Media representation

Media representation:

How Uk migration is represented
Uk migration is frowned upon,due to the representation of a massive queue of people trying to get in.However, this is a false image the media has given to the public as they wouldn't be a large group of people.The image of a vast group makes people believe they're lots of people.This red capital letters "BREAKING POINT' create a alert and dangerous image thus creates people to believe migration is going to put everybody in danger.The people look poor and that they are in need,creating people to believe they're will receive benefits and that their tax is going towards them.This would create people to not want them in.

Discus the ideology of the UKIP party 

Ukip has also placed emphasis on lowering immigration, rejecting multiculturalism, and opposing what it calls the "Islamification" of Britain.

To what degree do you think that issue of migration influenced Brexit?

Migration has influence others to vote for Brexit as they believe voting out will decrease the level of migrants coming in.However,people are now beginning o understand that most migrants do jobs that people wouldn't want to do.

The inbetweeners

in the episode there is stereotypes presented.They present youth as being very mischievous and disrespectful for example when two of the boys decided to kick flowers of a persons garden.They're did not think about the person that lives there but instead choice what was entertaining for them.One of the boys refused to participated which caused the others to call him names this creates the stereotype of youth having to act rebellious to be excepted and that they would be 'bullied' if they decided to not participate.The boys also wanted to have a party without the mums permission creating the stereotypes of them being 'rebellious'.The youth swore a lot teach other and in there vocabulary such as 'f*ck of' and blo*dy hell' creating the youth as having the stereotype as not being smart. The boys didn't like the fact they were playing the wii as it was seen as being to feminine this conveys boys want to feel dominant such as playing a playstation as it more popular which also creates the stereotype of them 'jumping on the bag-wagon'.Stereotypes were shown as them being very sexually active as they watch videos and told there friends mum to bounce up and down trying to sexualise her.
For the sound in the video there is narration telling the viewer in a funny and cheesy way of describing hat going on.The camerawork changed from different angles to keep the viewer entertained.

In Advertising and Magazines

They are shown as…

•Young

•Slim

•Overwhelmingly white

•Conforming to our image of ideal beauty (perfect skin, hair and alluring gaze).

Laura Mulvey:

She was a theorist and a feminist

Mulvey, came up with the concept on male gaze in 1975.

Here Mulvey wrote a very influential essay ‘Visual pleasure and Narrative Cinema’. Stating that women are used for visual pleasure- women are made to seem like sexual objects through voyeurism.

she argued that women took the passive part of a film and that all men played an active part, in her eye the women were objects.

Gender Representation

Van Zoonen – feminism and patriarchy.

Van Zoonen believes the media portray images of stereotypical women and this behavior reinforces societal views.

The media does this because they believe it reflects dominant social values (what people believe in) and male producers are influenced by this. This is a patriarchy (a society ran by men for men) which dominates and oppresses women.

'Masculinity' is a concept that is made up of more rigid stereotypes than femininity. 

Representations of men across all media tend to focus on the following:

•Strength - physical and intellectual

•Power

•Sexual attractiveness (which may be based on the above)

•Physique

•Independence (of thought, action, finances)

Male characters are often represented as isolated, as not needing to rely on others (the lone 

hero). If they submit to being part of a family, it is often part of the resolution of a narrative, 

rather than an integral factor in the initial balance.

It is interesting to note that the male physique is becoming more important a part of 

representations of masculinity. 

The Fool/ Buffoon

The fool stereotype is a tried and tested formula  e.g. the bungling father in TV ads and Sitcoms. Usually well intentioned and light hearted, these characters range from slightly inept to completely hopeless in work or parenting and domestic situations.

comparison of male and female stereotype: 

In the image of Tinnie Temper he is wearing a black tuxedo creates the sense of him being dominant which links to the stereotypes of males being powerful and strong.The contrast of the black and white creates a 'James Bond' look which also links to masularity . The use of the Lexi 'solo' emphasises that he is independent which gives the stereotype of not needing a female figure.The tuxedo can be portrayed as him having a good finance which can be attracted to some females as he look well looked after for an example; him being shaved and his hair having a trim.His glasses creates the sense of him being well educated and intelligent thus creates the ideal image of him being self driven also shown through his facial expression being serious.The male is standing up straight which shows his masularity being powerful and strong.

Wheres,in the female magazine she is wearing a full face of makeup;red lipstick can be seen as a seductive  colour to wear.Furthermore,she is wearing no nothing on her body except the luxurious jewellery that stands out in the image.The fancy background makes it seem glamorous  also.The subheading 'women of the year' can create the idea of being seductive can make you the ideal best women.This can be seen as being inappropriate as the female is seen as being more of a sexualised object whereas,the man is seen as powerful.Her body being scrunched up into a ball can suggest she is feeling uncomfortable.Her skin is photoshopped  and her slim body is shown of showing of the stereotypical view of how a women is meant to look like.Her long hair is silky and shiny showing how she has money.However,it can be seen as her being body confident as she doesn't mind showing of her body and trying to embrace it.
