Media landscape comparison of two tv shows

All writing should be related to the Tv shows : la casa de papel and Money heist from Korea. and with citation in the essay.
Subject: MediaSince the dawn of television, television formats – the overall concept and branding
for a copyrighted television show – have crossed borders and been retooled and
remade in different countries. In the 1950s and 1960s, it was not uncommon for
television broadcasters and production houses to have employees stationed in
various countries around the world looking for formats, primarily non-fiction, to buy
and redo. Over time, this has only expanded. Non-fiction formats, like XXX Got
Talent, The Voice, are still a popularly genre to buy and redo, but fiction formats, like
the highly popular and redone Israeli format – Prisoners of War which has been
remade in over 20 countries – are also in high demand. Therefore, it is highly certain
that a television format you have watched is based on a television format from
another country! Knowing that television formats do not necessarily die but they are
just remade begs the questions: How are they the same? How are they different?
For this assignment, you will be expected to watch at least the pilot episode of each
show and make reference to those episodes in your paper and your presentation. In your paper, your comparison will explore the elements of the media entertainment
landscape of the two countries.
TV FORMATS YOU CAN CHOOSE:
La Casa De Papel (Spain) – Money Heist: Joint Economic Area (South Korea)
Media & Entertainment Industry Landscape:
A television production is always affected by the media entertainment landscape in
which the production company exists. Your final comparison will explore the
elements of the media entertainment landscape of the two countries, in terms of
broadcaster/production company, contextual factors, and cross-media/transmedia
approaches.
DETAILS/QUESTIONS TO CONSIDER:
How does the market competition within the television industry on the media
landscape of the two countries compare? What types of companies were involved in
the two productions and how does this affect the final product? (paper &
presentation)
How do contextual factors, such as the regulation of the industry, the television
system, and the nature of the channel or broadcaster, influence the process or
resulting products? For instance, focus on how the media system and the political,
economic, or geographic circumstances of both countries could have played a role in
the format adaptation. (paper)
How do technological factors affect each individual television show? For instance,
how do factors such as internet penetration, mobile connectivity, and digital
infrastructure can shape the accessibility, distribution channels, and consumption
patterns of media content. (paper)
BONUS:
Is a cross-media and/or transmedia approach used in either or both countries’
productions of the formats? Reflect on what the (main) purpose of this approach
could have been, and what could explain why it was used in one country (or by one
broadcaster) but not the other. (paper)Paper Structure
