2.1 EXTERNAL 3 CREDITS Media Studies (2.1): Demonstrate understanding of the relationship between a media product and its audience

What do I have to write about in the end of year exam?  EXAM QUESTION: YOUR DISCUSSION SHOULD BE BETWEEN 600 AND 800 WORDS.  Discuss the relationship between a media product and its audience. In your answer, you should:  describe at least ONE aspect of the relationship  explain how and why this aspect connects the media product and its audience  examine a possible implication of this relationship  include specific evidence from your chosen media product to support your answer.

What is an aspect?  Characters  Special Guests  Issues  Music  Scheduling / Channel placement  Hammocking  Advertising

Describe a media product:  The media product we are studying this year is Glee.  Glee is an American musical comedy-drama series. It was released on American television in 2009 and is now in its fourth season.  As television programmes are created for a commercial purpose they are not valued for their artistic value but rather for their sale-ability or viability in terms of generating ratings. To achieve these ratings media products are often designed with a target audience in mind. The more a media producer can know about an audience, the better that audience can be targeted.

Who is Glee’s target audience?  Advertisers and media producers believe that consumers can be sorted into groups with common characteristics. The way audiences are identified and grouped according to isolating characteristics is known as demographics. This includes aspects such as age, gender, ethnicity, income, occupation, religious views and education.  ACNielson, which is the largest market research company for media in New Zealand, uses the Target Audience Grouping System (TAGS) to categorise audiences into demographic segments. The area which the Glee audience seems to fit best is Young Hopefuls. This accounts for the age group who have active lifestyles. They are active consumers and have a high television-dominated media usage. There are also elements of the ‘Struggling Young Families’ grouping where lifestyle is centred on family and kids and parents are extremely budget conscious.

Why is this important?  Media texts produced on a commercial basis will use such information to shape their product in a way that appeals to that target audience. It is important that media products reflect their target audience in some manner in order for that target audience to be able to identify with, enjoy and find benefit from that media product. The larger the target audience the higher the ratings will be and subsequently the earning capability of the show.

Who is Glee’s target audience?  In summary, the target audience for Glee is young men and primarily women, between the ages of 10 and 39. More specifically the show is aimed towards high school students, teachers, young couples or families and music lovers. This can be seen by the way Glee uses humour, the characters in the show, music choice and also in the types of issues raised in each episode.
