Types of Media: Print, Broadcast, & New Media

TYPES OF MEDIA

1. Print Media - media consisting of paper and ink, reproduced in a printing


process that is traditionally mechanical. It is used to describe the traditional or
"old-fashioned" print-based media that today's parents grew up with, including
newspapers, magazines, books, and comics or graphic novels

2. Broadcast Media - media such as radio and television that reach target
audiences using airwaves as the transmission medium.

3. Film/Movies- These are the oldest form of motion picture technology capable
of capturing lifelike video-style images. Originally, movies could only be
consumed at a neighborhood movie theater, but these days movies are widely
available for people to consume in their homes, on their computers, and even in
through their telephones. Commercial movies are broadcast on television, and
via cable and satellite services which may feature High Definition (HD) video
resolution and sound, essentially allowing the movie theater experience to be
replicated in a home theater environment
4. New Media - content organized and distributed on digital platforms such as
the Internet. It refers to “those digital media that are interactive, incorporate two-
way communication and involve some form of computing,” Robert Logan writes
in his book Understanding New Media. New media is “very easily processed,
stored, transformed, retrieved, hyperlinked and, perhaps most radical of all,
easily searched for and accessed.”MEDIA CONVERGENCE

Media convergence is the merging of mass communication


outlets – print, television, radio, the Internet along with portable and interactive
technologies through various digital media platforms.
Media convergence is the blending of multiple media forms into one
platform for purposes of delivering a dynamic experience.
Technologically rich societies have entered the digital age, and media
industries are grappling
