NOTES
- 5 minutes to plan
- list similarities and differences -> judgement
- use structure to write it!
in the GQ cover David Beckham is represented as sophisticated he is wearing a tuxedo which has connotations of wealth and elegance this contrasts with the cosmo cover where Carrie Underwood is represented as fun and sexy
How is gender represented?
- anti stereotype is that on COSMO there is a male rather then a female when it is a magazine targeted at females and on GQ there is a female rather then a male
- the men have been represented differently to the normal male stereotype - represented in a feminine way on cosmo
- the colors and style on cosmo is stereotypically feminine ( pink/yellow)
- the female on GQ has been sexually objectified by her not wearing any clothes and her hand placement on her face appears flirty
- connotations to greek mythology and medusa - powerful (if you look into her eyes youll get turned into stone) deadly/scary/sexy
- stereotypical representation of a gay man - cosmo
- megative female representation- gq
- stereotypically muted color pallete - gq

Case study 1 raheem sterling
Born in kingston jamaica
He is 5'8
hes been playing the highest level of football since the age of 17
born on december 1994
began his carrer at queens park rangers
Sterlings carrer started his carrer at queens park rangers before signing to liverpool in 2010, 2 years later sterling made his senior debut for england starting in a friendly way to sweden 9 years later, he transferred to Manchester city where the media started to present young black footballers in a different way to young white footballers.
Raheem sterling GQ analysis
The masthead is in a big bold and large sans serif font.
The main cover line 'Guardian angel' was suggests that sterling is presented as an angel but angels are streotypically white with angel wings but because hes black and the case is about people who are being racially abused his wings are black.
the cover image was inspired by nick knights photograph for Travis scotts album birds in the trap
ASSESSMENT IMPROVEMENT
the main image shows sterling standing in a confident stance with a large pair of black wings he is looking at he camera with a serious face which clearly directly addresses the audience that he is brave and strong.
