3) How does the Harry Brown trailer position the audience to respond to the teenage characters in the film? It may make the audience despise young adults and make them judge them more thinking that they commit crimes and don't care about the law.
4) Why might young people reject this reading and construct an oppositional reading of the trailer? Young people may make a oppositional reading of the advert because the advert presents a burger that has many different chemicals on it to make it look appealing but instead people may find it quite gross and not like the burger.
Look at this McDonald's advert:
5) Write a 150+ word analysis of the McDonald's advert using preferred, negotiated and op positional readings.
The preferred
readings for this advertisement may want to make people hungrier when looking
at the burger and make them want to buy it from their fast food chain therefore
making more money for the fast food chain but people may have a op positional reading of the text and find the burger gross and full of fat and cheese
because of the big mac structure which is two fat MacDonald’s beef patties
which has cheese but barely any source of protein apart from the cabbage but
even that wouldn’t make up for the amount of calories you’d consume after
eating the big burger and would make you more hungry and will ruin your health
making you fatter by consuming the fast food chains burger. As a result you
would lose money and ruin your health and on top of that the company would benefit
from you buying their burger from their fast food chain.

reading for the advertisement is an expense of a drink that will harm your
health and damage your teeth as it becomes a habit the more you drink it
wasting most of your money and harming your teeth and health also it will risk
you getting diseases the more you consume the product. The oppositional readings
for this advert is people going against the idea that coke is a good family
drink that everyone can share and enjoy so that the company can make a lot of
money out of people when they buy their drinks from retail super markets or
when they order their products at him.
