Problems then solutions

Our problem was that the warehouse that we are filming at declined our request to throw the powder paint around their car park. Alice then got in touch with county council and they delined our request as well.
Luckily, I have grandparents that own a huge space of land. I asked them on Friday and they had to have a discussion with each other before they gave ma an answer. They got back to me on October, 13th and they agreed to ou rrequest if we can make sure that the paint will not stain the grass.

Youth Cultures

Youth cultures are formed from a specific dress code/ fashion, music influences, rebellion again what society deems 'the norm', having a collective identity with in this group and being marginalised and misunderstood. The word teenager falls into and means a constructed social group. This word teenager could have been created by marketers to seel products to this specific group of young people.


Ketley theory 2007- "Among young people themselves, a wide range of colourful labels such as "Goths, Skaters, Greebos and Surfers" are often used to make distinctions between the behaviours of specific frienship groups"

Critera for their to be a youth culture include:
  • dress code
  • music influences
  • expression
  • being marginalised
  • having an opinionated leader
  • literature- fan magazine and fan websites
  • fitting into a group but then also being an outsider.
Collective identity is the self that finds its solidarity with others who are similar.
Mediated, this is how the media influences and portrays social groups and the influence this has on their identity.
"We" media means that the marginalised social groups
have often used media as a way of forgiving theirown collective identity.
Prosumers are producers and consumers, we consume and distribute- due to the proliferation of technology.
