This document provides research on various theorists, concepts, and brands that will help inform the creation of the author's final project. It summarizes key points about photographers Cindy Sherman and Pamela Hanson, influencer Niki Demar, and model Mia Regan. It also analyzes the brand Urban Outfitters, looking at its history, representation of gender in clothing, and evaluation of its environmental, labor, and animal welfare practices. Finally, it outlines various media theories around form, narrative, representation, and audience segmentation that will be useful for both print and film elements of the final project.

Contextual Research
1. Theorists Research and KeyConcepts, Contextual Research – [1.1,1.2]
In this document, I have compiled detailed notes on theorists, theories as well as key
conventions that will help me when creating my final project. In this research, I have
also been able to utilise my GCSE Media Studies work which includes key points in
creating a media product and also analysing it.
I have also included audience classifications research, so that I am already
considering and constantly thinking about my target audience, even If it hasn’t been
fully defined and outlined in detail.
As I am going to try and use film and print in my FMP, the theories I have studied will
discuss both types.
In all my different ideas there is one common factor which is that ‘social media
influencers’ would be used to help promote. As my ideas are all.
Practitioners/Social Media Influencers
Niki Demar
Dear popular retail stores, a
message for you;
In this YouTube video by influencer
Niki Demar, she explores the
difference between Guys and Girls
clothing.
Specifically, one of the brands she
uses as an example is Urban
Outfitters. In this video she is
criticising how clothing brands
stereotype with genders and makes
the point which she consistently
refers back to being ‘guys have
better graphic shirts with better
quality’ and ‘girls = pink and flowers’ making the argument that the girls’ clothing is
very basic and doesn’t really step out of the box in comparison to boys clothing.
2. Theorists Research and KeyConcepts, Contextual Research – [1.1,1.2]
Looking at Demar’s Instagram, there is a
common theme of bright colours
contrasting with her vibrant red hair. In
terms of the style of her Instagram,
creative is an understatement. From the
different types of photos, to the layout and
presentation, Demar’s Instagram is very
aesthetically pleasing to an audience.
Niki Demar also creates music:
https://open.spotify.com/artist/6YsltkujF8WzkCRM9S5vy5
Her music allows her to open up about emotions that she struggles to put directly
into words and also allowing her to connect with her fanbase more, as well as people
outside of her following
The reason as to why I have chosen this specific influencer is because she steps
outside of the box in terms of the conventional YouTube and is described by many
as having ‘no-filter’. She is an advocate for mental health, whilst being very open
about her own struggles mentally without worrying about the repercussions and
backlash she may face. By doing this, she is seen as a positive influence on people
as she doesn’t view the world in ‘rose-tinted glasses’ and telling the world when she
is having a bad day.
Cindy Sherman
3. Theorists Research and KeyConcepts, Contextual Research – [1.1,1.2]
Sherman is a contemporary master of socially critical photography
Sherman turned to photography towards the end of the 1970s in order to
explore a wide range of common female social roles, or personas.
Turning the camera on herself in a game of extended role playing of fantasy
Hollywood, fashion, mass advertising, and ‘girl next door’ roles and poses,
Sherman ultimately called her audience’s attention the powerful machinery
and make-up that lay behind the countless images circulating in an
incessantly public, ‘plugged in’ culture.
Sherman utilises the camera and various tools of ‘everyday cinema’, such as
makeup, costumes, and stage scenery, to recreate common illusions or iconic
‘snapshots’ that signify various concepts of public celebrity, self-confidence,
sexual adventure, entertainment, and other socially sanctioned, existential
conditions
In the vast majority of her portraits, she directly confronts the viewer’s gaze
Pamela Hanson
Hanson is one of the first women to succeed in fashion photography. With
over 20 years of experience, she has become an ‘irreplaceable part of the
photography community’
She has an impressive list of clients including Vogue, Victoria’s Secret,
Harpers Bazaar.
Her photos are bright, emphasizing her models’ natural skin textures
Her photos also add that candid feel to them, making them appear more
natural
She has directed several video and television commericals for clients
including Estée Lauder, Elizabeth and James, Avon etc.
Hanson has also received a reward from the Association of Independent
Commerical Producers (AICP) for her “Family Stories” short documentary, a
4. Theorists Research and KeyConcepts, Contextual Research – [1.1,1.2]
public service announcement collaboration with The Partnership at
Drugfree.org.
She photographs a variety of styles from editiorial, advertising, personal and
even landscape also, showing her as a talented photographer who is not
stuck to one style of photography
Mia Regan
https://thetab.com/uk/2020/01/03/who-is-mia-regan-romeo-beckham-girlfriend-
136454
Mia Regan is a model for Storm models
Her Instagram: @mimicoocher. She currently has …. Followers as of January
2021. The reasoning behind the username is linked back to her nickname
Mimi/Mooch by her friends and family. Her Instagram frequently features
festival pics, exotic places and also commonly brand sponsorship; edited in a
vibrant and creative way
Mia is currently in a relationship with footballer David Beckhams son, Romeo
Beckham and have been ‘Instagram official’ since September 2019. They
were first spotted together at Victoria Beckham’s fashion show after-party
dinner. Mia has also made an impression on the Beckham clan, she creates
cute collages, and Victoria also shares some of her latest creations to her
Instagram. She even had her modelling her new collections.
In a Q&A on her Instagram, Mimi was asked where she’s from, to which she
responded ‘Chip, near Bath
Looking at Brands
Urban Outfitters
The reason as to why I have
chosen Urban Outfitters as one of
the brands to research is
because the company was one of
my original inspirations in terms
of brands based off their social
media presence, how they
advertise to their audience and
promote themselves across
different platforms.
Owned by retail-industry giant URBN – who also own Anthropologie and Free
People, Urban Outfitters has over 2003 stores across the United States,
Canada and Europe. However, as on of the North America’s top retailers, it is
easy for consumers to be swept up in the hype of the brand, rather than
reflect upon its commitment to suitability and ethical practice. Dockrill, M.

