Ill Manors: Broadcast platfrom

DVD extras
What does this tell you about plan B's intentions in make the film?
Plan B's intentions for the film were to make us feel something towards the characters in the film as this happens in real life and so the audience can be aware of what really happens, making them realise that being a member of a notorious group or doing anything dodgy can lead to many implications and so it and so it may change peoples thoughts and perspectives of how they view life.

What do we learn about the production process in ill manors?
In the making of ill manors we learnt many things about the films process. These are that it was cheap to make as Plan B had a low budget because he couldn't afford to pay for the high equipment and so as the background music he used someone rapping rather than using instruments...........

What can you tell about the possible target audience for this short documentary?
The target audience for the movie is mostly aimed at teenagers and over who cannot read or write. This is due to the fact that the characters within the film have a role which are based around people with low intellectual and social development which attracts these people as they can relate to it. Also, as it is set in a derelict and run-down place, the audience instantly realise that it is aimed at individuals in gangs.

Does the film successfully do what the director Ben Drew (Plan B) set out to achieve? Explain your answer with reference to both the film and making of documentary.
I think the film did successfully do what the director set out to achieve. This is because in the DVD extra he talked about him wanting to make the audience feel something towards the characters within the film, he doesn't care what they feel, but as long as they feel something, he has achieved what he was intentionally supposed to do. Plan B has achieved this as the audience felt sympathy towards the characters, making them realise that this is serious topic because it happens in real life.

Much of the content contains unprofessional footage or freestyle rap music videos. However, even though it is earlier uploaded videos contained entirely amateur footage, the channels latest uploads contain professional recordings.
The audience for the channel is aimed mostly at the younger generation as they are the ones who are interested in the latest gossip rather than the older generation.

What is the audience appeal for an interview like this? How does the opening of the clip emphasise this appeal?
This channel is aimed at teenagers as firstly, the presenter is young and secondly, the news they present to the audience appeals to the younger generation rather than the older generation. In the opening of the clip they are trespassing on private property when they shouldn't be. This emphasises the appeal as youngsters may also do this too just to have a bit of fun or just for the sake of it. It also engages the audience as they'd want to know if they get caught or not.

2) Identify the target audience for this interview (demographics/psychographics) and say why.
The target audience would be interpreted as 16-40 years old. This is because the teenagers would be interested in the celebrities being interviewed, such as Rihanna, One Direction and Lady Gaga. The older generation would be interested as Jonathan also interviews important people such as David Cameron.Additionally, because of the rioters and not having answers, Jonathan Ross had an episode which was covering the issue and so attracted more of the older generation. 

3) What is the audience appeal for a programme like the Jonathan Ross show?The Jonathan Ross show interviews many famous celebrities, such as Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Beyonce and this would be the reason as to why teenagers are interested in the show. The show is on every Saturday night which means it will have many viewers as people usually spend their Saturday nights at home just watching television. The show has also had many old actors and politicians and this would attract more middle-aged/middle-class people who have an interest in politics and the economy.

Radio

1) How popular is BBC Radio 1? Find average listening figures for the station. How has the BBC Radio 1 audience declined over recent years? Why might this have happened?
BBC Radio 1 is a British radio station operated by the British Broadcasting Corporation which also broadcasts internationally, specialising in modern and current popular music and chart hits throughout the day. Radio 1 provides alternative genres after 7:00 pm, including electronic dance, hip hop, rock, indie or interviews. It is aimed primarily at the 15–29 age group, although the average age of the UK audience in 2008 was 33. The time people spend with the BBC – on both radio and TV – has declined, as it has for other major broadcasters, probably as a result of audiences having a wider choice of entertainment of all types.

Plan B played a big role as he had directed, filmed and edited the film. The idea of him being so involved would attract his fans more as they know how good his music is so they would believe his work for the movie would be amazing too.

4) What representation of Plan B can we find in this interview?Plan B gives an insight of his lifestyle to the audience and describes how he's been sleeping on a sofa based in his studio because of the time and effort he's put into editing Ill Manors.
