39. 39. Part : NChosen Channel
40. 40. Chosen Channel We will be showing our documentary on channel 4 This is because channel 4 is well known for its Dispatches Documentaries which often concern current topics. This fits well with our Social Media topic as it is Informative ( this is a typical channel 4 genre). This also relates to our target audience because they will seek out these types of documentaries like Dispatches. Channel 4 is very popular amongst 15 - 35 year olds which are our main audience. Therefore our audience will already drawn to the documentary through the channel.
41. 41. N Channel On TVWed put it on Channel 4 because...

43. 43. Part : OTime On TV
44. 44. Time On TVWe have decided to show our documentary at 8:00 PM- This is because our documentary will not consist of any inappropriate footage orlanguage.-- It is suitable for the whole family to watch.-- People usually finally finish their work and sit down to watch television around this time.-- 7:00 PM is too early and the number of viewers wont be very high.-- 9:00 PM is a popular spot filled up by the programmes that are regularly watched byviewers.-- Therefore viewers will be less likely to miss their shows for our documentary.
