ENTERTAINMENT& MEDIA

Entertainment

Entertainment is a form of activity that holds

the attention and interest of an audience, or
gives pleasure and delight

The process has been accelerated in modern times by an

entertainment industry which records and sells entertainment
products. Entertainment evolves and can be adapted to suit any
scale, ranging from an individual who chooses a private
entertainment from a now enormous array of pre-recorded products;
to a banquet adapted for two; to any size or type of party, with
appropriate music and dance; to performances intended for
thousands; and even for a global audience.

Media

The media is a diversifi/home/user/Desktop/swathi/mediaentertainment.jpged collection of media technologies that reach a large

audience via mass communication. The technologies through which this
communication takes place includes a variety of outlets.

Music
Music

Music is a supporting component of many kinds of

entertainment and most kinds of performance. For
example, it is used to enhance storytelling, it is
indispensable in dance and opera, and is usually
incorporated into dramatic film or theatre productions

Dance

The many forms of dance provide entertainment for all age groups
and cultures. Dance can be serious in tone, such as when it is used
to express a culture's history or important stories; it may be
provocative; or it may put in the service of comedy. Since it
combines many forms of entertainment music, movement,
storytelling, theatre it provides a good example of the various ways
that these forms can be combined to create entertainment for
different purposes .

Games
Games are played for entertainment
sometimes purely for entertainment,
sometimes for achievement or reward as
well. They can be played alone, in
teams, or online; by amateurs or by
professionals. The players may have an
audience of non-players, such as when
people are entertained by watching a
chess championship. On the other hand,
players in a game may constitute their
own audience as they take their turn to
play. Often, part of the entertainment for
children playing a game is deciding who
will be part of their audience and who
will be a player.

Comedy
The meaning of the word "comedy" and the
audience's expectations of it have changed over
time and vary according to culture. Simple
physical comedy such as slapstick is entertaining
to a broad range of people of all ages. However,
as cultures become more sophisticated, national
nuances appear in the style and references so
that what is amusing in one culture may be
unintelligible in another

Internet
The Internet (also known simply as "the Net" or less precisely as "the Web") is a more
interactive medium of mass media, and can be briefly described as "a network of
networks". Specifically, it is the worldwide, publicly accessible network of
interconnected computer networks that transmit data by packet switching using the
standard Internet Protocol (IP). It consists of millions of smaller domestic, academic,
business, and governmental networks, which together carry various information and
services, such as email, online chat, file transfer, and the interlinked web pages and
other documents of the World Wide Web.

Magazines
.
Magazines are typically published weekly, biweekly, monthly,
bimonthly or quarterly, with a date on the cover that is in
advance of the date it is actually published. They are often
printed in color on coated paper, and are bound with a
soft cover.

Newspaper

A newspaper is a publication containing news

and information and advertising, usually printed
on low-cost paper called newsprint.
