Today we:
- Reviewed what representations are and their siginificance in TVDs
- Focused on how representations of gender and lifestyle were presented in the previously posted 'Hollyoaks' clip
An extension for last week's HL task was given: by tomorrow (Thursday 11th Dec) morning on the blog please.
HL for Wed 17th December 2008:
1. Watch a Hospital TVD the WHOLE way through eg, Holby City, ER, etc
2. Answer, in detail, the questions provided on the handout ("The conventions of realism") - PF and SK need to collect these from me before Friday, or photocopy from another student.
Please note: no lesson on Monday 15th Dec as I am out. Use this time to update ALL of your Media blogs and sort out your notes. Also start researching the next topic: The Music Industry - find out about how a record label promotes an artist. Pick a band or artist of your choice.

Mr. Shaikh,
I am a PhD student in Mass Comm at Penn State University. I like the way you listed the characteristics of the TV drama so succinctly in your first post and would like to use your information in a paper I am currently writing. Could you either let me know how to cite you properly (Mr. Shaikh is not proper APA format) or send me your references? It would be much appreciated.
If you are the author of the information in the first post, you should try to get it published. I have not been able to find other references with it defined as clearly as yours.
Thank you,
Shannon
