Did you know that in a lot of places, TV is the next big thing? I did not, but now I do. This short yet powerful article on the global impact television is making was quite interesting. Here in the U.S.A not having a TV in the home seems like a novel idea. Television has played a pivotal role in American culture for years. It was interesting for me to read about how in other places television is just beginning its rise. By the time students my age and younger are working in the field, television will be reaching a great number of people. This article shows how things are rapidly changing in the world of entertainment.
I found the embeded video really interesting. Although the video deals more with movies and music than it does with televsion, it still shows the impact entertainment is having around the world. When I would think of different places that are known for their impact on the world of entertainment, Nigeria was not at the top of the list. After watching this video, however, I see the role that film and music play on a global scale. Nigeria is trying to make a name for itself in the entertainment industry and I look forward to seeing what the future holds for those involved in the efforts.
Excellent blog entry.
