Task 10 - Niche Audience
A niche audience is a small, selected group of people which share a very unique interest. This may mean in television programmes, films etc but can also in the main public eye for example, products you can buy in normal stores.
Personally, the types of media texts that I consume which are targeted at a niche market, are programmes which would include information about Norwich. Normally, Norwich is seen as a place to mock and ridicule the population from being brought up in the area. For example, in comedic programmes, such as Live At The Apollo (Marcus Brigstoke and Russell Howard) and also Alan Partridge like to do this frequently.
On the opposite side, there are some programmes which specifically are selected for an audience maybe for different cultures and being an equal amount of races into it. For example, In Eastenders there are many different races which show different cutltures and could also be played around with the show stories, For example, gay relationships with a muslim and christian which helps show contriversy in problems in religon.

Task 8 - Morley Ideas of Gender Differences
Morley's ideas of gender differences were clear to him in the use that people made of the media in their everyday lives depending on their gender. Morley found out that men tended to prefer factual programmes such as the news and documentaries whilst women preferred fiction soaps and other drama series. Also, men preferred watching the programmes extensively whilst women tended to be doing something else at the same time. Another thing that Morley found out that if anybody had control over what was on the TV, it would most likely be the man - due to the stereotype of that man is the most dominate in the family/household. This means that it may of changed in the more modern times.
But, this doesn't necessarily mean that there are fundamental differences between men and women. What it does relate to though, is the kind of lives that the different genders lead. For example, men often work during the day which is outside of the home, therefore television is seen as a form of relaxation at the end of the day. For women, on the other hand, the home is seen as a place of work and therefore, that work will continue during the evening when television is switched on. Again, this is still looked on as a stereotypical view. Also this idea is classed as out of date and therefore the research such as Morley's if carried out today would come up with quite different conclusions.
We interviewed many people ranging from different ages and from both genders to see how they feel about television and specifically on Morley's ideas in the present day. We asked teenagers how they felt about the whole situation. Lee Cooper answered our questions which will be soon added to our blog. We also, asked Emily's mum (Sam Dimas) exactly the same questions which will also we added to our blog to show our differences.
Surprisingly, there was difference between the two members of the public. This looked into the two age groups so looking at the contrasts from different ages and gender. In some parts of the interviews in which we went away with, Morley's ideas were accurate to a degree but due to the way in how people live and the modern technology today, it changes the way in how his ideas are seen and put forward.

Setback on Filming
Due to different personal problems, the dates in which were able to film were unable to film so we have had to change how we are going to do it. Hopefully, we are going to be able to film the rest of the filming as well the 'redo' of the first scene again this Sunday (6/2/11) and then we will be able to finish all the main project filming then. This means, that we will be able to edit all of the project on the Tuesday or if it goes over then we will be able to do the editing on Thursday. After that, we will be finished on all of our main project. From now until Sunday, we will be making blog work a main priority so we can get that finished and out of the way.
