Stacey Dooley Kids selling Drugs Online;
Stacey Dooley is a 30 year old, TV presenter and journalist from Luton. Her first documentary aired on BBC Three in 2009.
The BBC is a public service broadcaster and is funded by an annual television licence fee.
The documentary shows us Stacey Dooley's journey into discovering more about kids selling drugs through online sources. She interviews a selection of people from the suppliers to the dealers finding out a bit about their lifestyle and why and how they do what they do.
From the title to the uses of Snapchat screenshots in the back of some factual screens we can tell it would have an appeal to the youth.
Stacey also presents her information in quite urban areas, dressed in quite casual clothing, making it quite relatable to young people. Adults would also be targeted for this show, maybe those who have teens themselves or would just like to become more knowledgable on the situation. The quick texts that come up on the screen giving us statistics and important information keep us as the audience interested as we would otherwise become disinterested hearing the presenter speak out a whole page of statistics and facts. While the Scottish drug dealers are speaking, we see subtitles for their speech, implying the targeted audience (people from London) would find difficulty in understanding them they speak. However even though the presenter herself, Stacey has a regional accent we don't see subtitles suggesting The upbeat music at times reflects the fast pace flow of the show. This also relates back to the target audience being for young people.
Repetitive mentions of the reason behind the show also keep the flow of the show and can inform viewers who have tuned into the show halfway through.
The structure of the show allows us to see the journey alongside Stacey, we get to see and hear things for the first time just the way she is. Unscripted shows allows us as the audience to feel the show on a more emotional level. The low down almost unprofessional camera angles also gives it a more personal aspect when she is giving the audience her feedback and opinions on what she's seen.

Gogglebox:
Gogglebox is a reality show in which we see viewers reviewing tv series from the week.
We see many a family reacting to the shows and giving their own opinions.
We as the audience also get to see snippets of the shows they watch. On initially hearing of the show where family's are being filmed watching shows with a voice over that describes what they're doing, we may think it to be slightly boring and pointless. However after actually watching, it can be quiet entertaining. It's interesting to see when some of the families or friends have the same views as you. This along with the close up shots make it feel very personal and as if we are watching along with them.
As the viewers are watching a variety of shows from Strictly come Dancing to the Secret life of the Zoo, to the News, there isn't really a specific genre to the show which would keep the audience intrigued every week. Instead of watching the entirety of shows we may not like we get to see snippets of the best bits along with quite comedic comments from the people on the show. The show can go from quite serious to humorous very quickly, again keeping the genre very different and reflecting real life.
The families all come from different backgrounds, for example one family lives in Cambridge and another in Derby. By including groups of people from a variety of areas, a wider audience is reached and allows them to relate to the people in the show.
Using a good range of ages as well as different ethnicity's and class also helps reach a wider audience.
By letting the audience have an insight into the viewers homes, it allows us to see they're home lifestyle which is something some viewers may find interesting. We also get to know a bit about the participants while they have conversations amongst themselves about things that are not to do with the shows they watch. As the viewers are on the shown repetitively throughout the series we begin to feel closer towards them and have different viewings and opinions of the families. Just as they are reacting to the shows, we are reacting to them.
There may be similarities to the audience and viewers which may keep them tuning into the show weekly as they feel they know them slightly.

Kingsman and Moonlight comaprison
Kingsman(2014) shows the journey of a young man from a working class family transform into a sophisticated man of power. Similarly, the 2016 movie, Moonlight shows us Chirons journey through life. Both movies have similar characteristics, one being both male leads come from broken families. It could be said they faced the challenges they did because of the fact they had no real father figure in their lives. Although Chiron had Juan and Eggsy had Harry they both died leaving them to face their obstacles by themselves.
Masculinity plays a big part in both movies, Eggsy and Chiron both have quite big transformations before their seen as "masculine" and taken seriously. Eggsy changes up his style into a more formal attire of a suit and tie whilst Chiron is seen to have bulked up quite a lot from his younger years. This representation of masculinity sticks to the basic stereotypes of the qualities associated with the word. We can see form Eggsys behaviour at the start that he's quite comfortable with his masculinity before he changed whereas Chrion was very reserved due to the bullying he recieved because of his sexuality.
Use of camera angles and shots in Kingsman sticks to those of a general action, comedy, movie with the fast paced shots and zooming to capture the major action scenes. Moonlights camera angles are quite close up making it more personal and as if we are experiencing Chirons life with him.
Kingsman: 7 wins and 26 nominations
Moonlight: 215 wins and 259 nominations
Estimated Budget:
Kingsman- $81,000,000
Moonlight $1,500,000
Kingsman; 15 filming locations
Moonlight: 5 filming locations
Kingsman had probably aimed for a very wide audience of Comedy and action fans, and perhaps Colin Firth fans while Moonlights targeted audience may have been

weekly news
weekly news.
Following on from my last weekly news about the famine in Somalia and the hashtag that was spread to raise money to fill the plane that would be sent to somalia, the people who created it have reported that 60 tones of food was able to be brought with the money that was raised. After 50,000 people particpated and over £1,500000 was raised, over ten planes were able to be filled and instead of just food, a long term solution for sustaining water supplies is being organsied. There will also be a documentary created where we will see the whole journey and see the good that the money raised is doing. I think its really amazing what good social media can actually do sometimes, without it I don't believe that they could have raised as much money at all. Its also good that we will be able to see what the money is actually going towards and if its making a difference. Its nice to see that people on social media with a large following are using it for good. Compared to some charities, i feel as if its much easier for people to trust these online influencers as if they've been following them for a long time they may feel as if they've grown to know them. Also when they keep everyone updated its easier to see whats actually happening whereas i don't think some charities show people the end result of the chairities work.
