Textual Analyse



Genre
The genre for The Hobbit is action-adventure and fantasy as it contains dragons, dwarves, elves and other unrealistic things. It is action-adventure because it contains violence, death, travelling through different realms.

Audience
The audience for this clip is for people older than 10 so 10+, the reason why I think this is because if it contains violence and death then it should not be suitable for people under the age of 10. The gender I think this should be suited for is mostly boys as they mostly like fantasy films like Star Wars, The Lords Of The Rings, Harry Potter etc etc. This is mostly watched as a family movie as most families like to watch this for family entertainment.

Platform
We can view this clip by watching it on our phones, pc, laptop, tablets by using YouTube or other types of video viewing websites.

Why I like to do media

The reason why I chose to do media studies for my GCSEs is because I thought it was going to be fun and interesting as you can edit videos, film them and analyse them. Another reason why I chose to do media studies for my GCSEs is because I can make films and edit them to what I/audience want it to be like. I really like acting so when we can do films I don't mind doing any role that isn't too stupid or not to my liking but will do any role. I also chose this for my GCSEs because I would get to know new and more people from different years and also my year. I also chose to do this as a GCSE course because we will get to work in a team most of the times as I am a good team player and a good sport.
