1. In your own words summarize each of the three aspects of Media Triangle?
Audience- Is basically who is watching the commercial.
-Who would you convey your message to?
-How does it make you feel?
-What race, culture, gender, would find it appealing?
-Who is the target audience for this text?
- How can I change the text to make it more enjoyable?
These are types of questions you must ask yourself before doing a commercial to making successful.
Text- Text is very important in a commercial it gives your whole commercial. These are the questions you must ask yourself.
- What kind of text is it (i.e. magazine, poster, book)
- In what way does the media text tell the story?
- Whose point of view do the value represent?
Production- Who produced the media text and for what reason?
- How was the text made?
- What production techniques are used?
- How is the text distributed or sold to the public?
2. How do the three aspects relate to each other?
The three aspects of a commercial relate to each other cause they need each other to succeed. Like how text and audience relate to each other like if the text is offensive the audience won't appeal to it. Also how production needs text like you can say a line in a movie but without music, lighting, it won't sound as humorous, or sad as it is suppose to be. So these as apects of media need each other to succeed.
3.Which side is most important for the advertiser to understand?
I think the most important side for the advertiser to understand is the audience because they have to see which gender, race, culture, target audience they are reaching to, and so they have to try to learn everything about them so the commercial won't be offensive, will be appropriate.
4.Which side is the most important for the consumer to understand?
The most important side for the consumer to understand to understand is the production because when we music, lights, and special effects, the message seems to get across better. For example like you can have no text but with amusing music, and funny movement it could be hilarious! Or when you have a very serious scene you can dim the light for all seriousness.
