Representation.
Media representations are the ways in which the media portrays particular groups, communities, experiences, ideas, or topics from a particular ideological or value perspective. I found out today that there are alot of different character stereotypes ranging from 'The popular jock' to the 'Token black guy'
Dale |
The Hillbilly stereotype: Hillbillies are poor, white farmers. In Movies they tend to drink excessively, drive pick up trucks and be uneducated.
Mise En Scene: Dale wears a checkered shirt, with dungarees, which is the most popular costume used to potray the 'hillbilly' character. His speech is informal and full of grammatical errors to emphasise that he is uneducated.
Seth |
Normally quite unattractive, is accompanied by a couple friends that play a part in some sort of scheme to hook up with girls.
