Film Media in Context - Case Study


  1. How does the industry promote the film to the audience using: 
  • Print Media?
  • Broadcast (TV/Radio/DVD)
  • E-Media ?
Print

The link above is an example of a print media of the Men's Health magazine, which of an interview with  Ben Drew. In the interview, Ben Drew does talk about his film Ill Manors however, the interview mostly focuses on Ben Drew fitness as the magazine is about Men's Heath. This could promote the film to the audience because, the readers would have an insight of what Ill Manors is about therefore, they could be interested in watching the film.

Broadcast

The short clip above is an interview with Ben Drew on the Ill Manors premier. Ben Drew talks about Ill Manors and how it reflects society today, also he reveals the challenges he faces. According to the uses and gratifications theory the audience would be entertained and informed. 

E-Media

The link above is a interview with Plan B as he discusses his personal up bringing, his success and Ill Manors. This promotes the film as it informs the readers of what kind of person Ben Drew is and they get a insight of the film as well.


2) The key issue's of each platform is that there has been a decline and there has been some changes between each of the different media platforms. For instance, print media is not instant and free like e-media therefore, some people may favour e-media more compared to print.
