LANGUAGE- The genre of this game would be crime and action alongside a first-person shooter game. The title of the video game is bold and is on a contrasting colour. The date the game is released is below the title and also it is in the same colour but in a smaller font. There name of the platform is also stated on the advert so it shows what it's available on.
INSTITUTION- The publisher of this video game is Activision and was developed by Treyarch. The game is only available for pre-ordering for at least £60. This is because of the platform it's available on alongside the high demand for the game. Activision have a good reputation for their other Call of Duty games, this leads to Call of Duty: Ghosts being a high demanded game.
AUDIENCE- This game is aimed for mostly males at the age of 18-25 however those who mostly play Call of Duty are 13-24 year old males, a small percentage (8%) of females those ages also engaged in the game and play it quite often.
REPRESENTATION- A character from the game in a mask with one hand covered in a glove holding the mask half way up his head is beside the release date and title to attract audience as they will recognise the image from previous Call of Duty games. The soldier on the cover is wearing a mask which may suggest that as a soldier and going to war you may witness seeing unusual things such as people who have past away during the war. He may have half the mask on his head because he doesn't want to take it fully off and actually see a ghost.
WWW: This is an excellent analysis, one of the best I've read. Your media language paragraph is very strong in picking out the key conventions.
ReplyDeleteEBI: Representation is weaker - we will cover that as part of the coursework.
LR: Try and write a little about the image of the man for representation - what does it suggest about soldiers?
I wrote a little about the soldier.
