Wednesday 26th Jan - Copyright

 A few months ago people in twitch were getting copyright strike for playing music while streaming.   Google has filed a WIPO domain dispute against Youtubeconverter.io, a site that helped people to download audio and video from YouTube. In a recent filing sent to the UK Government, YouTube classifies the action as an anti-piracy move. In the same letter the streaming platform also notes that it is taking action against piracy tutorials and cheating videos.  Mash up - is when a user or audience member uses some copyright content in their own fan production or UCG production and puts it back on line - much like a montage https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-trending-51090857 This article mentions how 2 youtubers were copyright strike and sued  Wizard Story  1.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COMMERCIAL AND PUBLIC SERVICES

 Commercial : Channel : Fox Products produced by this channel include Fox News, Family Guy, Agents of Shield and LA's Finest.  Fox's target audience range from 13 to Adults.  There are many channels containing animation, comedies, dramas, news and information and more.  Programmes such as The Simpsons, Family Guy, Bob's Burgers, Bless the Harts, Duncanville are all on fox and these 5 are all animation based programmes. These target an audience of around 10+.  Task 2 There are many different programmes on BBC 2 such as Holby City, Snooker Championship, Bargain Hunt, BBC News, Flog It and more.

KTA 4 Genre question - Rainbow Six Siege

 The product i'm going to be analysing is a game called Rainbow Six Siege. This was made and produced by Ubisoft, a highly popular company founded in France. Rainbow Six Siege was released in 2015 making the game nearly 5 years old with constant updates to this day.  Rainbow Six Siege is a first person shooter and also a tactical shooter as you have to option to lean when fighting giving you an advantage depending on the situation. The concept of the game can be seen as quite easy but when you actually start to play it seems a-lot more complex. The game is a 5v5s shooter with one life, making you have to play strategic to not die. It contains an attacking team and a defensive team who will have to counter each other to see who will win.  The camera work in Siege is really good as it is a high quality game for the time it has been out and you also have operators in the game with in game cameras used to be thrown to scout an enemy.  You can have 360 degree cameras show...
