The idea of representation has to deal with being based on actual experience and based on an actual reason. Representation also has to also deal with a specific group being labeled and once a specific group is labeled or a stereotype is created for that group others will never look at the group the same because of how much prejudice is built up. According to Chapter 4 Representation, states, " The term has the capacity to suggest that some media re -present, over and over again, certain images, stories, situations. This can make them seem ‘natural’ or familiar – and thereby marginalize or even exclude other images, making those un familiar or even threatening." In other words, this evidence is saying once the media is brought up man of times it can make the labeling seem more comfortable to others so, it won't be that hard for someone to make a preconceived opinion on a topic.
What was your plan for taking the photos? What was the process like during taking the photos? How did they come out? Do you think you'll need to update them in any way? My plan for taking the photos was to take pictures of a Breoanna Taylor and a George Floyd mural to help understand what is being signified or to help give a better representation. I did not end taking the pictures but to be more creative I sketched two murals with Breoanna Taylor and a George Floyd. The sketches came out better than I expected others looked at them before I presented them. Sketching has to deal with forming the right visual and I redid it a couple times before I even showed it to others and presented to more peoples. There were positive ideas about the sketches I made so I don't think they should be updated.
