Abstract
This article maps out the international scientific output in Cinema, Audiovisual, and Animation in the Scopus database. It uses bibliometrics as its methodological approach. Our research identified a diversity of publication languages, with English being the most commonly used language. The article was the dominant documentary typology, followed by the review, which may indicate a publication trend in the area. Among the publication vehicles, journals from the United Kingdom and Spain stand out. The countries with the highest number of publications in Cinema, Audiovisual, and Animation differ from the general ranking, and Brazil and Spain stand out when it comes to publications on the topic. It is concluded that production in the area, which began in 1980, has been growing slowly but steadily, especially since the 2000s, predominantly in the areas of Arts and Humanities, and Human Sciences. This research presents a broad and international view of the topic and suggests new studies in other databases as well as in specific countries.