Their Ethical Representation

They use some renewable energy in its direct operations to reduce its climate
impact, but no meaningful action has been taken to reduce or eliminate
hazardous chemicals. There is also no evidence it implements water
reduction initiatives. (Environmental Impact)
Despite having a policy stating that Urban Outfitters does “…not knowingly
carry products that use cotton originating from Uzbekistan”, in 2014 it received
the lowest score possible on a survey conducted by the Responsible Sourcing
Network that measured action taken by brands to ensure cotton originating
from Uzbekistan was not used in its products. There is also no evidence that
Urban Outfitters supplies its workers with a living wage. (Labour Conditions)
There is no evidence UO has an animal welfare policy, while it does not use
fur, down, angora, or exotic animal skin, it does use leather, wool and exotic
animal hair from unspecified sources. There is no evidence it traces any
animal products to the first stage of production. (Animal Welfare)

Todorov’s theory of narrative
Tzvetan Todorov studied fairy tales and came up with the following narrative theory:

2. Disruption – an even disrupts the normality
3. Recognition – the hero recognises the disruption.
4. Complications – the hero meets problems in trying to restore the equilibrium
5. New Equilibrium
Levi-Strauss binary opposites
Strauss claimed thar stories can only exist with binary opposites, which are elements that are
against each other, for example:
Macro binary opposites
Hero – Villain
Protagonist – Antagonist
Motivator – Observer
Empowered – Victim
Micro binary opposites
Woman – Man
Beauty – Ugly
Strong – Weak

