HOW MINECRAFT IS MARKETED DIFFERENTLY - ESSAY

When Minecraft was officially released, marketing was solely based on word of mouth. Due to its never-ending possibilities it became pretty popular. With the help of YouTube, Minecraft has become one of the most popular games as it allowed users to show other fans their creations and how they have used the game.

Pitch, Statement of Intent and Mockups

Pitch My aim for my billboard posters in relation to Fairtrade is to try and show the equality within the brand through the posters themselves. I will try and do this by using an outdoor setting, because it has that correlation to nature and represents that natural environment.

American Beauty - Scene Analysis

Representation  Lester is represented as a submissive and pathetic person, this is shown through his hunched over posture and the way he always obeys to whatever his wife tells him to do. This is the complete opposite to his wife who is a very loud and tumultuous person. She is seen as the master at the table whereas it would usually be the father of the family. However, she has to be quite caring as she took a lot of time preparing a big meal for her family. Then there is Jane, who seems to be the most collected out of all the family, even though she is stereotypical confused and delusional teenager. Mise En Scene The mise en scene in this scene from American Beauty is used to express the personalities of the family. For instance, Lester is wearing very bland clothes, much like the interior of the house, which shows that his life is boring and repetitive. It could also show that he blends in with the house as if he is not there, which would make sense as he stated at th...
