Galaxy Blog Task.

Galaxy Blog Task.
1) Who is Audrey Hepburn?Audrey Hepburn was a huge star in the Hollywood in the 1950s and she also was a model.

2) Why did Galaxy select Audrey Hepburn for this advert? They had used her because she was a famous fashion icon,and also the advert was set onto the luxurious italian  Riveria which would make her worthy in the advert and she was popular which would boost up galaxy's brand.

3) What are the connotations of Audrey Hepburn and celebrity in this advert? This advert would be amazing for the workers and producers to boost their brand and use better equipment the connotation is people having a normal peaceful day and in the video the galaxy bar shows that peace is everywhere.


4) Why is the advert set in the 1950s? What audience pleasure does this provide?It provides intertextuality and nostalgia.

5) What is intertextuality?
I
ntertextuality is where one media product (e.g. Galaxy) makes reference to other media products (e.g. Audrey Hepburn movies such as 1953 film Roman Holiday) to interest and engage the audience.


6) What Audrey Hepburn film is suggested in this advert and how is this effect created (e.g. mise-en-scene - CLAMPS: costume, lighting, actors, make-up, props, setting)?Its suggestion would be that its in italy and they would wear things that people in italy used to wear or they do now to show its italy the make-up is heavy which shows that back in the day they used to put a lot to look beautiful in the advert the props would be the bussed the hat and the car.

7) Which of Propp's character types are represented in the advert? (Note: you will not find them all). He is seen in a more of a  flirting and classy guy when he sees Audrey he immediately uses his body language to try and communicate with Audery.
8) How does the advert's narrative (story) follow Todorov's theory of equilibrium?Any market systems can interact with any supply or demand in a market system.

9) What representations of gender can you find in this advert? a representation of gender would be that Audrey sees the man then looks at her chocolate bar and decides to go and sit in the back of his car and enjoy her galaxy chocolate which would show that the man has more power.

10) Are stereotypes reinforced or subverted in the Galaxy advert? Give examples.
women are very soft and not able to become independent since they had no rights, also the men are being portrayed as more of the romancers and that they have the ability to persuade women in most ways possible.
