Representations of Gender (Deadpool) Gender in Deadpool is represented as equal. The lead female, Vanessa does reinforce some stereotypes of a woman lead in a predominately male targeted film as she does have scenes where she isn't dressed in a lot of clothes and she is represented as a sex symbol however Wade Wilson is also represented like this especially at the start of the film when the narrative is explaining how the two came together. Hence one of the reasons why gender is represented as equal. Another reason is that both Vanessa and Wade are workers and Vanessa is a powerful woman and chooses to dress the way she does and wouldn't do anything she isn't comfortable with, this could be seen as empowering for woman as Vanessa challenges the stereotype of a woman dressing the way she does for male attention because that isn't the case she does it to work and to fend for herself, something overlooked by some people.

The narrative works to hide the ending and what is wrong with the girl as its a non linear structure meaning it does...
Music Videos In Media Hard Times - Paramore (Performance) In Hard Times the music video is a performance music video, so the band is performing the song. The music itself is quirky and very indie. This subverts the stereotype of artists with women involved or musicians that are women using the woman's body or her physical features to draw especially male attention in, this is called male gaze. The performance itself is very empowering of women as Hayley Williams the front woman of Paramore doesn't wear tight, clingy clothes and doesn't show off her body she's in fact in a baggy jumpsuit. This is so the audience concentrates on the music not the looks of the lead singer. As well as this Hayley Williams is fronting a male dominated band and she's at the fore front throughout the video so this could also seen as really empowering.

Advertisement The meaning of the advertisement is to emphasise the nourishing shampoo and the fact its a tropical scent which is very refreshing. The bright orange represents the scent that stands out, the fruit in the foreground gives the buyer an incentive to buy it especially if they like the smell of mangos and pineapples which are very tropical fruits. The background represents the cleanliness and how natural the shampoo is made. The tag lines purpose is to include the name of the company but to emphasise that this shampoo is different from all of the others especially with a word like "twist" which has connotations of different and flipped around.
