Find images in the media, which have been used to represent attractive and unattractive aspects of the human face. Examine and record carefully the photographic techniques used to accentuate both these qualities, drawing up a list that relates to the images you have found. List the physical characteristics that we have come to admire in both the male and female face and write 100 words in response to the following questions:
Do you believe that media images or public opinion are responsible for the characteristics of beauty becoming universal stereotypes?
Do you believe people admiring media images of glamorous models can do any harm?
I believe that they media images are responsible because they are the ones who can manipulate a photo and make it seem as if they were ugly.
I personally think they do have an effect on society because everyone looks to them and say they are what we call beautiful and people will do whatever it takes to look like them and when ever they do so will regular people. For example if a model was throwing up to stay skinny people might do the same thing hoping that they will look like them.
