The remake has changed to more digital advertising than physical advertising, in the first Women in Black they purely advertised physically as the internet was not publicly available. They all work together to bring the audience to watch the movie at home or the cinema.


Netflix also had a significant impact on advertising the women in black, promoting the film to all the customers using Netflix helping its popularity grow massively.

Using Daniel Radcliffe helped promote both films as he is one of the most popular actors, and being the main actor helps boost audiences and ratings, helping the movie reach a wider audience. Danial Radcliffe started as Harry Potter and many more global popular roles.

Blumler and Katz – Uses and Gratifications (LO6)

Adapted from Denis McQuail’s Audience Pleasures, this active audience theory states we consume media for the following uses and gratifications: •Information and Education – the viewer wants to acquire information, knowledge and understanding by watching programmes like The News or Documentaries. •Entertainment – Viewers watch programmes for enjoyment. •Personal Identity - Viewers can recognise a person or product, or role model that reflects similar values to themselves and mimic or copy some of their characteristics. •Integration and social interaction – the ability of media products to produce a topic of conversation between people. For example who is the best contestant on The X-factor who was the best goal shown on Match of the day. •Escapism – Computer games and action films let viewers escape their real lives and imagine themselves in those situations.
