Institution

Making a media text is a very complicated process. In a media text you have studied explain how at least two institutional factors have affected this text. 6

Key Aspects of Media Literacy – reminder

1. Categories: how texts are classified which include:
Medium – television
Purpose – persuade, entertain, make a profit
Form – drama, light entertainment, series
Genre – soap opera, talent show, constructed reality.

2. Language: how the media creates meanings through the use of conventions. There are two main kinds:
technical (eg: camera angle, editing, lighting, sound)
cultural/symbolic (eg: dress, gesture, accent).

3. Narrative. Conventions of a soap involves the plot line detail of characters, setting and action as well as Structure – the organisation of the sequence (normality/disruption/new normality; single or multiple storylines; happy endings; cliffhangers)

4. Representation: how media texts represent places, people, events or ideas. Stereotypes/non-stereotypes.

5. Audiences: how the audiences are identified and addressed (target audience (specify), different audience reaction).

6. Institutions: how the production of the media output is organised and financed (type of production company, effects of finance).

7. Technology: how media products are created and distributed to the audience. Technological issues are not dealt with as separate but described when appropriate.

How do they make and distribute it? (Technologies)

Purpose

What is the purpose of your chosen media text – to inform, to educate, to entertain, to persuade, to make a profit? Choose any two and describe what is included in the text that illustrates its purpose.

You could also look up GoggleBox X Factor to gauge audience reaction to Sam Bailey but remember this programme goes out after the watershed and the language/comments are more adult than those shown on the X-Factor which is pre-watershed.

Setting up the shots

This webpage will take you to all the preparations needed for something that will last no more than a few minute on screen.

Time Vortex Outside my Apartment

The pictures have been taken by someone who lives nearby so the comments he made are not particularly relevant and you’ll need to be a redditor to get some of them.

Look at the costumes, mise en scene, camera tracks, lighting and camera rigs, crew…

What has been included in the narrative structure of your professionally produced media text which would make it appeal to a particular audience? (Audience should be specifically defined in terms of gender, age, special interest or ABC1/C2DE characteristics)
