Connotation - 50 cent is providing the viewers of this advert with special quotes and shows his background and what he lives by for example "where i am from there is no plan B" this quote shows to the reader that he follows certain believes that he doesn't change for anyone. The idea of 50 cent being the centre of the media text makes the viewers want to aspire to be like him therefore the use of showing what he follows makes the audience want to incorporate that into their own life to be like 50 cent.

Denotation - The Media Text also uses creates certain ideologies that make us the viewer and readers question our ideologies and methods of living to be more alike a mega star such as 50 cent by copying some of his aspects of his life such as his ways of living.  The denotation is male black man wearing a hat staring at the camera.


Colour - The use of colour or the lack of colour makes the viewers question as they have an idea of the struggle that 50 cent has been through and some form of trauma he has been through and this therefore makes the audience intrepid as he has seen a lot and has been through a lot.

Pose - The producer has intentionally had 50 cent stand at a angle to create a idea of him going through a lot and therefore makes an idea of him going through a struggle. This also makes it harder for us the viewer to feel sorry and therefore makes it hard for us to feel a sense of sympathy due to his strong persona.

 Framing - The image takes up half of the page so we know its equally important to the text on the left. The inspirational quote is reflecting the life of 50 cent so the text and image work and in hand together to paint the poster. 
The use of the quote and text makes us the reader feel as though that 50 cent has been through a struggle and has therefore been through a lot which makes us feel a sense of sympathy and has also been through a majority of a hard life which makes us feel a connection with 50 cent and feel as though we need to do something such as go and buy a Reebok good.

Read  this extract from Media, Gender and Identity by David Gauntlett . This is another university-level piece of academic writing so it will be challenging - but there are some fascinating ideas here regarding the changing representation of men and women in the media. If you can't access David Gauntlett's website, the text is  also available here . 1) What examples does Gauntlett provide of the "decline of tradition"? How can we link our advertising CSPs (Score hair cream and Maybelline 'That Boss Life') to this idea? Examples of a decline of masculinity that Gauntlett described were:  Role models Masculinity possibly in crisis The diversity of sexualities Gender trouble 2) How does Gauntlett suggest the media influences the way we construct our own identities? Gauntlett suggests that as people it is normal for us to construct our identities through what we see from our parents, as well as on social media. Another factor that we may use to construct id

Score Advert and Wider Reading (NC)

Score hair cream advert Answer the following questions to ensure you have a comprehensive textual analysis of the Score hair cream advert: 1)  What year was the advert produced and why is the historical context important? This advert was made in the 1960s. This is important in terms of context due to the fact that around this time women were standing up for their rights in order to achieve equality more than they had at that point in time. This is a clear link to the Score hair cream advert as is it evidently sexist. 2) Analyse the mise-en-scene in the advert (CLAMPS): how is costume, make-up and placement of models constructed to show male dominance? Costume The costumes of the models display dominance due to the fact that the women have minimal clothing clothing on, meaning that we are able to see a lot of skin, whereas with the man, who is the main interest in the advert, only has his arms showing, which presents this idea of dominance and strength compared to the women as well as
