Background Infomation on Channels
MTV
The channel began as a 24-hour platform for music videos and debuted at midnight on August 1st 1981 with the broadcast of “Video Killed the Radio Star” by the Buggles. It became so popular in the 80s, 90s and 20s that if a song was played on MTV it was almost guaranteed to become a hit for the artist. Its most popular video to air on the channel was Michael Jackson’s Thriller in 1983 which was a breakthrough as the channel in its early days faced criticism for an almost complete shutout of Black artists. Its target audience is older teens to young adults as it mainly plays the songs that are trending at the moment which also mainly aims toward young adults as well. After its success in the music industry, in its later years, MTV also started broadcasting reality TV shows which also seemed to become a hit with its most popular show being MTV cribs where celebrities would give tours around their house giving them an insight into their lives to the public.

It was first launched in 2001 as an alternative channel at night when the primary audience of the cartoon network, younger children, would go to sleep and the new target audience became adults. Adult Swim is known for its sexual themes, nudity, strong language and graphic violence and has created popular shows such as Robot Chicken, The Eric Andre Show and Rick and Morty.

My Chosen Company
For my chosen company I will be doing adult swim as I would like to use popular characters from their programmes such as Rick and Morty and have these characters ripped in half to reveal the name adult swim.
