News Essay

I will be discussing and comparing the codes and conventions in news, how the audience sees the news, how the show and people in the show are represented and how multi camera is used in a news show. 

I will be talking about codes and conventions on Outfoxed first, The opening scene of outfoxed is the author of the 'The problem of the media' I think this was a really good person to start the film on as it immediately says that this is going to be about problems in the media industry and on the news, He uses a metaphor for the problems we as public face in the media industry, the film then goes on to an animated TV that is sparking up and exploding, this is a very well done code and convention as again it is explaining that the media is wrong and is blowing up in all sorts of ways. 

The show uses a lot of animated pictures and graphs but I think this is a good way of showing us instead of telling us, the animated chart shows us 'Young Rupert Murdoch' and the years in which he did his first big things,
