Conglomeration Animation






For this projectI chose the Time Warner corporation, since they're a pretty excellent example of media conglomeration. To do this I started out with three of their subsidiaries (an example of horizontal integration). Warner Brothers they use for film, and through this company they license and produce their movies. Time magazine they use as a news influence and AOL is their territory on the internet. In this way they have integrated these different fields into themselves and become much more far-reaching than even the original merger of Time and Warner Brothers.


So in the GIF I have those three media companies coming together and being overshadowed by their larger influence, Time Warner. Then I just have some text "Media Conglomeration" to put forward the idea through the GIF even more concretely.
