Diversity in Media Response

For the still image video project, I plan on doing a public service announcement on feminism. Feminism is not only an issue that I am very passionate about but it is also something that has become taboo because people often have a misconstrued understanding of what it truly means to be a feminist. I could start off the video with an image of what people view “stereotypical” feminists to look like and show “meninists” which is the male mockery of feminism, and eventually show what actual feminists look like (i.e. men and women who believe that men shouldn't automatically have more rights than women). If I had to present the PSA in another medium such as print, I would do the same thing but with descriptive language to accompany the picture instead of audio. If I were to target a specific demographic like gender, I would adapt my commentary to sell feminism to males, who probably haven’t given this important topic much thought.
