1. Plan b wanted to create a realistic setting when creating the film ill Manors because he set it in a council estate where he grew up. From this we can suggest Plan B wanted the film to be as realistic as possible and not have to decorate a random location in the East of London.
2. Ben Drew was eager in finding hidden talent from kids who lived in council estates. For the production for the film, he wanted to commence auditions in the local area of Forest Gate, East London. Therefore, we can identify Plan B's beliefs being portrayed as he attempts to improve their hopeless lives. This shows he is serious about aiding people living council estates through the production process of his film ill manors.
3. The documentary suggests the target audience is potentially for people who live similar lives to the artificial lives of the characters in Ill Manors. That would be strugglers from the phsychographics and some of the working class and unemployed citizens- demographics. I believe this because they would be able to relate to the film significantly with the sex, violence and drugs. Those three things are heavily linked with council estates which have now been constructed as stereotypes of those areas which has now become a dominant ideology. Also, I believe the film is supposed to send a message out to viewers which means there is a possibility people with opposite lives could watch the film in order to get a better understanding of the struggle of living in urban decaying estates.
4. Plan B successfully told the story of the outcaster's lives in society. The film allowed the viewers to build an emotional connections with most of the characters in the film from the prostitutes to the main characters. Without thinking, the viewers would have sympathy for the characters from the film because of their situation when they would normally ignore/blame these people who live those lives in real life. Their ideology could change because they were able to view the topic about council estates kids in a different perspective. Plan B said he wanted each character to display a different style of life but have them lead to the same place in life in the documentary because they are without jobs so have to make money illegally.
1. SBTV is a YouTube channel that uploads songs of hip hop from people with good talent. It gives these people a chance to do something good with their lives as they can peruse a career in the music industry. It was founded in November of 2006 by Jamal Edwards who was a teenager at the time. The channel became successful because he hosted artists like Dizzeey Rascal, Tinchy Stryder and Chipmunk which attracted a wide range of audiences who loved their music. The target audience is for people of council estates with difficult lives. From the phsychographics they would be strugglers and potentially mainstreamers because they would want to fit in with other people who like hip hop or live dangerous lives (young mainstreamers). From the demographics, some of the working class, unemployed and uneducated people are the target audience for the interview because they are probably interested in Plan B's Ill Manors. Also, his fan base would watch this as they are followers of his adventures.
2. The audience appeal for the interview would be the informal language used to represent a realistic setting and conversation. Its as if the interviewer (nobody) knows Plan B who is famous which would make the audience feel like they have an opportunity of meeting someone famous because Sean Sagar was able to.
3. Plan B is represented as an ordinary person because he acts and talks in a manor that his target audience would. It seems as if he wants to be seen as an uneducated person who was able to pounce on the slightest opportunity available to him and now he tries to influence young people into doing the same thing.
1. The Jonathan Ross show used to be aired on BBC One until he was released from them in 2010 because of the offensive things he had said. It now appears on ITV 1 on a Saturday night. The alternative audience to his music audience would be the target audience of the interview because they watch the show already. If they hear he will be on the show, it may persuade them to hear what he has to say about the lifestyle of council estate kids. From the demographics people of the working class, lower middle class and some of the middle class may watch this as they would watch the show or want to hear Plan B's views.
2. The audience appeal here is the interviewer attempting to understand the beliefs and ideologies of the celebrity. For example, Jonathan asked Plan B to explain what the Government are/aren't doing to help youngsters and why they are the blame for the riots. But also, the interviewer would shed some light on some serious stories to make the celebrity feel comfortable.
3. Plan B is represented as a successful man who started from the absolute bottom to turn his life into the right direction. The direction that has become a dominant ideology, success. Ben Drew does his best to protest (not very forcefully as its an interview) for people with very little hope in becoming successful . His ideologies are exposed and portrayed to the audience which is about helping council estate kids.
1. BBC 1 average listening figure in a week is 5.84 million. It is a popular radio station which can be accessed on the radio or online which makes it easy to listen to. The BBC 1 radio station has decline slightly because people are probably listening to other radio stations or more realistically, are downloading their own music via the internet.
2. The target audience for the radio station is for Plan B's fans base and people who speak like Ben Drew. In the psychographic group this would be strugglers because they don't have much, speak informally and are uneducated.
3. Plan B talks about his dedication in making the film Ill Manors. He talks about the opportunity he has provided the young kids of forest Gate.
4. This interview represents Plan B as a really hard working uneducated man. He spent a lot of time creating the content for his film, even creating a track in the morning to use for the film. We learn more about his lifestyle in this interview because he talks about what he has/had to do to be successful.
