Favourite types of media

1. Movies


Movies are one of my all time favourite types of media which is due to many old films such a Stanley Kubrick's 'The Shining' and Quentin Tarantino's 'Pulp Fiction', these two films in particular are brilliant symbols of masterpieces in the film studios because they both hold key aspects that make the film memorable and loved from Samuel L. Jackson setting the movies atmosphere and main protagonists by reciting the verse from the bible of Ezekiel 25:17 to Jack Nicholson slowly walking towards Shelley Duvall shouting "you've had your whole fucking life to think things over, what's a few minutes more gonna do you now!?" whilst she sobs manically, which was her genuine reaction to the actual acting performed by Jack at the time, showing that Jack might of had a bit too much devotion to the character, but that is what makes a film, dedication and devotion combined with loved poured into every crack of the films depths.




2. Video Games
Video games have always been apart of my life, ever since I was 2 in fact. They hold great story content and are a great way to express the developers beliefs. Games come in a wide variety, from Story driven games such as 'Transistor' to Fighting games such as the 'Street Fighter' series. Within these games hold a community however, most hold their own personalities inside them and keep games thriving and developing more and more until the ceiling is broken. These reasons are why I love video games, they are about fun, story and memorable moments and they hold enjoyment for everyone regardless of age or gender.









3. TV
Related imageTV has always been a powerful force, it controls people's point of views and provides people with a new window into a reality set by the directors. TV shows such as 'Mindhunter' provide a view into the mind of a psychopath and develops on what it was like to be a detective/cop back in the 70s with themes of homophobia and racism being randomly littered in the atmosphere of the film.
