Radio Research Task

By google definition podcasting is "the practice of using the internet to make digital recordings of broadcasts available for downloading to a computer or mobile device"
However some may say that is a verbal movement forward from blogging. Podcasts allow people to talk about anything they want to and is much more enjoyable then reading another persons blog. This is different from traditional radio as radio is for repeated music and news every 30 minutes with some audience interaction.

Podcasts are much less equipment heavy and can really be done with a simple setup it can range from pre-recorded to live depending how the creator wants it whereas radio is always live and never has a video recording either. however podcasts such as Misfits and Impaulsive have video recordings allowing people to watch if they wish. 


Most Podcasts are promoted on YouTube or Spotify which is effective because if people search for a topic that relates then they may encounter the podcasts. 

Commercial radio is another name for private radio owned by corporate media for example LBC or Capital XTRA. On the other hand BBC is an example of public radio which is made by the public for the public free from political interference. The BBC's mission is to inform, educate and entertain. This is done by reporting national news (BBC News) to everyone whilst also trying to report on events locally (BBC London) by towns or globally by country. (BBC World News)

Vance Joy 'Riptide' and Taylor swift's 'The Man'

It's proven when the character does not have empathy for the other subway passengers because he thinks he is better than them i.e. ashing his cigar  into the old woman's bag looking impatiently at his watch suggesting he is used to faster travel.  However, there is also the stereotype of a woman wanting to marry a rich guy just for the money clearly shown in this shot when the girl doesn't kiss The Old Man and shows off her big diamond with a fake smile. Both these stereotypes seem like a representation of what women see men as (assholes) and what men see women as (something to own), Or this is used to make fun of how society represents capitalism between people of different classes.  In comparison to riptide by Vance Joy

Water aid advert - Rain for good - sticks' blog

water aid ad- rain for good   The ad starts off with a stereotypical English forecast of cold colours and rain. The setting is a middle class household in a suburban area represented by the digital radio, the green of the back garden and the small plant. The camera is set to watch out the window as if the audience was there avoiding the rain indoors and dis-regarding water as worthless using it to water plants. this scene only lasts for about 5 seconds before is switches to a binary opposite in rural Africa fading the sound of the rain to the sound of insects and dead plants.  Right after we are introduced to the main character. The girl Is not directly presented as a victim like other ads since she is fully clothed in bright pastel colours and looks generally healthy. There is warm lighting but in a dry environment with few trees and workers trying to still grow crops showing hope. The girl walks past other people on their way back from getting some water this journey is done whilst
