Part 2:
What is an E-sting and what is its purpose?: An esting is a ten second long ident which is created by people willing to create one for E4. Their purpose is to associate that program with the short clip by using E4's logo.
Genre: Comedy/surreal, due to the woman partying with sweats then at the end being licked by a sweet.
Audience: Young audience 15-30 year olds
This Esting shows an old lady in a sweet shop, licking an E4 lolly before being somehow sent to a sweet party on a higher shelf, and then she is picked up by a large E4 lolly man and licked, his reaction to the taste is bad.
Genre: Comedy, Due to the animation style and the face plant at the end.
Audience: Young to middle aged audience 15-40 year olds
This Esting shows the so called evolution of man, where a fish evolves into a man, and at the end as the man has evolved he face plants the floor.

Bruce,
ReplyDeleteYou have covered everything needed here and the post is nice and concise, however, you must add a little more detail in certain areas as you are missing the 'why'.
To improve:
- change program to programme (program relates to computers / software)
- you state who you believe the target audience is but you need to use terms such as demographics and psychographics and you need to say WHY you think the stated audience are, in fact, the target audience.
This will bump you up to a D.
