Stereotypes Sell


This magazine stereotypes black men because he has tattoos all over his body and he is muscly.

















This magazine stereotypes females because she is wearing very explicit clothes and she has been photoshopped to have the perfect figure and no imperfections.
















This magazine cover follows stereotypes because the camera is looking down at him as if he is less then other people because he is black, also he doesn't look very .
















This magazine cover follows social class because the colour pallet shows that he has money because money is green and also it could connote drugs such as weed.

Mock Exam DIRT

1. Video Standard Council Rating Board

2. They would release a video because it would promote the film and they would make money on top of the money they make from the film. Also they would make a video game to continue the film and wanted more they could play the game. They released a video game so if someone couldn't get to the cinema, they can still experience it at home. They would release a video game because it would boost the sales of the blu ray and the download of the movie. If its making money from more than one media it will have less chance of losing money

3.  The Lego Movie Video Game offers entertainment so when someone is is playing the game they aren't thinking and stressing over something like the test they have to revise for. However it could cause a distraction from things such as tests which is bad because they could fail the test because they were playing the game and not revising.
The Lego Movie Video Game provides personal identity so when someone is playing the game they can relate to characters such as Emmet because they want to be normal or they want to be a hero and stand out.
The Lego Movie Video Game provides information that some people might not believe. Such as when Emmet is told he is an ordinary construction worker. Some people could realise froths that you can be whatever you want if you try hard enough.
The Lego Movie Video Game could offer relationships because if they play the game one night and the next morning they could make a post about it on social media, that person could discover new people that have the sam interests as that person and these relationships could develop.
Blumier and Katz came up with a theory that there are 4 things that make media successful, personal identity, social integration, entertainment and surveillance. Video games offer entertainment especially for kids and it makes them happy knowing that they can relate to the characters.

4. The poster attracts audience because it shows lots of characters that adults will remember from their childhood and they will want to watch it and experience it with their children.
