Abstract(s)
O TikTok, enquanto plataforma digital recente e popular entre a Geração Z, tem
um grande poder de autopromoção. Foram muitos os jovens que mundialmente, e de uma
forma inesperada, ascenderam à fama através da plataforma tornando-se microcelebridades,
fenómeno que também ocorreu em Portugal. Através desta investigação, pretende-se
compreender em que medida é o TikTok uma ferramenta eficiente para fins de self-branding
e autopromoção para os influenciadores portugueses na plataforma. As estratégias utilizadas
pelas microcelebridades, assim como as tipologias de conteúdos produzidos, e ainda as
vantagens e desvantagens resultantes das especificidades do TikTok foram estudadas. Para
tal, recorreu-se a entrevistas semiestruturadas a microcelebridades portuguesas do TikTok
(18-24 anos) pertencentes à Geração Z. Os resultados obtidos comprovam a eficiência do
TikTok no que respeita à profissionalização de uma carreira no mundo digital, resultante da
interface do TikTok, do conteúdo produzido que se revela humorístico, e ainda, da forte
comunidade construída através da plataforma.
