Essay test again... reminder: No Class Friday March 11. It will be a work day for the test (hopefully you can get started before then though), and it will be due (via email this time) by midnight that day.
(I will email you a reply when I get the test... 10 points off if it's late)
You can use your book or any other resource. If you want to use a source besides our book, please cite it at the end of your paper. (MLA Citation examples)
To avoid the appearance of plagiarism, if you use any direct quotes word for word, be sure to put it in quotes and attribute it to the original author.
Here are the questions..... pick two. Write about 2-4 double spaced pages per answer, please.
1. Compare the relationship between television and film in the 1940s and 50s (when TV was still young) to the relationship between television, film, and the Internet today. For example, where is there competition and where is there cooperation, and how do film and/or television try to set themselves apart from the competition (back then and today)?
2. Describe three major milestones (or notable figures) in the history of film and describe some of the impact these milestones had as the film industry evolved.
3. Describe Hollywood's Star System in the golden age of the film industry.
4. Summarize the difference between broadcast, cable, and satellite television. For example, the technology involved, when and how each was introduced, and how each is regulated (or not) by the FCC.
5. Discuss the recent sale of NBC to Comcast. What were some of the stipulations of the sale, and why does the sale itself worry some people?
