Detailed Doctor Who Analysis

Genre and Audience Pleasures:

 Rick Altman argues that genre offers audiences a set of pleasure:

 Emotional Pleaures:
  • How does the text make you feel? - Happy, sad, nostalgic etc.
Visceral Pleasures:
  • Gut responses such as excitement, fear, laughter.
Intellectual Pleasures
  • Does it make the audience think?
Sounds:
  • Starts with loew brass instruments 
  • Chabges to flutes and higher woodwind
  • Voices over the top of the backround music
  • Whistles
  • Computer sounds
  • Carnival music
  • Calm music in the backround
  • Diegetic sounds - people talking 
  • Non-diegetic sounds - sound effects, instruments
  • Narration voice - non-diegetic 
Cinematogrophy of Doctor who scene:

Shots:
  • First Scene - Two Shot, it shows facial expresions, body language, the setting and the two main characters.
  • Second Scene - Long Shot, showing whole bodies of multiple people. They show case the jobs and inportance of certain people
  • Next Shot - Zoomed in shot from previous, showing the people steping out the car - suggests importance
  • Next scene is a long tracking shot that zooms in as they walk down the hall - the camera movies with the character down the hall way, shows that we are following them.
  • Next shot is the medium zooing into a close up of the cube - the problem, the women looks upset which could suggest that it is a bad problem, but the fact that the Doctor is there means we know it will get fixed
  • As we track the charaters it cuts to a close up of the cubes and then moves into a crane shot showcasing many different boxes containing the cubes meaning there are more than one problem that needs to be solved.
 Angles:
  •  Second Scene - Low angle shot to easy show who is closer and the importance of the people steping out the car.
  • High angle shot from above them - still tracking as we are follwoing them through the castle
  • High angle showing all the cubes in there containers
Camera Movements: 
  • 3rd shot is zoomed in camera from the second - still angle shot
  • Zoomed in medium to close up
  • Zoomed - Crain

Kerrang! Magazine - Ownership

Ownership: As of April 2017, Kerrand! Magazine, webdsite and music awards was sold by Bauer Media Group to Wasted Talent, formerly Mixmag Media. Bauer Media will retain the rights in the UK and Europe "to continue broadcasting Kerrang! radioand Kerrang! TV". Perkins said that it was important to keep Kerrang ! in print "as the soul of the brand". Moving Kerrang ! from a weekly to a monthly made sense as it was a better use of editorial resources. "It doesn’t need to be a weekly because news in this area has gone digital. If you’re in LA, Kerrang! is a really well-loved [digital] brand.” Kerrang ! "has been suffering" by putting a lot of its resources in "a relatively low-production, weekly print magazine in the UK”. History of Ownership: 1981 – published as a one-off supplement in Sounds newspaper Initially, it was launched monthly, before going fortnightly; in 1987, it went weekly.
