The influence of the media on all our lives is enormous. We all watch films, television programmes and plays, and read books, comics and magazines. But who actually controls the media? Who are the people who give us our information, our books and magazines and videos? And how do they do it? "Media Story" explores all aspects of the various media, looking at the people involved in each industry and the jobs they do. Each book shows, in simple step-by-step sections how each medium is produced. Television and video are two of the most popular forms of modern entertainment. This book looks at how they can be both entertaining and informative, pointing out also that central to the making of any programme, is the audience it is aimed at. The subject matter should be relevant and be presented in an appropriate way. It is then up to the television company to show the programme at the peak viewing time for the particular audience concerned. The book examines the role of director, editors, sound engineers and so on, describing the work each job involves. The last chapter takes the reader through the process of making his or her own video.
