What happens at the start of the show ?
At the begging of this show there is a jingle sound affect , the DJ was talking really fast , the voice said "radio 1 " then he introduced himself . In this show there are voice overs , jingles , old pop music in the background , upbeat voice and posh , tone upbeat keeps us interstead , the audience is a young . This show is a mainstream show at this time .

This second link shows a chart show in 1985 :

In this show there is only 3 years different between the first link but alot has changed :
The DJ talks more slower and doesn't have such a posh voice/ more upbeat , the jingle has created a more relaxed feel , the music is more slower . There is no musical accuplement for the countdown chart before in 1982 radio show but in this show it has . 
How Has the music changed ? 
 the music genre has changed becuase this music is funky disco pop which connotes the chart shows was mainstream at that time .
 How does the radio show beging ? 
The Dj goes straight into the chart show and plays the songs in the charts at that moment. The Dj's fast pace/ average pitch up beat with a presentational voice to keep the viewers entertained. The tone of the show is fast, up beat, chatty and entertaining with a feel good vibe and energy. Also the music is a bit more slower which creates a relax feel / atmosphere .  


This third link shows a chart show from 2011 more uptodate :

This link is from 2011 (in January) there is even more changes through the years ; this clip is a video clip but where as the others there was no video . The DJ is working out the celebrity guest conversation , there is no music in the background or audio sounds/ affects , the sound quality is more clearer , morden music  sounds, watch onine (synergy- different media/companys comes together. )
How the radio show starts and what mood does it create  ? 
The very first thing that happens at the beginning of the chart show is the Dj introduces the show with no jingle/theme tune or music which gives a more sophisticated, modern feel compared to the cheesy jingles in the 1985 version of Radio 1's chart show. And a more relaxed / easy listening feel where as the other clips did'nt create .    
What are the difference and why ? 
In this show the audience has more interaction with the show where as in the previous shows the audience didn't have that . This is because of the special celbrity guessed that the DJ "Reggie Yates" has to guess , which the viewers can also do and find entertaining .  
How has the technology changed over the years ? 
The technology has changed over the years becuase now we are able to watch online , like this clip but compared to the other clips you was unable to watch online or listen back . 


This final link shows a webpage for a chart show :

this final link shows a webpage it has different links such as  Home , DJ & shows , News , Chart , Playlist etc. This website lets you listen back to previous days and see whats songs are in the chart at the present time . This page will appeal to alot of younger people as they are a mainstreme audience to both internet and radio 1 .

work Evaluation

In my group was Rianna , Alex , Shafique , Amber and Jay ; we had to make a three minute video . The rule was we had to do a 180 degree angle , we decided to make a video with a teacher telling of a student . The positives about our video was that we worked well as team and we done it quick , however in our group we could have improved by making sure that all our framing was correctly and made the astract abit longer . The framing of our shots was wrong becuase in the close up there was too much head room and to much body shown .As we watch our video back we realised  this was our room for improvement , and help us to realise to take our time and take more shots of one scence .
What is the 180 degree rule ?

Google definition: The 180° rule is a basic guideline in film making that states that two characters (or other elements) in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other. If the camera passes over the imaginary axis connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line.
 An example of when the 180 degree rule is used is in the film Sherlock Holmes. There is a prison scene when Sherlock and Watson are at first talking and then begin to argue, but because they are sitting back to front from one another, the camera cuts from close-ups of the two characters. The reason why it works is because the 180 degree rule is used so perfectly and creates the correct effect 
on the audience.

This is what the 180 degree rule looks like from a birds eye view.

The way to think of it is imagine that there is a visible line cutting trough two characters exactly down the middle of there bodies .

Different types of Media

Modern media - Gives a on-demand access to certain types of media on a digital device, anywhere or anytime, things that are under the modern median category are social networking sites, Blu-ray Disks, iPhones, iPads etc, Modern media is simply advanced types of media and technology. 


Mediated - is a edited or manipulated version of a media texts. Example of this is 'live at the apollo' 'big brother' and 'match of the day', they are all cut and edited to give someone or something a specific repetation or intereptation by the audience. This makes the show more appealing and shows the best bits of the show instead of the whole thing . 


New media - is products and services that give us information and entrainment such as the internet and not by the traditional way such as newspapers or television . 


The media doesn't present reality ; they re-present it becuase we are not granted the worlds reality , such as in magazines , celebrities , programs , the radio . They show us "mediated" versions , not the whole story of reality .
