THREE BEST IDEAS
Why do people have the need to feel perfect, is it how woman are being represented in the music industry? (Subject on Television, Music videos, Magazines and Online)
A reason for choosing this text is that on a daily basis I am identifying the way in which woman are being portrayed through music videos and social networking sites. Because they are wearing lesser clothes, and showing it to their fans this is a very popular thing to do therefore it must influence a lot of people. I want to investigate if this is the reason why people are going through cosmetic surgeries and want to look and feel perfect.
Moreover, with woman this is a popular issues because they are spending a lot of time to look good! I already know how people have gone crazy to look perfect! going through several surgeries to consistently spending way to much money on fakery.
http://www.beyonce.com/ This is an example, Beyonce is being portrayed as a very beautiful person, this would influence a lot of the other people out their to be as 'perfect' as her.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_industry This discuss's what the music industry is, the people who compose music and take part in it. To investigate how people are becoming perfect due to how woman are being presented in the music industry, I need to know what's involved in this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHp2KgyQUFk This is another example, of how beyonce shows off with lesser clothes to the audience. This may influence audience's to do crazy things in order to become that thin etc. Later on, I am going to research the statistics on females changing going through various of things perhaps due to their role models etc.
How are teenagers being negatively represented through the media, what effect this has on other older people? (TV)
In my opinion I feel that we are being represented negatively, if it's in school or outside there is always an issue with teenagers. As this is popular through the media this effects older people as instantly if they see boys wearing hoody's they instantly have that stereotype in their mind. Therefore I want to investigate if older people are really effected by what the media says, or do they not believe it at all?
http://soulpancake.com/conversations/view/73435/why-are-teenagers-represented-so-negatively-in-the-media.html This website discuss's the stereotypes of teens and the possible reason to why were are being represented as such. In order to go ahead with this I need to understand why they are being presented in such a way.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wu-JWUt_FMs This shows how media projects media types and if this is the cause why older people are believing it, because they are immune to do so.
To what extent are British programmes: such as Britain got talent following the pre-watershed rule? (TV)
Complaints are always being sent to programmes or ofcom because they have passed the limit and I personally have noticed this for example: on Britains got talent they invited singers weekly during the final episodes Jlo appeared and did a gig. The outfit she wore was wrong, as it was firstly too short too tight and not something for a small child to see! After this there were many complaints! So this has influenced me to investigate are reality programmes really following the rules? Or is there something else behind the cameras!
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2327353/Britains-Got-Talent-pre-watershed-TV-programmes-robbing-children-innocence-headteachers-claim.html This discusses how foul language and inappropriate themes on BGT and other pre-watershed programmes are robbing children of their innocence, headteachers have warned.
