Coursework preliminary exercise planning

 For my preliminary exercise, I intend to create a short film that explores the theme of connection in a digital age. The narrative will follow two characters who, despite living in the same city, only interact through their devices. I aim to juxtapose their online personas with their real-life struggles, highlighting the isolation that can accompany technology. The film will employ a mix of visuals and sound design to evoke emotion, aiming to provoke reflection on how we communicate. Through this project, I hope to experiment with storytelling techniques and develop my skills in cinematography and editing.

The char...

Newspapers: The Times - Audience and Industries

      1) What is the main readership demographic for The Times newspaper? Add as much detail as you can. Their main readership demographic is older people as generally newspapers are normally read by older people. People with a high social class might also read the Times and the news in it is mainly targeted to upper class people. The earnings for the Times reader is probably high as their news is targeted to people with high earnings and the Times is also a broad sheet. 2) What aspects of the front page of the Times CSP edition suggest that their readers are likely to be more educated and interested in hard news rather than entertainment?
