industry and audience power essay

-

                                                

It is evident that audiences have more power over the rise of media through how powerful the internet has become over the years. From having just one channel on TV to having streaming platforms to watch over a 100 movies.

The changes that have happened to the music industry since the rise of the internet have been evident as on YouTube there is a different type of bands such as a bedroom band. Most artists such as Justin Bieber started out on YouTube and became famous for singing a Chris brown cover and Chris Brown himself contacted his record company and the company gave him a contract with him. Also YouTube is good as people who make music can upload to YouTube and has a chance of being viral or it could be lost in the archives of YouTube and in 7 years the algorhythm will put it into somebody’s recommend.

The changes of audience on the internet is evident as since the mid-2000s there has been a rise of social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter,instagram,MySpace,snapchat,discord and whatsapp. Also there has been a rise of streaming platforms such as Netflix, amazon prime video, Disney plus and now TV and with these platforms there has been an influx of binge-watchers as some of them like Netflix when they release a whole season of an original show such as stranger things as to releasing it episode by episode as it is more convenient then at the end of the season, the company makes a box set of all the episodes for people to watch on DVD and Blu Ray. The audience can also affect a film as it affects the ratings and the revenue and it also impacts the commercial success.

The disadvantages   of this is that people can hack it and pirate the movies or film it on their phone and send it to other people. Another disadvange is that if you have good internet when you are watching a TV show you might get the buffering which is fine for some people but if you are short-tempered you might get angry.

The changes of newspapers due to the internet is that print media is easy to access and you can also watch the news on TV or on a device instead of going to your local newsagents

 One  advantage of this is that it is more easier then getting it online   and you are watching on a small device instead of watching the news on tv 

One disadvantage of this is that if you do not have a device you might be forced to watch the news on tv or you have to buy a newspaper eg: The Sun,Daily mail this might be convient for some people who want to buy the newspaper rather then watching it.

so therefore, audiences have more power over the rise of media

GCSE Media Key Concepts

  Language this film poster reminds me of the 1975 movie Jaws . also on the bottem it shows who the actors are and the release date of the movie. Also, on the poster it shows 2 sharks trying to eat the diver which also is like the Jaws movie poster where the person is swimming and the shark is trying to eat the person. Industries the movie is made by  Warner Brothers Representation There is only one person on the film poster which makes it difficult to analyse the representation. However, the main star is Jason Statham and the character on the poster appears to be male so this perhaps reinforces the stereotype that action heroes are male. The sharks are represented in a very stereotypical way as they are presented as dangerous, hungry beasts. This is emphasised by the size differences of the sharks and person.
