L02 - Traditional and virtual advertising

Traditional Methods

  • Bilboards
  • Radio
  • Poster
  • Newspaper
  • TV adverts
  • Cinema (Films)
All these methods are still used today.
mainly used by conglomerates because they have enough money to promote on multiple platforms.
This is a very good way to promote to a mass audience as you are making the advertisements accessible to everyone.

Digital Methods

(can reach a larger audience)
  • Websites
  • Social media platforms
  • Streaming platforms (YT, twitch)
This is cheaper that traditional methods as it is a lot quicker and easier to do.

Technological convergence = Technology coming together (Web 2.0)
Web 2.0 consists of - advertise, apps, communicate, film/TV/radio content, video games

Devices are now multifunctional (internet, games, music...)
Blackbox devices (consoles, phones, Smart TV's)

Digital Natives = A population who grew up with technological advancements. (18-)
Digital immigrants = A population who lived before technologic advancements and had to adapt.(40+)
