THE SUN LEFT OR RIGHT WING
This
poster has a direct, formal mode of address. This is established by a with
a cut out of Lord Kitchener with a
straight face and a pointing finger, pointing towards the person reading. Using
Kitchener was good because he was a “figure of absolute will and power, an
emblem of British masculinity”
which helped to inspire young men to join the army. The headline addresses us
as a nation in a bold red san-serif font, the red can represent passion for
helping Britain.
The
magazines picture has an indirect, formal mode of address. Both characters are
in costume though ‘Lois Lane’s costume is more casual. Superman's costume is
very patriotic using the colours red
and blue. Their stance is very stereotypical pose for superheroes.
T|HE BIG ISSUE
A key part of the way that we work with Big Issue vendors is by identifying and motivating individuals to engage with the services that will help them move forward and deal with their homelessness, health issues and achieve their own goals.
Our objectives are:
‘Vendor-centric’ – our charity work is led by the hopes and aspirations of Big Issue vendors
‘Inclusive’ – social and financial inclusion at the heart of our philosophy
‘Non-judgmental’ – we work with anyone who is prepared to engage with self-help.
Through this approach we seek to ensure that our vendors have the following:
- somewhere meaningful to call home
- access to a doctor and equality of access to health care opportunities
- the essential support that is needed to overcome addictions
- direct help with business skills to maximize independent earnings
- the crucial personal identification that opens so many doors
- access to additional financial support and secure saving opportunities
- the opportunity to re-connect with family members and loved ones.
How does the Big Issues beliefs reflect
the type of stories covered in the magazine content opposite?
Note: you will need to research around
the coverlines,
imagery and celebrities
What is the social, cultural and
political context linked to the strap line “libraries are so vital”
The big issue publishes stories about real world problems such as homelessness, education, and suicide, though it also publishes big news about actors, movies ect. The big issue publishes stories like these because it relates to the people selling them, and it may help to convince the better off people to help fund programmes to help other people who are worse off. The beliefs of the big issue are to give a helping and but not a hand out. They want to create a better future for people in need. On this cover it is talking about how libraries might be closed down, and they want to help by keeping them open. They support libraries because it can be a learning support for children and adults, it can also be helpful to those who work long hours and can't look after their children at home (or children who need to do schoolwork/homework in a focused area) http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/closing-libraries-is-a-fine-way-to-keep-the-poor-powerless-a6958631.html
