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)

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 don...

Stick's blog- dizzee rascal dream

  Dizzee Rascal Dream Dizzee rascal is a grime artist who created a pop-hiphop-grime music video talking about his success and a message to inspire the younger generations. The surface of the video is a light playful setting created by the kids building blocks and the fact that dizzee comes out of a jack in a box. There is a story created of a classic lower-class urban area all on top of this woman piano as dizzee raps his lyrics. Puppets are introduced which are stealing a tv and then fighting the police this compared to a usual grime video doesn't not present itself to be as threatening and seems almost childish because of the light representation this could both be dizzee poking fun at grime culture and bringing awareness to the upper class.  As we look deeper into the video we realise that all the puppets have strings attached to them in this old white woman's home who is presented as a normal human size. the stri...

  MOCK EXAM PAPER 1 SECTION B ( Film Marketing) a) What is meant by an independent film ? [3] An independent film is made by people who do not work for big companies and usually with smaller budgets and lesser known stars these independent film producers usually don’t have as many fancy films and they also have to advertise it themselves across social media or posters. They may get funding help from people within the community if people are interested. Also independent films may not even be released in cinemas all the time and people may have to resort to free viewers to grow a reputation. b) briefly explain what vertical integration is.
