Audience theories
You should have posted a summary of the hypodermic needle/effects theory on your blog. You now need to investigate what The Active Audience (signs and signifiers), Mode of Address and Ethnographic model mean in terms of media studies and the audience. Post this information on your blog.

Hey miss. Some of my pictures havent loaded up properly and i dont know why. All help would be greatly appreciated. Also for our exam question with Mr Palmer im confused. Would the ideology for the tin man for example be to get his heart? thankyou.
Hi Sam,
your pictures seem to be on your blog now. If you're having problems just click on settings and have a look through to see if some options have been selected in error.
With regards to the Ideology essay, don't think so literally. Think in terms of representations and metaphors. What does the tin man think of himself before Dorothy comes along? How, then, does he feel once Dorothy is there and they have sang their song? How is he treated at the gates to the Emerald City? Ideology is about a set of ideas for life... Karl Marx talked about these ideas originating from the powerful and influencing the public. What is the ideology for Oz and how do you think this has affected the tin man?
Goodluck!

Getting up-to-date with your blogs...
Everything that you have been asked to put on your blogs is posted below. The only things that are not are what we have done most recently in the lessons:
1. A movie poster (annotated) which displays the conventions of its genre, therefore demonstrating how genre can be used as a marketing tool.
2. A picture and explanation of a high profile person who demonstrates a certain ideology, e.g. Katie Price = glamour, sex.
If you are still not sure have a look at some of the other blogs - some of them are looking great!
Goodluck!
