Discuss the ways in which the candidates’(this is you) own experiences of media consumption (how you use, access, and produce) illustrate wider patterns and trends in audience behaviour.
Media Area: Film I consider myself an avid consumer of film, as I aim to watch at least a handful of movies a week when I’m not busy with other responsibilities like schoolwork. I watch many of these movies on streaming services that I’m subscribed to, like Netflix, HBO Max, or Disney+ to name a few. This represents a wider trend among audience behavior, that of shifting towards new, internet-based means of media consumption like streaming services, over traditional ones like movie theaters or DVD’s. However, while I am a supporter of streaming services, I also enjoy collecting physical media in the form of Blu-rays and DVD’s, mainly because I enjoy owning the content I consume. While this definitely isn’t a wide-spread consumer behavior, physical media sales have been gradually declining for years after all, I would say it illustrates the formation of niches when it comes to consuming media, which has become increasingly common in recent years due to the internet.
