what is regulation? I think that regulation is something that is used through out all formats of media in-order to prevent and protect viewers from seeing media that is not suitable for an audience and is also there to control what is seen for particular reasons, this may be because the viewer wants to watch an 18 rated film but is too young for example, the regulation has been put in place so that the young viewer is not damaged by what the content has to give.

Mainly focusing on film the conventions would be the genre and sub-genre and must be followed successfully so that the product in known and understood for its purpose and expression. However it is possible that you can break down, and re-make the conventions.
