Swedish study probes moose migration broadcast appeal

Arts & entertainmentArts
Key Points
  • A pilot study will investigate why people watch moose migration broadcasts.
  • The research involves interviews and observations in Northern Europe and Canada.
  • Staff in Umeå control cameras in Kullberg forests for the broadcasts.

The project will involve interviews with the production team and viewers in Northern Europe and Canada, as well as on-site observations during broadcasts. In the TV house in Umeå, staff are on high alert and control cameras in the forests around Kullberg, with Håkan Lyktberg being one of many people working on the program. Viewers across the country follow the camera operators' work, and the tension for the producers is as great as for the viewers.

The SVT tradition is soon returning. Annette Hill is a professor in media and communication studies at Jönköping University.
