Magazines :introduction to representation

 1)Representation in media is the way the media portrays the world it could also mean the way certain media groups are shown to people.

2)Women are being represented, transgender people are being represented, celebrities are being represented.

3)the representation on the closer magazine suggest that women are interested in getting married, dating, babies, health.

4)we see a stereo type in the poster with women being associated with motherhood and having to take care of the children.

5)There is something that subverts stereo type and we see it in the top half of the poster and it says 'UK's first gay dad.

6)The preferred reading of the closer magazine is that women are interested in celebrities and motherhood.

7)The oppositional reading is that women are being represented wrongly because not all women are interested in motherhood an taking care of children.

8)   If it were a male reader they would feel uncomfortable because this poster is main aimed at women and how they live their day to day lives and society may see this as a way to stereo women in a particular way.

Narrative features also communicate meaning with mise-en-scene and props with April's knives which communicate to the audience that something dangerous is going to happen or a fight is going to happen. 4)
