Summer Task 3

Newspaper Covers
                            
              Image result for trump visit newspaper           Image result for newspaper front page trump

the media have the power to shape our opinion on very important people they. in these newspapers they present trump as unpopular, if you was to ask some one about trump its mostly always a negative opinion it seems that no one like his or believes his actions are right, but the american population would of had to like him and what he stands for to become the president. this could tell us how they don't report everything fairly about certain people. trump does a lot of unnecessary things and some of which could affect the UK there fore our media presents him in a negative, other wise this would help his campaign. they do it in a way to mock him and make the media look as though they are above trump and can say what ever they want about him. they call him a clown which is meant to insult his intelligence and make him appear dumb to the audience, but he is a very successful man and has made a lot of money from this, you would also need to be intelligent to be the president of US and run a successful campaign, which he was. 

are you beach body ready : this girl can
Image result for are you beach body ready   Image result for this girl can

the beach body campaign received a lot of criticism as they used an unrealistic stereo type and stated that this was the "beach body" people should have and what it should look like. you can see that model is petite and has a thigh gap which is the desired look they are suggesting is right, the model is also standing in an abnormal position to show her key features, which people didn't like as well as they didn't see it as a true reflection as angles can change someones appearance dramatically. the audiences to this felt as though people should feel confident in their own body and shouldn't create a stereo type of a good body as people have plenty of problems without worrying about their body, as it takes time and effort to get this "idea body". where as this girl can has shown how people have impact but it is normal and OK. this campaign is more supporting and comforting for a user to see. it shows in a much better way that is you are insecure about something there is something you can do to change and improve it. this way it give people hope and makes them feel in control as they realize there are many other people like them, and will motivate them to change it.

Summer Task 2

           
Deutschland 83

this trailer has used a lot of quick paced camera shots this makes it seem as though there would be a lot of action in the series and keeps it new and makes sure you wouldn't get bored when watching the trailer, the producer would have done this to keeps peoples attention on the trailer and try to convince them to watch the series. most of the scenes show different aspect of the series as in the romance, action, violence and joyfulness, in doing this it opens it up to a wide audience already, as the producer would know that people often watch series on types on genres that they like. it allows people who watch the trailer to get a good idea of what to expect from the series and invites them into this undercover life of a spy. from the scenes they show it engages the audience and connects them to the characters. this would make them want to watch the series as they would want to know what happens to each character as it looks as though they are on a dangerous mission to stop something from breaking out. they use text as well to get key information across like "cold war" showing us when it is based and telling us the main character is a "soldier/spy" as it is an easy way to do so and gives the viewer a better understanding of what the will be based around it also keeps the viewer watching the trailer as they would read this key information. this would interest some people as that might like thing to do with the cold war or spies. the producer/director has done this to show the audience what the series is about and shown some of the key moments so the viewer would be interested to find out what happen at the end of the series. the producers would have looked at all the scenes and picked out the most gripping and appealing scenes to put into the trailer, to advertise it and intrigue the biggest amount of people. the producer used a very well known song two tribes by Frankie goes to Hollywood which works very well with the quick action of the trailer as the song is very upbeat and fits the secretive and dangerous feel of the series. the music makes the trailer more intense and brings out the action which makes the viewer more immersed in the trailer and brings in their attention to it. there is also part of Ronald Reagan's evil empire speech used with adds more knowledge and understanding to what the series would be about. using these well known speeches and songs would make the trailer better known as people would here it and remember the time the heard that song/speech and would relate that to the trailer and would want to see the series as the would think it would interest them, that is why the producer would of selected these certain audio sounds.

Summer Task 1

This magazine has been targeted toward young girls. They have used Ariana Grande as the focal point on the front cover to attract customers, this is because she has a big fan base most of which are young girls. this would make them want to buy the magazine as they would want to know more information about her. It also includes a "free poster" of her which would further convince the audience that the magazine is worth the money. All of the text they have used is bold and creative, this makes it eye catching and noticeable which is important as it would be place next to other magazines, in doing this it is more likely to be selected by the customer. The text also mentions a lot of other things in the magazine like the "exclusive interview" with another big name Kendall Jenner, this would also make the customer want to buy it as they wouldn't be able to find the interview ant other magazine. they also use other relevant subject for young girls like school, as they would want to know what is "essential" when going back to school. using relevant topics toward the audience is the best way to interest them as pull them in so they buy the magazine. making it look creative and and standing out from the rest is a good way to sell it to a target audience, the deign works for this magazine as it is for young girls, where as if it was for a older audience it could be more formal.
