Market Research- Product Placement

Market research is the collection and analysis of information about consumers, competitors and the effectiveness of marketing programs.the action or activity of gathering information about consumers' needs and preferences.about a product or service to be offered for sale in that market, and about the past, present and potential customers for the product or service; research into the characteristics, spending habits, location and needs of your business's target market, the industry as a whole, and the particular competitors you face.


ITV are the largest commerical broadcaster in the UK and are the most watched. in 2014 ITV aired the biggest new drama (Cilla), the most watched soap (Coronation Street), showed the biggest entertainment programme (Britain's Got Talent and I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here). The most watched programme last year was England V Uruguay in the 2014 World Cup which was shown on ITV.
ITV also reaches all key demographics:
85% of housewives
69% of 16-34's
77% of ABC1 Adults
75% of ABC1 Men
72% of 16-34 Women
99.4% of commercial programmes attract more than 5m viewers. 83% of ITV viewers watch for at least 20 minutes, making it very likely they have seen an ad break. ITV reaches 41.3 million viewers per week.
I would choose ITV to air my advertisments on because it has the largest amount of viewers in the entire United Kingdom and because most of the viewers watch the channel for more than 20 minutes which means that they will most likely be watching the adverts as well. ITV is well know for all its adverts so it will seem reasonable to put youre advert on ITV because your advert will get seen.


Around 99.4% of commercial programmes attract more than 5m viewers. ITV reaches 41.3 million viewers per week. While 83% of ITV viewers watch for at least 20 minutes, making it very likely they have seen an advertisement break

Market Research- Competitor analsyis



 
This Screen Grab shows us that Piracy is scary and evil and that it can cause evil problems if not used properly. The target audeicne for this advert will be 15-20 becuase this adveert has a look and feel for films they enjoy watching so they will take it seriously.

This close up screen grab of the mans eyes shows us whats wrong with piracy. The fire in his eyes shows his anger and thats whta happens when you Pirate makes everybody angry.

This Screen Grab shows a close up of the man holding a big red X which means that piracy is wrong and big X is clearly stating that this is wrong and shouldnt be done otherwise the consequences will be fatal.
This screen grab shows the man burning all the pirated DVD's to show the audience that they are no point being around, they are useless and cannot be used anymore.
 Anti Piracy Awareness
For the next anti piracy campaign, they have included celebrities ( Arnold Shwarzenegger and Jackie Chan) they have done this to engage the audeince becuase they are celebrites and they are well known. So people might look at this and think becuase celebrities are saying its bad must mean it is quite important.

The next screen grab shows a close up of Jackie Chan, this could also engage the audience becuase it is almost as if Jackie Chan is talking directly to the audience so it could give people the idea that Jackie Chan is physically telling you. People might ake more notice of the message.

This screen grab shows us how this advert has been inspired by the terminator by the use of the quote "Let's Terminate" and by fact the have got the leather coats, bikes and have the action of the cars, This just makes the advert seem cheesy and it doesnt really get the point across.

You Make The Movies
This website is filled with loads of different movies whic all in their own way get about privacy and they have used the way of the film to get their message across. This website will have a target audience ranging from 15-35. The text size and font they use stand out and is clear to read so big words and writing could comply the importance of maybe to watching theese videos.

Knock Off Nigel



This screen grab shows the end of an advert called "Knock-Off Nigel". This screengrab shows us that if you are downloading illegal movies then you are going to have a lot of people sorrounding you becuase it is illegal 

The Industry Trust
- A website with all the 'moments worth fighting for' inspires views to respect the value of creative content by showing audiences that films have an entertainment value worth paying for. One of these adverts is for The Hunger Games.










Use of audience reaction makes people want to see it in the cinema more as they can see how it is affecting those watching it.









-Entices the audience by making them think about the time and effort put into films, by saying its worth paying for.



Criticisms:
Some of the people shown in the adverts are the same people so they obviously haven't used a range of reactions from people. for example this lady comes up in a few different adverts.













- People won't see the adverts if they don't go to see a film in the cinema.

This information allows me to see what my comptitors advertisments are like and what makes them effective or not. This then helps me to decide what elements I want to include in mine to make mine the most effective anti-piracy advertisement

Exploring the Brief


Design an ident for a new digital TV channel, The Grid, due to launch next year. The target audience is 18-30 year olds and they aim to broadcast a mix of music videos, reality TV shows and youth-orientated chat shows.

      











As The Grid's target audience is 18-30 year olds, this is a collage of some of the most popular artists, TV shows and youth-orientated chat shows that appeals to them. As you can see from the collage above, I have included these because I feel that The Grid's target audience would best relate to them.
