Class: Audience and Industry blog tasks

Audience:

1) it got 820000 i believe it did so bad as it was shown after 10 where most people or teenagers would either be sleeping or in their room.

2) Young adults and Teenagers 

3) personal identity- Being able to relate to the fact that April's Dad isn't there for her which many people can relate to not having a dad who is their for them.

Personal Relationship- The personal relationship could be with someone like Ram as he is seen as a bit of a mean and unlikeable character but slowly you begin to see a good side of him and begin to like him.

diversion- Corakinus's world can be used as escapism as its in another planet that does not exist.

Surveillance- There is not much that you can take from it educationally or generally.

4)We get excitement from this show (the use of different relationships between people building up.

5)

industries:

1)To educate, entertain and inform.

2)BBC3 went online in Feb 2016 because young people don't tend to watch tv.

3) It informs you of struggles of some teens go through. it educates as it takes you to outer space and you can learn about space it entertains as its a series that keeps you hooked constantly.

4)The distribution of class contributed to the failure of the show, as it was shown online.

5)Shown in America, where it was more popular. I believe it was not successful as in America they most likely did not know about BBC1.

Comparison: An Unearthly Child and Co-owner of a Lonely Heart

1) The camera work in Doctor Who was shaky because they done it by hand compare to Class where it is much more steadily done because of stands and tracks. The sound is more realistic in class compare to Doctor Who.

2) In an unearthly child, the design/layout of the TARDIS is like a spaces ship (alien like). 

E.g. the design pattern on the wall of the TARDIS is like small lights which give a feeling of Sci-Fi. 

Whilst in Co-owner of a lonely heart there is the futuristic weapon that Ms. Quill has and there is the blue orb which gives a felling of Sci-Fi.

3) In an unearthly child they meet the remit of educate and entertain whilst in Co-owner of a lonely heart they only entertain. An unearthly child educates about science, history, space and time travel and it is entertaining for the audience. In Co-owner of a lonely heart there is only entertainment for the audience as it is aimed at 16-34 year-old. 

4) In an unearthly child the representations of women are put as inferior towards men. This can be seen in when Barbara and Ian are in the junkyard and the doctor keeps looking at Barbara ignorantly and keeps talking to Ian "Young man..." Whilst in Co-owner of a lonely heart the women are superior. This can be seen when April is looking down and shouting at her farther then threatens to attack her. In Dr. who there is not that much diversity, there is only white middle-upper class actors/actresses. Whilst in Class there are BAME and white actors/actresses from all backgrounds and classes.  

5) Both Dr. Who and Class have forms of diversion and entertainment as it fills their time in, it is relaxing and is full of enjoyment for the audience.
