In this weeks Digital Media Cultures lecture we were given our essay questions to look over and decide which ones we will pick. Here's the list of questions:
- How are public service broadcasters responding to the challenges of the contemporary media industry?
- 'Developments in digital technology are democratizing the media industry' discuss.
- Choose one area of the cultural industry and assess the impact that the internet has had on the way that particular industry operates.
- Outline and discuss the shifts in the relationship between producer, text and audience. Your work should acknowledge recent theoretical shifts in audience studies.
- Analyse the impact of formats on the TV industry. Your essay should also analyse debates that relate to the potential social and cultural impact of formats on audiences.
- Analyse the relationship between developments in media and the processes of globalization.
- 'The pursuit of profit has become the driving force in the development of media and has ultimately had a negative impact upon culture' discuss.
- Outline and discuss the impact Apple have had on the contemporary media industry.
- Choose one area of the media industry and assess how the shift from analogue to digital has impacted upon the industry.
Although I would like to begin looking to choose a question I would like to write my essay on, I think that I my leave my decision a little longer. We still have a long way to go before the deadline and as we haven't had all of the necessary lectures to give an informed decision I think choosing so early on may be a mistake. Although I have highlighted the questions that I found interesting just for myself.
