the structure of the creative media sector


There are approximately nine types of industries within media, they are: Film, Television, Music, Print, Computer Games, Advertising & Marketing, Interactive, Press and Radio. The Film industry and companies such as DNA, Columbia Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures make products like films and documentaries. I think Warner Bros. Pictures make the most known and the best films such as Superman, Batman Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. All these films are box office hits.
Companies and Television such as BBC, ITV and Sky make products like News, Drama Documentary, Comedy and Music.
 The Radio industry produces Music, Talk, Drive-Time and Soap Opera. These come from Radio stations like Classic FM, BBC radio, Emap and Virgin.
Music Sector and Products has Commissioned Music and some of the companies that music is listened to are Emap, Zomba Music, Carlin Production Music and Conrad Productions.
The Print industry has sectors products like Posters, Flyers and Books. Press is one of the most important industries in Media, this is because they report news and advertise. Companies such News International (which includes The Sun, News of the World, The Sunday Times and The Times), Trinity Mirror, Pearson, Emap and Johnston Press all include in the Press industry.

 The Computer Games industry is where most of money comes in media. Different genres like Fantasy, Action and sports are put into the games. The most known companies for this industry are EA Sports, Rockstar, Climax and Infinity Wards. My favourite company is Infinity Wards because they produced Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 which is the most played games in Playstation 3 and X Box. It sold 7.4 copies in its first 24hours on shelves. Advertising & Marketing is well known in the media industry. Sectors like Television, Radio, Print and Web are used. There are companies like Emap and McCann Erickson used for this industry.
 The last Industry is Interactive. Sectors like CD-ROM and Websites are involved. Companies like Windfall Digital, Illumina Digital and KMP are included.
