This year, the Technodiversity project comes at the end of its implementation. Besides the dedicated e-learning platform, and Technodiversity booklet, one of the important results of the project was the production of scientific audio-visuals aimed at exemplifying and explaining the main sub-processes relevant to forest operations, in a harmonized way of presentation. The project consortium has succeeded to produce a number of 47 high-quality-media scientific audio-visuals, accounting for a total duration of close to 5.4 hours. These files cover the main description of the processes by a functiogram, the typical work cycle as of the depicted sub-process, and an audio-visual representation of the action in each sub-process by integrating video, media and voice components. A full list of the audio-visuals is available for watching on the YouTube, covering, among others, operations carried out with chainsaws, fellers, processors, harvesters, chippers, horse logging, farm tractors, cable skidders, grapple skidders, clambunk skidders, forwarders, sledge yarders, tower yarders, and processor tower yarders. The duration of the produced audio-visuals ranges from 3:59 to 11:19 minutes, averaging 6:52 minutes. This work presents the
rationale behind the development, materials and methods used in their development, and the structure of audio-visuals…
