Television presents students with an understanding of how television constructs meaning and encourages them to incorporate critical thinking into their TV viewing. It provides essential critical and historical context, lucidly explaining how different critical methods have been applied to the medium (e.g., genre study, ideological criticism, cultural studies) and how televisions style has evolved over the decades. Utilizing hundreds of illustrations from TV programs, this book introduces students to the varied ways in which TV goes about telling stories, presenting news, and selling products. In clear and lively prose, it shows how cinematography and videography, acting, lighting, set design, editing, and sound all come together to produce the meanings that we take away from our television experience. For students, teachers, and general readers alike, Television delivers a critical toolkit for analyzing this ubiquitous medium.
