Real Media Texts Essay

All types of media have certain conventions that need to be adhered to in order to be recognised as a part of their respective genre. Specifically to the film industry, there is the horror sub genre, and then even more specific sub-sub genres, such as Splatter, Slasher, etc. As a result, there are very specific conventions related to my media product, with the important factor being that the conventions take on newer meanings each time they are repeated or slightly subverted.  For my Media AS Level, I created a music magazine that exhibited various features and conventions due to me copying a current music magazine and using it as an inspiration.

Media Regulation Essay

Media regulation is a highly contentious issue today, with more and more people consuming media is very different ways. In its essence, media regulation is narrowing the audience that can consume a certain media piece based on primarily age, but some other factors can also come into the equation. The aim of this is to avoid certain people from witnessing potentially damaging things in the media that they will be consuming.  The BBFC are the main regulation/censorship body in the United Kingdom. They divide every film and TV show released in this country, as well as a large quantity of video games that have been released in the past, in addition to many music videos that are released. A primary reason that the BBFC are needed to regulate as appropriate is the fact that these types of media are present in the public domain. Many music videos will be played in cafes, gyms, hairdressers and therefore will leave a lasting impression on an audience if it is not appropriate. Video...
