- Responses were mixed on whether enough facts/statistics were included in the documentary.
- Most respondents said they would recommend the documentary to others and felt the subject was relevant to the target audience.
- Feedback on marketing materials suggested improving image selection and shortening written content to better engage younger audiences.
The respondent received feedback from 20 college students on questionnaires about a documentary, radio advertisement, and digital press summary they created about body confidence. Most felt the documentary effectively showed body confidence is a larger issue and recommended it to others. Feedback indicated adding a bolder title screen and improving synergy between products. Overall, the responses showed the content was relevant and engaging but could be strengthened by clearer links between elements.
The combination of the company's magazine, documentary, and radio advertisements was effective due to elements of synergy between the products. Still images from the documentary were used in the magazine to give readers insight into its content. Additionally, quotes from interviews conducted for the documentary were featured in the radio advertisements to grab listeners' attention. However, the documentary's title was printed in small font in the magazine, weakening the synergy by making it difficult to notice. Overall, the synergy created a noticeable relationship between the products so audiences would know what to expect from each.
- The feedback from 20 survey respondents provided useful insights for improving Finnlea Murphy's documentary, radio advertisement, and double page article about body confidence.

This document analyzes the consistency between a documentary, radio advertisement, and TV listings magazine promoting the documentary. It finds that the three products were generally consistent in their color scheme, title, voiceover, music, images, and target audience. However, it notes that the radio advertisement could have been clearer in introducing clips from the documentary and that adding an identifying icon may have strengthened the "brand identity". Overall, the TV listings magazine was deemed most effective at promotion due to its clear information and inclusion of important images from the documentary.
This document summarizes a magazine article that was created to advertise a documentary. It uses several forms and conventions of real magazine articles. These include things like columns, images, captions, pull quotes, different typefaces, page numbers, and following the house style colors of the magazine it aims to replicate, Radio Times. The article provides an overview of the documentary, details about its channel, time and title. Overall, it replicates the typical style, layout and elements found in real magazine articles to advertise the documentary.
The combination of a documentary, double page spread, and radio trailer were mostly effective due to elements of synergy. Images and audio from the documentary were used in the other products to provide sneak peaks and generate interest. However, the effectiveness could have been improved by clearly stating the documentary name in the double page spread, which risks the audience not knowing what it is advertising. Including the title would have made it obvious the products were connected.
The document analyzes three radio trailers that were studied as examples to help create their own radio trailer. It summarizes the key elements found in each trailer, such as use of sound effects, music, ambient sounds, various voices, and tone of voice. Studying these professional examples helped the group understand conventions needed for an effective radio trailer and apply those lessons to influencing the creation of their own radio trailer.
The document discusses the effectiveness of combining a documentary with ancillary texts such as a radio trailer and TV listing. It aimed to maintain tone and style across products to promote the documentary. The radio trailer used audio clips and music from the documentary to match its serious, informative tone. The TV listing featured photos and expert quotes from the documentary. While the products established a clear identity and brand, the document concludes they could have been more appealing and effective at promoting the documentary if less focus was placed on continuity between products.
Philip Costin used various new media technologies throughout the research, planning, construction, and evaluation stages of his project. These included blogs, presentation platforms, video editing software, audio editing software, and graphics software. He found some technologies like PowToon and Prezi allowed him to be more creative in presenting his research. While learning to use hardware like cameras and microphones took more time and practice, using various software helped him improve his IT skills and allowed him to effectively complete the stages of his project.
The document summarizes feedback received from an audience focus group on three media products: a radio trailer, magazine, and documentary about healthy eating.
The feedback was mainly positive as expected, with a preferred reading of the products. However, the radio trailer was seen as more different than the other two. The focus group enjoyed elements like sound effects but felt the background music was too loud and sound inconsistent.
For the magazine, they liked the layout, colors, images and design as anticipated. One person suggested making the writing bigger. Overall, the focus group agreed the products targeted younger audiences and had a consistent topic of healthy eating. The documentary and magazine were seen as working together best while the radio trailer was less connected.
In what ways does your media product usea2media14f
The document compares the conventions used in the author's documentary to those used in the film "Supersize Me". Some conventions that both documentaries followed include using an opening title, vox pops from the general public, expert interviews in mid shots slightly to one side, facts and statistics, and background music. However, the author notes ways their documentary could be improved, such as making the title more graphic, interviewing a more diverse range of people, and being more creative with sounds. Overall, following conventions helped make their documentary seem professional for their target audience.
This document discusses how a media product challenges and develops conventions from real-life media. Specifically, it describes how a magazine TV listing was constructed to be similar to the Radio Times but also made some changes. It used conventions like captions, mastheads, and pull quotes from Radio Times issues. However, it developed conventions by placing captions under the main image rather than separately and putting the broadcast time under the standfirst rather than in the corner. It also challenged conventions in its side feature column by including a pull quote and focusing on one topic with one image rather than multiple subsections and images.
In what ways does your media product usea2media14f
The document discusses how the author's documentary follows conventions of real media products like documentaries. It compares elements from the opening of the author's documentary to the documentary "Supersize Me". Elements like the title screen, use of vox pops, voiceovers, expert interviews, graphics, facts and statistics, archival footage, and background music are discussed. The author notes how their documentary adhered to many documentary conventions but also omitted some like using an on-screen narrator.
The group narrowed down their documentary topic ideas to three options: healthy eating, exams and revision, and perception of teenagers. They decided against other ideas like jobs, travel, and general college lifestyle because they seemed too basic or popular. The group wanted to avoid popular topics being done by others to maintain a unique documentary.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Summary: The main controversy of the documentary is about social media. From the
beginning, the documentary presents it’s biased opinion as against social media- using the
line ‘some of us are just one click away from a c*ck-up.’
3. The first minute of the documentary:
The opening 10 seconds
• There is a pan of somebody using a computer and it’s slightly blurred.
• There are also some effects- a spark noise is used which resembles an electrical fault sound.
• There are wipe transitions leading you from one clip to another. These clips are used in a montage.
• There is an over–the-shoulder shot of somebody watching a child on a computer, and a shot used
involving lots of screens, with different forms of social media on them.
• There is then a fade out to the title screen.
Sound used
• Just a voiceover is used at first, then vox pops are introduced.
• Most likely, the questions asked for the interviews were: what happened to you on social media?
What did you post which you regret?
• The voice over provides facts and immediately provides a biased opinion ‘some of us are just one
click away from a cock-up.
• They have used non-diegetic music (a woman singing, pop song) to begin the program, leading up
to the title screen. There are also zapping sounds (like electrical fault). It then changes to upbeat
high pitched music.
Facts and stats: ‘There are over 750 million of us with facebook on phones’, ‘6 billion hours of video
watched each month on YouTube’.
Vox pop: There are vox pop interviews as a montage involving people who have been in trouble with
social media- posted bad things which have got out of hand- medium close ups, medium shots, zooms
into their face.
4. Images used

