What company would most likely produce my media text in the real world?
SMUGGLER
Pros:
- They are older, therefore have more experience in music video production
- More employees. This would mean that their productions may be more effective as there are more people working on it
- More familiar with working with lesser known indie artists. They seem to have frequently worked with smaller artists, which as we are working under the indie pop genre, our artist would fall into
Son&Heir
Pros:
- They're younger. This would mean that the owners and employees are more likely to be younger people themselves which ensures that they are more familiar with the trends and culture of younger people
- Has worked with well known artists. This is important as it means that they are familiar with the pop aspect of our genre
- Small number of employees. This would mean that their employees are more likely to be more skilled as they are able to keep a successful production company running with a limited number of people involved
