One reason a film studio would release a game is to touch onto another audience and creating a bigger fanbase on the movie for example if i like to play games and a new game releases and i find out theres a movie with a backstory about it then im going to want to watch it to find out the details about the game

Lo: to explore the appeal of Mojo magazine to its target audience
personal identity
Madonna in this cover is presenting herself as a rebellious woman who wants to the world she's different
by having a cross in her mouth she is trying to demonetize the christian community
This magazine shows the audience exactly what they can expect from it and tells the audience

1) Radio stations could meet the requirements of PSB by not swearing telling people the news inbetween songs so they do not have to turn to other radio channels, and they invite local and upcoming artists to the stage for live music in the lounge for people to decide wether its good or not
music video
Teenage dirtbag
- american school
- prom
- popular girl and the jocks
- the geek
Skater boy
- city
- teenagers rebels
- punk
- romance
Music videos create representation through the use of the scenery like the city being for the rebel girl in skater boy and the teenage dirtbag geek is in school which is a stereotype for him being a nerd
Do Now
1) media language is mise -en -scene, camera work, editing and magazine
2) industry is a certain type of community making a profit of a certain market
3) audience are the people who view your media
4) the way something is show to act or look like
5) context is background information to reality and real life events in media
teenage dirtbag
the girls interest is presented as popular because of the way she walks into school acting and walking like. she owns it.
Skater boy
the main female character is shown as rebellious through the use of the illegal gig she sets up in the middle
of the street on top off a car
Question 3) in teenage dirtbag the main character is presented as a loser they showed this by a establishing shot of him eating alone. Wearing a nerdy almost raggedy hat. Whereas in skater boy the girl is almost both popular and a loser. This is because she does not interact with many unless she is doing something bad.

Close-up - facial expressions reveal emotions
Text - lexis, hes classis and important. 'Arise' meaning he could show depression, or that hes had a troubled
past. he seems to be questioning his past
the musician in the Mojo magazine is represented as mysterious and to of had a troubled past this is represented through the use of Lexus in the magazines it says 'dark knight' and 'troubled past' this. represents. the musician as a 'warrior' who has gone through many dark stages in life and has managed to create music with it. The use of camera making him stare into the distance shows that he can look back on his troubled past and move on this shows he's even stronger than the viewers thought.
the man is dressed up in a suit showing he is sophisticated it also shows he is very masculine and follows the original male norm.
the representation of males in the Mojo magazine are seen to be shown through the use of camera angles and how the mid close-up images of the magazine show the seriousness in his facial expressions. Him being serious shows he has very little to be joyfull about and thinks its all about business, promotion and money. This magazine cover photo has very much followed the gender norm, him wearing a suit shows the gender typical picture of men working hard and earning money.