Green Boxing Club- relating to the boxer Curtis Woodhouse.
Sound used
A voiceover is used as well as the voice of Curtis woodhouse describing his negative experience of
social media.

post about you? John Pegg, trainer was probably asked how Curtis reacts to mean twitter posts.
There was a voiceover throughout this time period, except when interviewee’s were speaking.
There is upbeat music when introducing Curtis woodhouse- the boxer- alongside a medium long shot
of him boxing--the music matches him punching- therefore the sound is synchronous. There is a ‘Ping’
sound as a mean tweet appears on the screen. Also, sad, low paced music plays after Curtis discusses
the mean tweets he’s received and when the voiceover mentions Curtis losing his English boxing title.

• The interviewer is not heard, but questions have been clearly asked to direct the interviewee on
what they should discuss. The question which is likely to have been asked is: what happened
when you drove to Sheffield to find your online hater?
• At this point in the documentary, there is an upbeat tone as the boxer drives along the
motorway towards the house of the mean tweeter. This is an example of asynchronous sound as
positive music is mixed with the negative atmosphere of the documentary.
• There are also non-diegetic pinging sounds of the twitter posts whilst he is driving.

21. How has this research helped me?
This research into documentaries has allowed us to
discover the codes and conventions of documentaries
similar to how we want ours to be. This has enabled us to
prepare and plan for filming with a clear indication of
what a documentary is supposed to look like. By studying
each minute of the first 9 minutes of documentaries
closely, I could see the conventions used to introduce the
documentary, which we can take on board during our
own work. As well as learning codes and conventions, I
have become aware of shot types and angles used to
effect the audience in certain ways. I also discovered how
mise en scene and sound are used to create effect. For
example, parallel sound- fast pace music used alongside a
happy image to create a sense of happiness for the
audience.
