Well done for completing the sixth form covers and contents, they look great.
We now need to turn our attention to the Music press.
Today we discussed:
the record industry used to work and why its in crisis today- new technology=means of production & distribution in the hands of the creators, but fall in CD sales means not as much revenue to encourage and fund new music.
Read this article
that explains how falling sales have led to record shop closures.
We also discussed the importance of music in Youth Sub culture
I would like you to read both of these articles and note down at least 3 points that you find of interest onto your blog. You should also provide links to them.
You also need to buy a music magazine that you can scan and annotate. You can't do what we need to do with a download from the internet, you need to look at a magazine, cover to cover.
We now need to investigate the concept of 'audience' in more depth and you need to start thinking about what sort of genre and TA you will be targeting.
