Music Video Forms and Conventions Audience Institution Representation Impact on professional: destabilised the relationship between producers and consumers.

Prospects for future: reinstated some of the key conventions..

Multi-Media Journalism Forms and Conventions Audience Institution Representation BA Hons Journalism and Communication Digital age: Traditional journalism competing with blogs, message boards, Amazon reviews, forums etc. Impact on professional: boundaries blurred between current affairs and entertainment. Traditional view: press as the Fourth Estate Prospects for future: multi-platform branding of old- guard. High quality journalistic = niche market

Television Production Forms and Conventions Audience Institution Representation Traditional view: Concept of broadcasting. BA Hons Media Production Digital age: Narrow casting. Multi-channelling. Greater audience interactivity (pressing the red button) + convergence Impact on professional: More television being made more cheaply, less freedom about its content. Reality television placing greater emphasis on audience participation. Prospects for future: YouTube, reality television reinforce old conventions. More sophisticated audience more receptive to hybridity.

Computer Animation Forms and Conventions Audience Institution Representation Traditional view: animation discrete genre of film-making - 19 th Century (flip books and zoetropes). Barthes: Animation supposes authorial creativity on the part of the audience in the form of the willing suspension of disbelief. Hebdige: Animation is a discrete sub-culture of the film industry with its own sub-genres. Anderson: Proliferation of New Media technologies has opened new niche markets for software and animation based film. BA Hons Computer Animation Digital age: Proliferation of anime. Domestic packages like GIF Movie Gear allowing audiences to produce their own animation for broadcast on YouTube Impact on professional: Convergence of animation with special effects in mainstream film is opening up new cinematic possibilities. Prospects for future: Amateur productions e.g Anime pop music videos widening audiences for animation films.
