Introduction

Welcome,


My name is Prachi Dhimmar, aged 17, and currently a student taking the media studies course. Within this course I have been given a brief in relation to our coursework which will show the skills and creativity that I have to produce a final outcome.


This blog is a record of my media coursework which consists of the brief: to create an audio-visual sequence from a created television programme and associated print materials to promote the same programme. Throughout this blog you will be able to see the steps I take in making my final outcome and how I have done this.


Thank you,
Prachi Dhimmar

The show has a variety of achievements such as becoming the world's longest-running tv soap opera and the most watched programme on British television, therefore is quite respectable. The show averages 8 million viewers per episode. I decided to watch Coronation Street as it is one of ITV's most well known shows and in terms of my coursework I may make something similar to it. I think a soap opera would be a good genre to look at as on both ITV and Channel 5 there are a few soap operas (e.g: Coronation Street, Emmerdale, Home and Away and Neighbours) which already gain praise which means that there is an audience which enjoys them.
