  • Gossip Girl Viral Promotion Problem Statement
    Group 4 - Round Table Media Case 14-1: Gossip Girl Viral Promotion Problem Statement: The CW’s show Gossip Girl has lost live viewers, which decreases the value of the advertising spots available during the show. The network seeks to increase live viewership by incentivizing viewers via a creative, viral campaign to watch Gossip Girl live instead of recording the show and watching it later. Critical Factors: A. The primary target market for this campaign is women, 18-24 years of age. The CW is the only network capturing women in this target. The secondary target market is college males. B. Increased use of digital video recorders, websites streaming television shows, and services like DirecTV and Tivo means that viewers are choosing to record shows and watch them later, and can fast forward through commercials.1 C. The CW has requested this campaign be a non-traditional and outside-the-box publicity and promotional campaign. The CW network executives highly admired Jack in the Box’s “Hang in There Jack” campaign and its use of non-traditional media. D. The CW Network has fourteen weeks to launch a viral Gossip Girl media campaign before the next season premiere, then the campaign will continue while Gossip Girl airs. E. Gossip Girl emphasizes fashion and technology, and is influential in these industries. F. The success of the promotional campaign will be measured by changes in ratings during the time of the campaign, and hopefully will result in a significant increase in ratings. G. Gossip Girl is one of The CW’s most popular series, so it is understood that we are working with a large budget.

I bring ​ ​ this series into the discussion because of the ways in which it echos, parallels, and alludes to both Emma and Clueless individually, and the two as a source pair. I do not argue that the series is an ​ ​ ​ actual adaptation, but rather, a sort of collage, recombining motifs from both source texts to create something new, exciting, and completely absurd.

  • We Are All Gossip Girl”: Gossip Girl and the Promise of Interactive Television
    PREVIOUSLY ON “We are all Gossip Girl”: Gossip Girl and the Promise of Interactive Television Elisa Lange In November 2010, Current TV, a cable network founded by former Vice President Al Gore, has started airing a 30 minute TV series called Bar Karma, which is created in online collaboration with fans and is thus a new step to truly participatory and interactive TV. On a website users can pitch storylines, comment on submitted entries, talk to the producers, and contribute marketing ideas. The show is co-produced by SimCity creator Will Wright and features well-known actors like William Sanderson (http://current.com/studios/about/). Of course, there is no guarantee that the fans’ story idea will find its way into the actual show since the producers and writers still hold the power to decide how and if a pitch is worked into the final product. Still, this project allows viewer to have more than an imaginary control over the televised narrative even if the project’s success still remains to be seen. Still, interactivity rarely plays out on the primary level of the TV program itself, but more commonly on the secondary level and tertiary level of the televisual text, that is network created websites that allow some contributions from fans and unregulated communications between fans (Fiske, 1983: 85). Interactivity within the TV landscape is often associated with the viewers’ ability to turn from passive consumers into active producers of content that “adds” to the televised narrative but does not change it (Hassapopoulou, 2010: 48). This distinction usually does not to take into account that even when viewers are passively sitting on their couch watching soap operas, their minds are still actively engaged in making sense of the narratives and relationships.

  • Extended Essay Code: Hmb426 Research Question: in What Ways
    Extended Essay Code: hmb426 Research question: In what ways does the show Gossip Girl portray traditions in New York’s elite class? November 2019 Word count: 3918 Table of Contents Introduction: Chapter 1: New York’s elite class and the relevance of traditions. Chapter 2: How traditions play a role in the American family and with this how is it pursued with wealth. Conclusion: Bibliography: Introduction: In this extended essay, I will analyze how the behavior of people that are part of an elite class, especially in a city like New York, known for having every kind of social class possible, from homeless people to extremely rich and wealthy people. In this case, I will explain how the elite class carries family traditions and furthermore, how their social and economic state influences their family development and their kid's emotional growth when it comes to talking about specific things such as in traditions. The artifact that I will be using is the worldwide famous series Gossip Girl, that at first, it was a series of books published in April 2002 and stopped in the month of May 2007, and after all the success it had, the author, Cecily Von Ziegesar sold the legal right to the books to Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage to take the series to a young adult show in The CW network for six seasons from September 19, 2007, to December 17, 2012. Gossip Girl was a big hit between those years and to this day teenagers are still watching the series. To summarize the story plot, Gossip Girl is about the scandalous life’s of a group of teenagers and their families living their best life in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, but when it comes to it, it shows the struggles of being part of the elite class and the social pressure that comes with it.
