A news package is what the news use when they cut away to someone away from the studio. This is usually to where the main news is happening offsite and will feature many things such as interviews, facts and statistics and general updates/info about the topic. News packages are the main way broadcasters deliver long stories in depth. The news package would be filmed with an entirely different crew compared to the ones in the studio with the link to the studio. This shows that the news package can be live or pre-recorded. This in n overall aspect gives the audience more information in depth and is very informative.
Field reporter
A field reporter is the main anchor of a news report. They are usually the ones who deliver the news to the audience and inform them on what is going on. They'll be involved in the action of the topic or usually just there to report information about it. Their location, tone, and appearance would link to the subject as it is suitable for the overall message coming across. The reason why this convention is used in a convention is because it is the most effective and interactive way of giving information to the audience. By making sure the news reporter is formal and clear not only towards the topic but in the way in which they address and speak it shows the audience that they are trust worthy and will engage them further into the story.
Link to the studio
Link to the studio is the moment in a news report where the field reporter will interact with the studio. This shows the way the field reporter feeds back to the studio to put it on air. Usually during a live report the field reporter will use links to the studio do talk about the situation they are in and reply to any questions or information the studio want them to report on. There are specific camera angles and shots used for the information being told so it is more engaging and gets the message across. The reason why link to the studio is used is because it shows the current situation the field reporter is in and shows feedback coming from there. The field reporter corresponds to the Link to the studio when they ask questions so the audience gain the knowledge they want.
Mode of address to the viewer
The correspondent is in Japan exploring different girls and women on what they think are the expectations to their body weight, type and appearance. The report mainly consists of interviews with Japanese females and how they feel about the physical features. The report starts off with the correspondent by saying "welcome to quite possibly one of the most image conscious places on the planet" at 0:02 in a very upbeat way to engage the audience and get their attention on the topic. In this documentary the woman has to get the attention of the audience therefore she addresses the audience in a upbeat manner as it links to the topic which would be under lifestyle. If the reporter was speaking in a very serious manner with an informative tone then the audience wouldn't be as interested, and because this isn't really such a serious topic then there is no need for the reporter to show that tone with the audience. Interviewing experts and witnesses
During a news interview it is usual that there is a few interviews and questions to be asked to a various amount of people or experts in the area of focus. By interviewing experts and witnesses it increases the reliability the news will have towards the audience and shows that their sources aren't based on second hand information but is filmed with people who either are technical experts in their area or people who have gone through or know what happened in a certain subject. The field reporter will often be asking the questions/doing interviews with these people as they are the ones who are out on the go going to different places wherever the action is. These interviews are for knowledge and understanding or to just build a general picture from the person being interviewed. The feedback the people give when being interviewed will be reported back to the studio or it cn be shown in a cut away from the studio with the conventions with the field reporter. In terms of keeping the audience engaged the news report would only take a short section of the interview as they'd want to keep the audience engaged enough to get the information being said. In terms of Experts in their field there might be a longer period of time spent on them as their say is important due to there knowledge and expert skills. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SM91-IXJ8Ic
