COVID-19 halted social activities across the planet; including sports. The pandemic caused an unprecedented crisis in the audiovisual media that broadcast these events, which found themselves with the immediate need to restructure their content offer, for which they had to innovate in their production and programming processes. This research aims to describe the innovations in audiovisual journalistic production applied in sports media in various countries during the crisis caused by COVID-19. To comply with this, the qualitative approach was applied with the semi-structured interview technique to a sample of producers, journalists and filmmakers. The interview was oriented according to the main constituent stages of audiovisual production, such as pre-production, coverage and post-production. Based on what has been studied, it is concluded that the global crisis caused by the pandemic encouraged innovative techniques for audiovisual production, conceived from technological hybridization. From this angle, it was possible to continue producing content that, at the same time, presented changes in its audiovisual narrative structures and originated the creation of new formats or the reuse of audiovisual files that each channel used to generate updated content.
