Technophobes

Audience:

}The program would appeal to teenagers and young adults 16-25
}Working class
}C2DE
Institution
}Just from knowing that the program will being showing on bb3 allows to know that  the program is most likely to do be a documentary to inform people. Its split into episodes to keep the audience interested and to carry on watching it.
}BB3 is also targeted to teenagers to inform them and let them know the pros and cons of different things e.g. drugs, sex
Media Forms:
}The codes and conventions that I would be expecting from a documentary are:
}Interviews
}Images (moving and still)
}Voiceover
}Theme
}Music
}archive material
}Graphics-credits
}single strand narrative
}Editing: cut is the most common edit because it then doesn't distract the attention of the interviewee.
}Voiceover is sometimes relevant depending on the topic-relevant age to the topic-standard English, calm and clear delivery. creative and varied camerawork.- conventional framing on the interviews with camera on a tripod and not hand held.
}camera movement: pan up and down, zoom etc.
}Graphics-anchor the person, time, places and relevance to the programmes topics-simple and usually two lines wrong.
Representations:
}Teenagers are portrayed negatively as they are seen as being ‘weird’ as the current generation and the next is highly influenced by technology. Therefore these teenagers will be laughed.
}From watching the first episode of the programme on BBC Three it has made me think about different types of people and how people are different in various ways. Before watching the show I used to think that everybody used to know how to work a computer in some way but after watching it, it had made me think about the people who cant and are just afraid of technology, It has made me realise that not all of society/people are the same and that due to different people upbringings and norms they may be undeveloped in some way.
