Which of the 8 rules of Media Literacy is illustrated in the Beauty and Body Image article? Why and how

1. The media construct reality
 It is construct reality because it talks about how the body of women works in the way we look at it.
The way media sends out a message to us about the good and bad of a women's body which makes us think it is true, but in reality, its just a media at its worst, as always.


2. The article on advertising to children is a great example of media constructing reality (#2 rule of Media Literacy). Can you think of an example of media constructed reality aimed at teens? Tell me what it is and how it constructs reality.


The way media can change a teens view is put a lot of effort in the way teen thinks these days. Like for instance, you can tell about a celebrity's good and bad anyway you like and who's to tell you that your wrong? Lets just say nobody can do anything about it because no one knows the truth to the lie its just all the way you look at it. They can change your view from computer, magazine, and television 


3. The commercial implications (#4) of media literacy are illustrated in The Economics of Ethnicity link. Do you think most media does a good job of showing what your real life is like? The number of minority people you see daily, the kinds of problems you have in real life, the way those problems get solved - are these things that you see in TV shows, movies and advertising?

Commercial

So we did a commercial about media art class. This commercial is about what did we do all these years in our media art class and how we over come some of the problem. I like the commercial mostly because it is about our media art class. I did the voice recording and some of the recording of stephanie. We also did a PSA.

PSA about smoking

Our PSA This past couple of weeks we have been doing a PSA about smoking. The PSA is about how bad smoking is to human health and what happened to our relatives. We made our PSA with Kirthi, she is our biggest help with the PSA. Our movie editor Nicky did all the video, picture, and editing. The guys from San Francisco Film Society are the one who came and thought up the idea about PSA. We had fun with the PSA because we get to pick our own PSA idea. I picked smoking because i want other people to know that smoking to bad for them.

I hope that people will look and listen to this PSA and think about smoking twice before they do it.

M.C Esher

The picture I made was a drawing similar to M.C Esher's relativity drawing it shows different perspective of the picture you make. The picture might look like it's upside down but if you were standing in it you will think differently. The experience I had was a strange one because when I made the picture it looks funny until I fix the problem and my teacher say its good. What I'm getting at is that I admire M.C Esher's art work.
