The document discusses UK censorship laws for music videos regarding depictions of drug use. It acknowledges that showing a character hallucinating after drinking and taking drugs would violate these laws. It outlines rules from media regulator OFCOM prohibiting glamorized depictions of illegal drugs, especially those that could be easily imitated by children. While the video depicts drug use, it claims this was only to drive the narrative and not promote drug use. It concludes that the video could air after 9PM during the watershed period without violating laws, and that music channels would be at fault, not the creators, if they aired it at other times.

Ofcom
OFCOM is the regulatory body that oversees broadcasting, telecommunications, and postal services in the UK. It handles complaints from consumers about content on TV, radio, internet, phone services, and postal delivery. For example, OFCOM will investigate complaints about racist, sexist, or religiously offensive content on TV programs. It works with broadcasters and producers to address issues and ensures compliance with content regulations. It also handles complaints about poor service from phone and internet providers as well as the postal service. Two examples are described where OFCOM addressed complaints about promotion of a music single during an X Factor program, and comments made by a BBC presenter that were deemed offensive. BBC broadcasting is also subject to strict rules around impartiality

3. Proper credit must be given to Lana Del Rey, Polydor Ltd, and Universal Music in any use of the tracks.
Student Film Permission
1. Universal Film & TV Licensing is granting Gabriel Kelly permission to use the Tame Impala track "Why Won't They Talk To Me?" free of charge for a student educational project in the UK.

Styles and techniques
The document summarizes key characteristics of products/services, regulations and organizations that govern television advertisements in the UK. The five main product characteristics are benefits, advantages, unique selling proposition, lifestyle appeal and brand identity. Clearcast examines ads for misleading, harmful or inappropriate content per its licensing agreement with Ofcom. The ASA deals with advertising complaints to ensure ads are legal, decent, honest and truthful. The BCAP code provides rules for ads, such as including qualifications and prices. Ofcom regulates communications and investigates complaints to protect viewers from scams, false ads or offensive material.
TV Scheduling
TV scheduling techniques include inheritance, pre echo, and hammocking. Inheritance involves airing a show of the same genre after a successful one so its audience will continue watching. Pre echo is the opposite, scheduling a show before a popular one in the same genre. Hammocking places a show between two others in the same genre to attract the target audience between the bookend shows.
Tv advert timeline
The first television advertisement aired on September 22nd 1955 in black and white and was 70 seconds long advertising toothpaste. Early advertisements were much longer than today and often featured known faces using and describing the advertised product. In the 1950s and 1960s, television advertisements were dominated by soap powder, food, and limited car and alcohol advertising due to manufacturer agreements. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, television advertising continued to evolve with the introduction of color television and new channels, and by the late 1980s interactive advertisements emerged. The rules for alcohol advertising in the UK are now among the strictest in the world, with advertisements not allowed to target or appeal to those under 18.
Censorship essay (2)
Censorship aims to protect children and vulnerable groups by restricting certain content but can also limit information and opinions. The essay discusses censorship in different contexts. Censorship of inappropriate internet content and media is generally supported to shield children, but banning books for adults is not agreed with. Censorship in education that only teaches one view is also problematic. Overall censorship is a complex issue with arguments on both sides.
Ofcom music videos
Ofcom has statutory duties to ensure under-18s are protected and generally accepted standards are enforced for music videos. Key rules require appropriate scheduling of videos according to their nature and audience. Sexual or offensive content must be justified by context. Before the watershed, videos cannot contain explicit sexual images or prolonged shots, nudity, or sexualized dancing. Violent content must also be limited and not imitable by children. Lyrics focusing clearly on sex are unsuitable, as is any combination that raises the sexual nature. Ofcom provides guidance but does not prohibit all themes, relying on careful presentation according to each video's context.

Magazine article semiotic analysis 1
The magazine advertisement promotes Chase and Status's new single "End Credits" which was created in collaboration with Plan B. The minimalist ad features close-up images of Chase and Status's heads alongside an image of Plan B in a crosshair shape. By providing little information other than the artist names, song title, and download details, the advertisement creates intrigue and forces readers to visit Chase and Status's homepage to learn more about the song and potentially download other songs as well. The simple color scheme and focus on contrasting black and white text and images helps draw attention to the key details being promoted.

