- This will be assessed by being given a maximum of 20 marks for the analysis of argument, a maximum of 20 marks for the se of examples from the clip and a maximum of 10 marks for the use of terminology giving the maximum marks of 50. 


Representation: a definition - read, watch, understand
What is this concept relationship to reality? With an example
- The relationship of representation to reality is that it is an imitation of real life and are artificial versions of reality. It is often done to convey the perfection of a celebrity. However without this we would have a limited idea of reality and we need the media to understand reality. 
- An example is the photoshopping of a celebrity. This shows an image of someone that has been edited to make them appear flawless. This is often done for models and celebrities in magazines to show 'perfection' to the audience. It is often done to make others want to aspire to look like them because they are 'perfect', however this is an unrealistic view of a person.
