How are you represented by the media texts you choose?
Taking part in the way we entertain ourselves using the media has increased as an activity, accommodated and mediated by film, television, video and other technologies. In the way we expose ourselves to the media we are choosing messages that reinforce our own beliefs, self-perceptions and realities. The media ownership does this through a complex social code; it targets audiences through class, gender, ethnicity, education and culture. We position ourselves as a particular kind of person or stereotype by the media we choose. ...
In print media, my chosen magazine is ‘Cosmopolitan’, one of the UK’s top selling female magazines. ... By watching ‘Hollyoaks’ I represent myself as a teen using the soap characters as models of my behaviour. ...
The media can represent people in lots of different ways. ... By choosing all of these specific texts I am representing myself as a stereotypical teenager using appealing characters to model my behaviour through there image and how they talk.
