Products & Audiences - Issues Of Representation

Image
My Game Forza Motorsport 6 doesn't portray women, gay people, trans people or different cultures bad because people don't really appear in the game the only time they're in the game is when they're in the crowd and it's both men and women in the crowd because anyone can be in the crowd watching a race. Also in the crowd there is probably an equal amount of men/women of different races so my game is not being negative in portraying different sex's, race's and cultures. Also the women are wearing normal clothes in the game and there not wearing sexually revealing clothes everyone is just wearing regular clothes.

Products & Audiences - Audience Response

The Magic Bullet theory of Media is how media products get something from the product into the user's head. I believe the theory is true because most products must get something into the user's head. For example first-person shooters have caused some people to go around shooting as for my product i think it might encourage the user's to start racing and speeding as the game's a racing game and their are some fast cars in it. The positives for my game is it's not a violent game so it won't get that sort of idea in someones head and the negatives for my game is the cars can drive fast and crash into each other so it could make someone do that. So overall i don't think my game is a violent but there is some fast driving in it so users need to be careful.
