Türkiye'de Dizi Sektöründe ve Dizi Senaryosu Yazım Süreçlerinde Prekaryalaşma
(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2021) Efe, Tutku
Especially in the last twenty years domestic television series are among the productions that the television audience has shown the most interest. Nevertheless, almost all sector employees are being faced with precarious working conditions during the production process of domestic television series, covering the evening line of almost every mainstream television channel. This thesis focuses upon the forms of precariat experienced by scriptwriters by addressing the working conditions in the television series industry. In line with the research findings carried out within the framework of the thesis study, the main argument of this study is that the lead scriptwriters and the scenario teams working at a lower level in the television series industry have experienced the precarization process in a striking way. Within the framework of the thesis, with the aim of presenting the validity of the main argument, one-to-one semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with nine scriptwriters, and their views on their own labor processes were taken. In quantitative research, an online survey was conducted by reaching 125 sector employees, 79 of whom were scriptwriters.
