Research Into the Message


Research into the Message



The message of our music video will be about women empowerment, rights and equality. For this I have chosen to use the song "salute" by Little Mix as its lyrics portrays this message very clearly.

In order to portray this message I am using characters that represent important women historical figures. For example:

Florence Nightingale - (1820 – 1910) British nurse. By serving in the Crimean war, Florence Nightingale was instrumental in changing the role and perception of the nursing profession. Her dedicated service won widespread admiration and led to a significant improvement in the treatment of wounded soldier

Mother Teresa -  (1910 – 1997) – Albanian nun/ charity work. Devoting her life to the service of the poor and dispossessed Mother Teresa became a global icon for selfless service to others. Through her Missionary of Charities organisation she personally cared for thousands of sick and dying people in Calcutta.

Margret Thatcher  - (1925 – 2013) The first female Prime minister of Great Britain, she governed for over 10 years, putting emphasis on individual responsibility and a belief in free markets. (10 hidden)

Marilyn Monroe - (1926 – 1962) American actress who became one of the most iconic film legends. Her films were moderately successful, but her lasting fame came through her photogenic good looks and aura of glamour and sophistication.

JK Rowling - (1965 – ) British author of the phenomenal bestselling Harry Potter series. The volume of sales was so high; it has been credited with leading a revival of reading by children. She wrote the first book as a single mother, struggling to make ends meet, but is now one of most successful self-made woman.

Malala Yousafzai - (1997 – ) Pakistani schoolgirl who defied threats of the Taliban to campaign for the right to education. She survived being shot in the head by the Taliban and has become a global advocate for women’s rights, especially the right to education

Research


Research

When we were doing our research for the music video we wanted to created, we looked in places such as the Media Magazine. In this we found an image similar to the one we created in our music video. The image is of Beyoncé posing in the same position portraying the same message we wanted to get across. The message being that women can do anything that they want regardless of their gender as they are equally important.

Questionnaire Results

Text Box: Results from Questionnaire
I have collated the results from the questionnaire and presented it into charts. It allows us to see the results clearly so we can act upon them when creating our media product.
