Camille- (10:45- 12:15)
Camille rushes home after the bus crash because she knows that her mum would be worried about her. she does not seem to realise who much time has passed when she comes home and think she has only been missing for a matter of hours.

When Camille returns how she begins to make sandwich and has a shower without really talking to her mother. This confuses the audience because we aren't able to understand how Camille is so calm after being involved in the accident.

We can also interpret that Camille is lazy and messy because when she makes the sandwich she tells her mum that she will clean up the mess she made later. As well as this, when she is about to have a shower she asks her mother to find her bathrobe for her rather than getting it herself.

It could also be said that Camille is abrupt and rude towards her mother as she pushes past her and doesn't allow her mother to talk to her after not seeing her in such a long time.

Zoella- Audience (Clay Shirky- End Of An Audience)

Zoella- Audience Zoella's target audience: Gender: Female Age: 7-13 Ethnicity: White, English Social-economic status: Middle class Zoella does not have a mass audience as she targets a niche audience, a specific group of people. Emotive content- the show appeals to its female audience through narratives that engage with subject matter emotionally. Zoella continuously tells us how she 'feels' about the problems she faces. Zoella foregrounds stereotypical female based activities in her presentation: fashion, make-up, relationships. Costume stereotypically feminine- feminine colour palette deployed in mise-en-scene use of pets and pet orientated references (stereotypical little dog). Presenter constructs a version of ideal beauty- highly stylised, lot of make-up, attention pain to outfits. Intimate confessional tone- creates a female character.
