"Deixa ela jogar" : um podcast sobre mulheres no universo game.

Abstract

This essay is the production report of the podcast 'Deixa Ela Jogar' (Let Her Play), developed as a Course Completion Work, with the main objective of clarifying that the ability to play, produce, and consume games is not related to gender. With that in mind, the podcast adopts a more relaxed interview and conversational format, in which the hostess talks with guests. It is divided into three episodes, with an average duration of fifteen to twenty minutes each, addressing three sub-themes: female players, games, and companies. The goal is to share experiences of female protagonism in the gamer universe and promote the debate about gender bias in games through the podcast. The podcast is understood as a format that facilitates the exchange of experiences, particularly among women involved in the gaming community who have experienced sexism in this context. This work contributes to strengthening the presence of women in Paraíba's gaming scene by providing a platform for dialogue among local players.
