General Realisations
A media product cannot exist without and audience. The products that the creative media create are all designed for a specific audience. Targeting the right product at the right audience in the right way is an important skill that all media producers must develop if their particular product is going to survive.
As i am an A level student television time is very vital for me but only occurs during my study breaks. I am interested in ll types of television. I like my programmes to teach me something but also entertain me and trigger my emotive side. I own a Sky television box set in the comfort of my bedroom although i do sometimes tune into my parents Iranian satellite based TV downstairs in the main living room. My favourite tv shows include My Family- a comedy series drama, The Young Apprentice-involving young adults taking on business challenges, this influences me and inspires me to push my self in everything i do. And my ultimate favourite EastEnders!TV drama acting out themes and issues of London society its on every night other then weekends and Wednesday evenings involving allot of cliff hangers and narrative hooks building up my profile as a media consumer.
Classification of audiences
Some target audiences are quite broad. Olympic Games, for instance, will target a mass market. Some products are targeted at a much narrower, specialised target audience and is often referred to as a niche market.
