Cross Media Study

The TV text and film text that I have chosen to do is The Simpsons.
An animated comedy series, followed on to making the brand new The Simpsons Movie Animated Film.

The opening beginning scene that occurs in each episode shows in particular the five main members of the Simpsons family, showing each in detail of their daily routines and their work and social environment.
Whole opening only lasting for about a short 45 seconds.
The purpose for the opening is for a main setting of the town The Simpsons live in, (USA – Springfield).It is also as a introductive guidance the oncoming episode, with only one change at every opening, and that occurs right at where the Simpson family enters the house.

The Simpsons was founded by: -- Rupert Murdoch & Barry Diller.

The Simpsons Main Producers:-- James L. Brooks, Matt Groening & Sam Simon

The Simpsons Main Channel:
- FOX
Due to it being presented and owned by FOX.

The Simpsons Setting:
-- United States.

Voices Of:

-- Dan Castellaneta
-- Julie KavnerNancy
-- Cartwright Yeardley
-- Smith Hank
-- Azaria Harry

From the successful Simpson episodes, The Simpson Movie was released in 2007.With the two minute trailer, (all animated), the first look at homer is an extreme close up followed up after by a long shot. As the Simpson was moved from an original series program to a movie, the creators have made a lot of effort of trying to make the graphics as good as possibly, along with the close realistic actions made to make the animated movie seem rational.There are some comparisons to The Simpsons intro and the trailer of The Simpsons Movie. For example, as soon as the trailer begins, we firstly see a character of The Simpsons family, then in order of importance, the rest of the characters in the Simpsons.
The Simpsons:Primary Audience: Both Genders. 6 – 21.The older age of this audience would obviously understand more of the jokes said compared to the younger age audience who would get amused to other sorts of humour, such as slapstick.
The Simpsons Movie:Primary Audience: Both Genders. 6-21. Most attracted audience would be the particular audience that are fans to the actual Simpsons TV show. This is because they would have a better understanding and view.
