Television/film/video producer
in this role i would be in charge of the production from start to end, a producer is in charge of funding, raiding it, spending it and sticking to a budget. the producer is expected to make the production good because if its not the producer is the one who suffers, he'll find it harder to get funding for other projects and such. Qualifications/skills are optional but are communication, media studies, photography/film/television experience, information technology/multimedia, broadcasting. this job revolves partly around people you know and people you could meet but TV stations higher producers to help run things.

Freedom of information is a part of the freedom of speech, which is a human rights principle this entitles people to be able to say anything they want and not get in trouble. Freedom of information has one difference, it has to be the truth or else its slandering. The most commonly known profession to use freedom of information is a reporter, for TV or a news paper.


Censorship is the complete opposite of freedom of information, censorship is used to block any delecot information like military positions in letters going home just in case the enemy get a hold of it.

Task 3: Purposes of research (matt)

Audience data is the count of housholds that view a program within 7 days of airing

Audience profiling is a range of infomation on the viewers, the pofiling is broken down by Demographic profiles (age, sex, income and education) this is so new programs can see if they are hititng thier target audience.

Consumer Behaviour is about, supply and demand and finding out where abouts sertain products would sell better.

Advertising placement or Product placement is a form of advertising where product or brand is placed in view in a movie, play or any other form of visual entertainment. The is done for financial gain for both companys.

Product reach is to do with the distrabution of the product and if its meeting the target audiances needs, which is why audience profiling is needed.

Competitor analysis simple is all about keeping one step aheadof rival companies, by keeping records of Background, Financials, Products, Marketing, Facilities, Personnel, Corporate and marketing strategies

This Story behind pixar (steve)

Pixar is a CGI animation/Motion picture company, which started in 1979 called Graphics group, this was founded by Ed Catmull and Alvy Ray Smith. Febuary 3rd, 1986 a man named Steve Jobs decided to invest in Graphics group but he had it renamed to pixar. for 20 years Steve Jobs ran "Pixar as its owner and Ceo placing around 50 million into the campany, but after 20 years he sold pixar to "The Walt Disney Company" (the current owner) for 7.4 billion. Pixar opened up thier own branch in 2010 called "Pixar Canada"

Funding for Pixar comes from the fact that pixar have yet to release a movie that doens make them money. other then profits money comes in from The Walt Disney Company, companies who wish to hire Pixar to creat shorts or adverts. Pixar also sell Computer Producs called, Pixar Image Computer and RenderMan

Pixar is the leading animation company since it creted its own systems and then sold them for profit which means they didnt keep up with how technology is advancing, they acctually advanced it them selves. Pixar have been releasing thier films in IMAX, Disney have said that all of thier 3D films will have 7.1 surround sound which is the latest technology.