The document discusses UK censorship laws for music videos regarding depictions of drug use. It acknowledges that showing a character hallucinating after drinking and taking drugs would violate these laws. It outlines rules from media regulator OFCOM prohibiting glamorized depictions of illegal drugs, especially those that could be easily imitated by children. While the video depicts drug use, it claims this was only to drive the narrative and not promote drug use. It concludes that the video could air after 9PM during the watershed period without violating laws, and that music channels would be at fault, not the creators, if they aired it at other times.
Semiotic analysis 3 - Sum 41
The front cover of Sum 41's album "All Killer No Filler" features images of young people making strange faces and acting in ways that rebel against societal norms, reflecting the album's themes of teenage rebellion and breaking from tradition. Though seemingly random, the cover relates to the album's exploration of individualism outside expectations. It may have also been inspired by the band's hit single "Fat Lip", the title of which connects to the photos on the cover.
Semiotic analysis 2
The album cover depicts a jumbled scene in a child's bedroom containing unusual items like a sheep, crow, pumpkin, and twinkle lights. This unconventional approach represents a sense of freedom and break from norms. While seeming playful, the crow and pumpkin also bring darker connotations of death and horror. The magical, space-like decor further promotes a strange, mind-altering theme. As this atypical cover does not feature the band or instruments like usual, it exemplifies the random, untraditional style the document recommends for original album artwork.
Semiotic analysis 1 - Muse
This album cover depicts four men sitting around a table on the surface of Mars. In the sky, the silhouettes of Earth and the moon can be seen next to the band's name in the corner. The orange Martian surface and blue sky contrast sharply with each other. The central image of the men at the table is the main focal point that draws the viewer's eye. While details are clearly visible, the overall meaning of the image is not immediately apparent.
Textual Analysis 2 - Daft Punk
The video for Daft Punk's "Around the World" features slow, steady camera movements that track various dancers through panning and zooming shots. This allows the viewer to take in all the choreography. There are also long shots that give a full view of the dance routines. The close camera work puts the audience in the action. The video only features the song itself with no other sounds. The choreography perfectly synchronizes with the music, with different dancer groups representing different instruments. The simple mise-en-scene of dancers on a record-like stage references Daft Punk's instrument choices. The lighting and color complement the aesthetically pleasing synchronization of dance to music. Minimal editing is used to showcase the full
Textual analysis 1 - Chemical Brothers
The video uses a wide range of camera shots and techniques to keep the viewer engaged, including many zooms to focus on specific objects. While the shots last a long time, the camera is always moving to reflect the fast-paced electronic music genre. The sound is simply the song itself, with no additional non-diegetic effects. A variety of indoor and outdoor sets are used, ranging from natural to artificially-lit locations like beds and clocks. Transitions between shots are always smooth fades, dissolves or zooms to give the impression of one continuous shot, keeping pace with the slow song.
Audience Research - Music Video Questionnaire
The document analyzes responses to a questionnaire about the music genre and themes associated with Daft Punk. It found that most respondents classified Daft Punk as electronic pop or dance music. Respondents felt Daft Punk was unique for not showing their faces and having a distinctive electronic sound. Common themes expected in their music videos included flashing lights, club scenes, and possibly robots or aliens. The meaning and emotions conveyed by their album covers were seen as negative such as anger, darkness, and relating to television.

Acknowledgement of music video censorship laws within the uk
- 1. Acknowledgement of Music Video Censorship Laws within The UK Dear Viewer We understand that a narrative of a character hallucinating after drinking and taking drugs would infringe upon censorship laws in the UK regarding the content of music videos which can be commercially viewed. These censorship laws were created by OFCOM who are the independent telecommunications regulator and competition authority for the communication industries in the United Kingdom. Naturally this covers media distributers such as ourselves as we are trying to promote a music video. Under their programme codes which act as guidelines and regulations for what can and cannot be shown on television, it states the following: • "Programmes generally should not include smoking and drinking unless the context or dramatic veracity requires it" • "Particular care is needed with programmes likely to be seen by children and young people" • "Care needs to be taken to avoid any impression that illegal drugs are an acceptable feature of modern British society, particularly in programmes of special appeal to children and young people" • "Caution should be applied to solvent abuse, and detailed demonstrations of methods of illegal drug-taking that could easily be imitated should be avoided." • "Drug and solvent abuse should not be shown in such a way as to appear problem-free or glamorous" We vehemently oppose the use of drugs and in no way endorse the use/consumption of illegal substances, although our video does show scenes of hard drug use, it was not intended in any way to be imitated or shown in a positive light. We merely used the drug references as a medium for driving the narrative of our video and we deemed the risk neccessary so that our production could be enjoyed, despite the scenes in question. In our country (United Kingdom)our television networks emply the use of a watershed which is a set time in which adult content can be shown on television. The period lasts from 9.00 pm to 5.30 am. In this period, our video does not infringe upon any laws regarding the nature of drug related scenes and so we believe that if a music channel was willing to show our video on their channels, it would have to be after 9.00 pm, so that they are not breaking any laws. We cannot appeal to the niche market because the eponymous song is a strictly main stream house genre song and would not appeal to niche market consumers in any way. In closing, Music channels can show our video after 9.00pm, during watershed period, anything before that time is the channels own fault for not adhering to censhorship laws and that we cannot be held responsible in any way for their actions, if some viewers find the video upsetting or distressing in anyway. Thank you for your time. Team Robot Rock Paul Henry David Neville Connor Joseph O'Sullivan James Antonio Presta and Jack Cherrington