are essential,notluxurious.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
10. Theorists Research and KeyConcepts, Contextual Research – [1.1,1.2]
This theory has been very much linked to how advertisers target the wants and needs of their
target audience by appealing to them on as many levels as the pyramid has,
For example, Coca Cola can fulfil the psychological needs of level 1, but the social acceptance
that comes from drinking Coke Zero could appeal to those on level 3. In addition, Diet Coke
consumers could be drinking the sugar-free drink to help boost their self-esteem at level 4 to try
achieving the self-actualisation of being fit and healthy.
Self-Actualisation
The need to succeed and become what you wish to be
Esteem
Self-esteem, status, respect and admiration
Love/Belonging
The need to belong to a group
Safety
Personal security (jobs, friends)
Psychological
Food, shelter, etc.
Uses and Gratifications
The Uses and Gratification theory is used to analyse why people interact with/consume media
products
Personal Identity
Our lives may be reflected in the text (we may see
a storyline or an incident that has happened to us
at some point in our lives or at the same time)
Diversion, Escapism, Entertainment
The text may help us escape from reality for a
while (almost like a safety valve from the
frustrations of daily life)
Personal Relationships, Social Interaction
We may treat the text as a friend, or a discourse in
our life (the regularity of EastEnders helps
audiences build a relationship with the programme
Surveillance, Information
A text may give us information about a particular
issue/subject
Secondary Audiences
Primary Audience
Your main target audience
Secondary Audience
Who will also engage with the product as a secondary.
11. Theorists Research and KeyConcepts, Contextual Research – [1.1,1.2]
Advertisement Theories
These theories illustrate how and why advertising is effective in influencing the customers’ behaviour
and accomplishing its objectives. There are various theories on advertising and most of them
propagate that the success of advertising is controlled by the main practices being carried out which
include frequent brand exposure and repetitive advertising.
The Mediation of Reality
Advertisements are successful when they are integrated with other media and environments
in which they are completely submerged. Example: In a GUESS advertisement, Paris Hilton
steps down the helicopter escorted by a helper or a boyfriend rolled into one. She manifests
the expression of wealth and glamour, playing her private life out in public as a governess,
model, and reality TV star. The ad blurs the boundaries between reality and a dream
Shifting Loyalties
Ads mirror changing loyalties. They prompt customers to shift their loyalties and to disown
their current ones for often a relatively new brand in the market. Example: Changing customer
loyalties from Colgate, a brand which one has been uses since ages to Close-up after
watching an exciting ad on television which revealed advantages of using close-up healthier
gums and whiter teeth
The Image of the Meaning
Advertisements carry on a strong message with a meaning instilled in them. Ads touch our
values, emotions, and the underlying beliefs. In 1962, a cultural theorist Raymond Williams
explained how advertising had swept the goal of selling goods and is more associated with
teaching social and personal values, which is promptly entering politics too. Advertisements
are organised magic’s that hide the real intention of selling the house, which is to sell a
product to make profits. Example: Insurance companies sell their retirement plans, showing
benefits they provide in your environment.
The Hidden Message
Certain ads misrepresent and misguide the consumers. Packard declared that advertising is
threatening since it uses psychology to form emotionally loaded messages and as the
messages are hidden, the viewers critical resilience is dodged and minimized.
Imitative Desire
12. Theorists Research and KeyConcepts, Contextual Research – [1.1,1.2]
Advertisements tend to act upon the prospect’s mind. It’s been observed that people usually
have the desire of becoming others, especially when the other person is famous, beautiful or
powerful. But the reality is it’s impossible for someone to become like another. However, this
impossibility keeps the desire alive in all of us. The soul of the ritual is that people work in
communities through imaginative projection towards others.
Advertising Theories in Media & Product Testing
Ever since the rise of mass communications in the early 20th century, marketers, advertisers,
and communicators have based much of their campaign strategies on a central assumption:
the premise that advertising convinces and persuades consumers of the products they should
buy. A dominant model of this strategy for the past century has been the AIDA model,
outlined formally by Timothy Joyce (1967). Attention – Interest – Desire – Action. The AIDA
model assumes that consumers are rational; that they become aware of a brand or category,
take an interest in how the brand can benefit them, recognise their desire or fit based on the
brand’s offerings, and then take action in the form of a purchase or consumption. The model
falls into the Cognitivist, or Strong Theory, of consumer behaviour because it relies on the
belief that customers are thinking, evaluating, and acting intentionally through a linear,
cognitive purchase process. Because it is seen in the Strong Theory as having the power to
change attitudes, advertising is perceived to be persuasive and convincing enough to move
non-purchasers to start using a brand.
Advertising Theory
This theory book provides detailed and current explorations of key theories in the advertising
discipline. It gives a working knowledge of the primary theoretical approaches of advertising, offering
a comprehensive synthesis of the vast literature in the area.
It has been developed as a forum in which to compare, contrast, and evaluate advertising theories in
a comprehensive and structured presentation. Chapters provide concrete examples, case studies,
and readings written by leading advertising scholars and educators.
13. Theorists Research and KeyConcepts, Contextual Research – [1.1,1.2]
Representation Theory
Representation refers to the construction in any medium (especially the mass media) of
aspects of reality such as people, places, objects and so on.
The easiest way to understand the concept of representation is to remember that watching a
TV programme is not the same as watching something happen in real life. All media products
re-represent the real world to us; they show us one version of reality, not reality itself. So the
theory of representation in media means thinking about how a particular person or group of
people are being presented to the audience.
Representations require interpretation – we make judgements about them based upon our
own experiences and backgrounds.
The way certain groups of people are represented in the media can have a huge social
image. For example, would people’s attitudes to asylum seekers change if they were
presented differently in the media.
When media producers want you to assume certain things about a character, they play on
existing representations of people in the media. But also, they can change the way certain
groups are presented, and thus change the way we see that particular group.
The Hypodermic Needle Theory
Dating back to the 1920s, this theory was the first attempt to explain how mass audiences
might react to mass media. It is a model that suggests that audiences passively (active and
passive audience theory) receive the information transmitted via a media text, without any
attempt on their part to process or challenge the data
This theory suggests that, as an audience, we are manipulated by the creators of media texts,
and that our behaviour and thinking might be easily changed by media-makers.
Contextual Statement
The people I have researched are influential to me because of the impact they have on their
audience. For example, Niki Demar, by her going against the ‘status quo’ it makes her stand out to
many people.
A reason as to why I look at these specific influencers and theorists is because I can utilise their work
in my own. Looking at certain theories such as audience and marketing/advertisement theories it has
allowed me to think of what to include in my product and how to make it ‘successful’.
I am making the product I am considering is because throughout covid, something that has kept me
grounded in a sense is discovering a new style and being able to embrace more of my personality
through clothing. I feel by doing this, it is my way of expressing myself in a creative and personal way.
14. Theorists Research and KeyConcepts, Contextual Research – [1.1,1.2]
In terms of this project, I have done similar pieces such as the social media layouts however the rest
is relatively new to me however I think this will be exciting as it will give me chance to use and
improve on my skills and showcase what I can do.
Covid can affect my work as I am limited to models to use in my products. As much as I would love to
have a variety of people to show things such as size inclusivity, that is very unlikely to happen and will
have to be something I go into more depth in for my planning. In terms of equipment, I will be using, I
am very fortunate that I have access to my own personal media equipment such as editing software,
camera and lighting so that issue will not be too large for me. If lockdown continues throughout
production, I will have to resort to possibly 1 model and will be very limited in terms of locations.
