Media institution ownership (BBC)
Timeshifting - recording of a programme for it to be rebroadcasted by its parent channel at a later time (after the live broadcast). E.g. ITV and ITV+1
Public service broadcasting (PSB)
- Programmes are made for the public meaning there are no advertisements
- Usually transmits programmes aimed at improving society by informing viewers
- PSBs also aim to entertain their viewers
- BBC remit (the responsibility of a programme) - To enrich people's lives with programmes and services that inform, educate and entertain. 'To reflect the UK, its culture and values to the world'.
Funding
- 75% of the BBC's funding comes from the license fee
- A TV license costs £147 per year for a coloured license
- The remaining income (25%) comes from commercial activities such as worldwide sales of its programmes publications such as Radio Times, Good Food etc
Structure of the BBC
- The BBC is a cross-media organisation (not just TV)
- It is vertically and horizontally integrated
- Vertical integration is when a media company has the ability to control the production, distribution and exchange (consumption) of a product
- Horizontal integration is when a media company has a number of subsidiary companies that are used to support the marketing of its products
BBC case study Doctor Who
- Synergy: Companies which are both vertically and horizontally integrated are able to create synergy (meaning working together) across their output. This means they are able to promote their output (e.g. Doctor Who) in an efficient and profitable manner, whilst at the same time creating a recognisable brand.
Trailer analysis
Good! You have written some clear, concise notes here and I like that you have used a highlighting tool to emphasise some key words. The use of images will help your revision process too.
ReplyDeleteIt is clear that you have focused on cinematography throughout your textual analysis and what you have written is good, HOWEVER you haven't applied it to the actual text.
For example - Why has a crane shot been used? How does this link to 'Doctor Who' and the audience?
As you haven't yet analysed sound or editing within the two textual analysis tasks I'd like you to deepen your understanding pick either sound or editing and make some notes about that using the 'Doctor Who' trailer - think about WHY it has been used, what the connotations are and how it links to the audience.
If you need any help, please come and ask me.
