Genre
The genre of
this series or clip is based on action and crime. There are slight bits of
comedy and romance but mostly it is based on investigating and action. Also,
the main line of the series is crime as it set in a prison and everything that
the characters do is a crime. This series is action because there is loads of
violence, minor swearing and other various things which wouldn't be scene in a
pure comedy series.
Audience
The audience
for this is going to be teenagers and young adults. It aimed at 15-35 because
there are mainly young adults in it. This series would appear more to men as it
based around men however some girls, like me, enjoy it because it is almost an
adventure. I think 70% men and 30% women. Also, it is made for older people
because of the content. For example, there is a paedophile which wouldn't
necessary appear in a children’s television series. Also, it is graphic; it shows a full murder, decaying body, dead children, someone being tortured and then drowned and one of the most sadness; a child being burnt alive which 100% wouldn't be floating around in a comedy.
Platform
This would
most likely be seen on a television, downloaded illegally or Netflix. Also, you
can view it on anything but those are the most common in this day and age. I
watched it on the television and then again of LoveFilm and then I watched it
again on Sky.
MUSIC VIDEO – HOLD ON WE’RE GOING

Genre
The genre is
a mixture of slow pop and blue as it is kind of sad and emotional. I would say
that the video is a mixture of romance and action. The main objective of the
video is saving the one you love. They use violence and guns which makes it
seem slightly action orientated.
Audience
The video is
for 13-35 and anybody who enjoys this music. However, Drake’s music is aimed to
teenagers and people the same age of him which makes the song appeal more to
people who like his music. The video is aimed to 20 years olds as it based on
that age of people.
Platform
This would
be viewed on Youtube and social media apps. Also, as it is a song, it will be
listened to on the radio and on music channels which are most popular for music
which is directed to this sort of generation of people.
ADVERT- EVIAN

Genre
This
particular advert is a comedy advert as it contains dancing babies which are
normally seen as comical. It is an advert which is funny to persuade people to
buy it and enjoy it and become a baby (subliminal messages). It is basically
saying, if you drink Evian water you will become younger.
Audience
This is
aimed at 12+ but mostly young adults who want to look younger
or are concerned about their age. It is a water brand which ‘makes people feel
young’ and lively. It is not only advertising water but also advertising the
brand.
Platform
This would be viewed on a device used for Youtube or sites where there is adverts used for buffer entertainment. However, the most common would be on a television as that is where most people pay to have there adverts advertised.
