Research Task 7

 Task 7:


What is a regulatory body and what is a regulatory framework?

The Office of Communications, commonly known as Ofcom, is the government-approved regulatory and competition authority for the broadcasting, telecommunications and postal industries of the United Kingdom. Ofcom has wide-ranging powers across the television, radio, telecoms and postal sectors and they work with each of these in depth with each of these to make sure that these follow rules and guidelines. 

The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) is an adverting industry based in the UK. The ASA is a non-statutory organisation and so cannot interpret or enforce legislation. However, its code of advertising practice broadly reflects legislation in many instances. Part of the job ASA does is handle complaints when people aren't happy with certain advertisements. 







The Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) is the independent regulator for the newspaper and magazine industry in the UK. We hold newspapers and magazines to account for their actions, protect individual rights, uphold high standards of journalism and help to maintain freedom of expression for the press. Since the press is bigger and more controversial than ever before. IPSO have seen their workload increase due to more and more people being unhappy. 

The British Board of Film Classification is a non-governmental organisation founded by the film industry in 1912 and responsible for the national classification and censorship of films exhibited at cinemas and video works released on physical media within the United Kingdom. Having been to visit them on a trip I went to last year I have seen first hand the work they do.

Headshot

  When having your photo taken for a head-shot you need to follow a few tips to make sure you get a good photo. A few of these tips include, making sure you have your best side in view, this is very important because it makes your image looks better and it makes you look better for the person who's looking at it. Also when taking a head-shot, it is important that your facial expressions match your personality, for example in my photo I am smiling so this would let of that I am a fun and bubbly person whereas if i was to have a serious face, this would let out that I would be a more strict person who is a little more work-incentive.  When it came to editing my photo firstly I wanted to crop my photo to get rid of all of the dead space around the top of the photo.

It also includes what kind of product or service it provides, its primary customers or market, and its geographical region of operation. These are very important for a business because it gives potential customers or shareholders a glimpse into what kind of business it goes into.
