Sturat Hall's Representation Theory


    Representation is the way media labels or looks at certain groups. Sturat Hall's theory states that there is not a true representation of people or events. Meaning that media just wants us to see what they want us to see for example in many movies that we watch there are a bunch of stereotypes like with witches when someone says witch you immediately think of a woman who is green with a pointy nose or a pointy hat. Sturat Hall is saying that there is no actual way of how something is supposed to be or look  Sturat Hall is saying not all witches have to look this way this is the only way we see them though because that is how media made them look. There are many many stereotypes out in the world even if they are small like how we think that all fairies are supposed to have wings

How do es your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text? The product would engage with audiences all over with females it would show them how this is an everyday thing but we ca

First Draft Magazine Cover

Image
 Making this magazine cover was a bit of a struggle because the colors kept on fighting with the background to be seen with the text I tried every color and I tried putting something behind the letters so it could make the letters pop out and be seen but it was just not working with me I moved the text box everywhere around the magazine to see if it could look better and I ended up just switching the two text boxes. I felt like if I left the magazine cover alone without text boxes that it was going to look very plain and boring and most of the magazines that I know of and that have been seen mostly have text boxes some of them even have the whole magazine covered in text boxes. I decided that I was going to do two front page covers to see which one comes out better that was the first one that I just described. For the second one that I designed I decided to use a different picture and instead of having the standard idea that was in my head like for the first one I just decided to let g
