For my personal study I am going to be looking into the idea of Glamour photography and the high amounts of photo manipulation that is used within the media industry and what effects that has on various different social groups in society. This is a topic that I have very strong views about and I am also very interested in ways in which the media and photo editors create a hyper-reality that we are all expect as we are so used to seeing it as on a daily basis we are exposed to it wether we realise it or not.
Glamour photography - Looking at how photo manipulation can create a distorted or unrealistic view of the self.
These are some of the topics that I plan to look at and cover within this personal study:
- How women/ Men are represented within the media, how this is effected by a target audience?
- Expectations? Hyper reality/ Unrealistic view
- What are the effects of photo manipulation? Social effects?
- Legal aspects/ Morals
