Homework
How
does the channel 4 product use media forms to represent/brand the
channel itself?
The
inspiring advert was called "Meet the Superhumans" and formed part of
their promotional material for coverage of the Paralympics. I believe
that the advertisement produced by channel 4 about The 2012
Paralympic Games represented the channel. I believe this due to the
fact that Channel 4 isn't really a main channel and isn't as popular
as ITV or BBC, like the Paralympics isn't the most popular and
biggest game because the Olympic Games in general seems to be more
popular and a lot less people would watch the Paralympics compared to
the actual Olympics and Winter Olympics.
Furthermore,
I also believe that the advert represented channel 4 because during
the ad towards the end there was text that appeared on the screen
saying “its time to do battle”. I think that this quote
represents the paralympics and channel 4 as the athletes taking part
in the paralympics are battling the other athletes in order to get
the medals and win. However, I think that channel 4 are battling the
other channels on TV like ITV and BBC for views and their audience.
Also,
I think that the jump clips and the use of up beat music (song called
Harder Than You Think- Public Enemy) represented the channel because
a lot was happening and it was all exciting and you wouldn't want to
miss it.
At
the start of the ad there wasn't any music and there was just a
basketball rolling around on the floor, I think that this represented
channel 4 from the start when it wasn't popular at all and there was
no action and nothing was really happening. From then on with the
music and clips increasing pace and more action happening I think
that it was showing the escalation of the development of the channel.
