Representations - Gender

How I Met Your Mother
This is a telvision program which shows women in a negative way , because it makes her come accross as controlling and bossy and only her opinion matters.She doesn't even give a thought into Ted's views or anything
.

Representations - Sexuality

Skins
Skins is a television program which in one series was based on two lesbians who keeps worrying about if there social groups are going to treat them with less respect and differently because they are gay .This is a positive view because its making them connect with the viewer a they are made to come across as down to earth and north people with problems

Entertainment

The x Factor

el

The X Factor is a very popular program ,  a lot of people watch it for entertainment as it gives you an insight into all different kind of peoples lives .(This links to social integration). They give you an insight into certain peoples live when they interview them and ask them information about themselves. This is entertaining as a lot of the time the x factor shows you the lives of usual people not the normal type of person , they do this so the audience will laugh and find it entertaining. Some people only watch the x factor because as soon as its on its the topic of conversation. The entended audience is everyone as there are so many different kinds of people everyone can relate to someone and it suits all different kinds of age and class. Any class may watch the x factor as it has a revariety of people on the show showing all different classes.

Information

BBC News

 


I have chosen BBc news for information because the news is one of the main television programs which gives out the most information , most people can relate to the news because it tells you information from people all around the world ,  making the audience gets an insight into other peoples troubles and lives which relates to social integration. The class which is most likely to watch the news is upper class as they like to know information about the lives around them and the world.The age in which who would wath the bbc news is the older generation and adults.There is not a set gender who watch the news as it is for everyone.

Personal Identity

Personal Identity means when the person identify's themselves as a part of a audience for example hollyoaks.

I feel I would identify myself as part of the audience because Georgie shore has young adults in  it so they aren't much olde than myself also i feel i can relate to how they all argue in there house as they are all very opinionated . I like how it has all types of people in there , they aren't all perfect , its entertaining to watch as they don't act there age they act younger . The intended audience is people in the early 20's . The gratification which the program meets is social integration as georgie shore gives you an insight in circumstances of the peoples lives , it shows you their behaviour and live style they live.The class which most people would of thought to be associated to this program is middle class people because upper class people would not find watching people in a house arguing and having no respect for themselves is a good program to watch. I would say there is not a particular gender who watch this program as in the program there are males and feels so each gender can relate to at least one person.

Media Studies      Induction Task - Target Audience

The television programme which I feel is relevant to this target audience task is Celebrity Big Brother . This is because It has a variety of different ages of people and characters in it, so then there will be a lot of different ages watching it , also different nationalities will want to watch it as the big brother included a wide range of nationality in the house .

Celebrity Big Brother I feel for the target audience would suit a lot of ages because in the house there isn’t just the same ages there is people who are young adults , mid adulthood and even older so then many people can relate to the program . However I don’t feel the old generation would appeal to watch big brother due to they would not find it relevant to them as there is nothing particularly interesting to watch for them as all you are doing is watching people just like us but who are celebrities sitting around and talking. As well as this many adults who do not want the soaps would not feel the need to watch the program because they would not be able to understand and connect with the people in the house as they wouldn’t know anyone so then they would feel it’s a waste of time watching a program which would have nothing to do with them. However with the younger generation even if they don’t watch the soaps they may still feel the need to watch it because it is the talk of conversation now days for the younger people so you can tell people who you want to win and who you most dislike and they will feel included in the conversation and not feel overwhelmed as they don’t know what there friends are talking about .The scenes which will justify my answer is on every friend there is a live eviction and its shows you all the people who are cheering and chanting outside the house and if you look at all the people outside the house you will relise most of the ages are all young adults you do not see many of the older generation or infact older adults there unless they are family with one of the celebrities in the house and still then its most of the younger family there, This proves that its mainly the younger generation which get involved with big brother .Inclusion I think for the target audience based on all the evidence I think is mainly for the younger generation as they have no concept of ringing in and wasting money on voting for people where as the adults would feel they have worked for there money just to ring in and make a person win big brother just so they can get more money .

The nationality which celebrity big brother provides for is mainly the British people because in the house at the start 13 people go into it and out of the thirteen this year there is only like 3 which aren’t from Britain . This shows that the nationality is mostly for people in Britain . A good intense scène to show this is when everyone first comes into the house mostly all the Britain people get cheered but when the other nationalities come into the house they can get booed this is because a lot of people do not know who they are and will have only heard or seen about them in magazines which now days may not send off the good message to the public so they won’t want to watch a program with people if they don’t know and can’t relate to who them . This is why I think the nationality is most for British people as there is never a lot of nationalities in the house and if there is they never seem to win it so it shows that British people will a lot of the times only won for British members in the house.

There is not a certain target audience in gender in who watches celebrity big brother as there is many different genders in the house , this is a good thing as then everyone in the audience can relate to at least one of the celebrities and can feel included also if there was only one gender in the house then it could become sexist and not as many people would watch it so then the program wouldn’t get as much money. This is why the programs wants a large ranger of genders watching the show and in the show so then everyone can feel accepted as if there is a celebrities in the show which is like them then they can feel more comtable within themselves also it will make them want to vote that person in the house so then the big brother get more benefits out of it .

My Favourite Film


My favourite film is Titanic , this is because it makes me feel so much emotion and its based on a true story. I thought the actors who played the main roles Kate Winslet & Leanardo Dicaprio were suited extremely well to play Rose and Jack.
