Homework -

The magazine show I plan to analyse is the Amazon original show 'The Grand Tour'. Within the show there is a variety of props used throughout to emulate the aesthetic of the show to appeal to the specific target audience. The studio setup is arranged to be open and intimate with the audience being close to the presenters and therefore feeling involved, this close setup also allows for easy audience participation whilst creating personal rapport with audience as the camerawork and setting within the audience makes them feel as if they are part of the audience. The studio is also effective in clearly portraying the location of the show, this is achieved by the large viewing window situated behind the presenters; it could also be perceived that the producers included this element to backlight the presenters thus adding emphasis to them. This element is also key to basis of the show as the location changes with every episode released. Subsequently, this not only creates visual interest it also involves a larger audience as they can relate to the new and ever changing setting, this is also a relatively original concept again creating intrigue and viewership.

Presenters-
Within the show there are three main presenters with varying characters again to appeal to a large and varied age range. The age of the presenters range from 47 to 57, this age range has the greatest appeal to an older target audience due to the nature of there comedy and often language used. The ragged and often non polished further builds a report with the audience as they portray the traits of there working class background which appeals to the cde audience. On the contrary, the program can also be seen to appeal to a majority ABC1 audience due to the content and high end lifestyle and cars featured.
