I have decided to do my textual analysis based on the internet documentary series "Play Value" , or more specifically the episode called Sega Vs Nintendo. I have decided to use this for my textual analysis as it is very similar to the production that me and my group are doing for our final production, for the textual analysis i decided to use the "MIGRAIN" textual analysis technique.
Media Language:
the series consists of mostly close ups, specifically of a talking head type, this is to show more emotion whilst discussing the certain events so the audience knows what the presenters think of the event.
Ideology:
the episode discusses a disagreement between Sony and Nintendo, in which nintendo make sony seem foolish, with the outcome being that sony made the playstation and made a lot more money than nintendo. The presenters seem pleased with this, which thusly indicates a dominant ideology of fair play.
Genre:
the series is a documentary based on the history of videogames.
Audience:
the target audience for this series is clearly both young gamers who want to further research the history of videogames, or an older videogame enjoying audience who want to watch the series for nostalgic value.
Institution:
the episode discusses various Institutions, but predominantly Sony and Nintendo.
Narrative:
as with all the episodes in the series, this episodes discusses the events in chronological order.
