Representation

Representations 

Stereotypes: Media industries use stereotypes because the audience will instantly understand them. Think of stereotypes as a 'visual shortcut'. They're repeated so often that we assume they are normal or 'true'.

Archetypes: This is the 'ultimate' stereotype. for example, the white stiletto wearing, big busted, brainless blonde bimbo.

Countertype: A representation that challenges tradition stereotypes associations of groups, people and places.       


Gatekeepers: This is anyone involved in a media productions with the power to make a decision about something the audience are allowed to read, hear or see- and of course, not get to see; for instance, a newspaper editor has the final say on what goes on the newspaper.
