Learning Objective: You will research two events
and comment on how they have been represented in the media. Euro 2012. London
There is a possibility that you will be asked a question on the representation of events.
To answer, you must have detailed knowledge of how TWO events have been represented in TWO different ways by the media
For each of the case study texts you must do the following:
1. Identify exactly what representation has been constructed.
2. Identify HOW that representation has been constructed using textual examples
(behaviour, dialogue, sound, mise-en-scene, cinematography, editing).
Case Studies:
1: Euro 2012
2: London Riots
Task 1:
Research the two events (London riots and Euro 2012) and discuss how they were represented in the media.
Consider how the issues of racism and youth were dealt with through,
mode of address (at the bottom of the post) and creation of moral panic
Explain the positions of preferred, negotiated and oppositional readers.
Use different types of newspapers (broadsheets/tabloids) to illustrate and links to online articles about the events.
Create a Powerpoint Presentation called Representation of Events.
