10 different Media Form

Magazine




Magazines, periodicals, glossies or serials are publication that are printed with ink on paper, generally published on a regular schedule and contain a variety of content. They are generally financed by advertising, by a purchase price, by pre-paid magazine subscription, or all three.[At its root the word magazine refers to a collection or storage location. In the case of written publication it is a collection of written articles.

In my opinion, they have a big impact on society. It has the same influence as newspapers do. They would affect us in both good ways and bad ways. A good way they affect society is in advertising and current events. These allow us to stay up to date on whats going on in the world and let people get out their advertising so a business can make money. This is important considering today's economy practically runs on money. One negative way it magazines affect the economy is through advertising in possibly negative or mature content. (i.e:Playboy, Seventeen, MTV). These are examples of magazines/TV channels that can harm the overall morale of society because some of it is mature and/or graphic nature. Take MTV for instance. Sex, rap, music videos, brittney spears :), etc. It may get young people to think that crime and the cold city streets are ok. This is considering MTV contains some of this material. A negative affect on society. Overall, newspapers and magazines can affect society in good ways and bad. I mean, this IS the media we're talking about anyway. Not to mention some of it is rigged and twisted around to the point of propaganda.

Newspaper

It usually is printed on relatively inexpensive, low-grade paper such as newsprint.

Television


Television is one of media form's broadcast media as it is an important communication device as it beholds the attention of the audience and it provides both information and entertainment. Television also has become an advertising hub where advertisers spend huge amounts for an ad of few seconds especially for programs with high viewership.
Moreover, television increase an overall awareness of the masses as it enhance the general knowledge by providing us with information from all over the world. News, tele-films, and documentaries revolving around social issues increase a social awareness in children and develop their concern towards society.
However, an early exposure to bold or violent films, fight sequences, sex and rape scenes, suicides and murders through TV shows are bound to leave a scar on these impressionable minds hence television is responsible for generating negativity among to those exposed to it.

Mobile Phone

A mobile phone (also known as a cellular phone, cell phone and a hand phone) is a device that can make and receive telephone calls over a radio link while moving around a wide geographic area. It does so by connecting to a cellular network provided by a mobile phone operator, allowing access to the public telephone network. By contrast, a cordless telephone is used only within the short range of a single, private base station.

Radio

The influence of radio broadcasters in the daily lives of Americans is often grossly underestimated and occasionally altogether overlooked by even the most experienced media strategists. Radio is often described as the "captive electronic medium" because it reaches people while they are doing other things - in their cars, on the way to and from work, in their homes and offices, even while they exercise with a Walkman

POSTER

A poster is any piece of printed paper designed to be attached to a wall or vertical surface. Typically posters include both textual and graphic elements, although a poster may be either wholly graphical or wholly text. Posters are designed to be both eye-catching and informative.

Posters are also used for reproductions of artwork, particularly famous works, and are general low-cost compared to original artwork.

Billboards present large advertisements to passing pedestrians and drivers. Typically showing large, ostensibly witty slogans, and distinctive visuals, billboards are highly visible in the top designated market areas. Bulletins are the latest, most impactful standard-size billboards. Located primarily on major highways, expressways or principal arterials, they command high-density consumer exposure (mostly to vehicular traffic).
