Institutions and Audiences Essay Question for Homework

This week I'd like you to focus on the following question;

Refer to the area of FILM media;

How far does digital distribution affect the consumption of media texts in the film industry?

Things to consider
- what are the changes to distribution in the past 10 years?
- what are the pro's and what are the cons of digital distribution?
- Netflix and the rise of online streaming
- Personal studies on audience
- your own experience of  media consumption
- Audience trends, stats and figures that show how people are consuming digital media
 e.g. - how many people own devices that allow digital formatted media consumption
        - how many illegal downloads occur in your case studies?
        - how was the audience able to view your case study movies? (at the movies? online?)

- how do target audiences influence or be influenced by digital distribution? *(are all generations tech savvy?)
