Resumo: The representation of trans characters in media is historically scarce. Even for authors who intend to expand the gender spectrum in their characters, a proper representation of trans people may be challenging, requiring research and reflection over the theme. This paper describes a case study about an animation called Sam’s Story, which approaches the trans theme, in order to provoke important aspects for reflection. The objective is to encourage a critical reflection on authors who are willing to make their work more diverse by representing trans characters. We analyzed the metaphors used in the animation, the translation of life experiences of the trans people in the scenes, the overall message of the animation and its artistic content – both visual and sound.

Mesmo para autores com intenção de ampliar o espectro de gênero na representação de seus personagens, representar adequadamente personagens trans pode ser desafiador, exigindo pesquisa e reflexão. O presente artigo descreve um estudo de caso sobre uma animação chamada Sam’s Story, que aborda a temática trans, de forma a elucidar pontos de reflexão importantes. O objetivo do artigo é fomentar a reflexão crítica por parte de outros autores que queiram tornar suas obras mais diversas ao representar personagens trans. Foram analisados os cuidados para com um tema sensível como esse, assim como as metáforas utilizadas na animação, a tradução de experiências de vida de pessoas trans em cenas, a mensagem geral da animação e seu conteúdo artístico - visual e sonoro.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2021-05-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/article/view/3701410.5433/2236-2207.2021v12n1p327Projetica; v. 12 n. 1 (2021); 327-3482236-2207reponame:Projética Revista Científica de Designinstname:Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)instacron:UELporhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/article/view/37014/29212Copyright (c) 2021 Projeticainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGorges, Maria Eduarda BeckerAlbuquerque, Rafael Marques de2021-08-25T20:03:40Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/37014Revistahttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/PUBhttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/oai||projetica@uel.br2236-22072236-2207opendoar:2021-08-25T20:03:40Projética Revista Científica de Design - Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)false
