What is the framework?

No matter how epic or how creative you’re the Media Studies framework provides you with the tools to help you develop a critical understanding of the media.

The framework underpins the study of the media in all three components of the specification and is made up of four inter-related areas.
  • Media language: how the media communicates meaning through their forms, codes and conventions, and techniques.
  • Representation: how the media portray events, issues, individuals and social groups.
  • Media Industries: how production, distribution and circulation are linked to an affect media forms and platforms.
  • Audiences: how media forms target, reach and address audiences. How audiences might interpret and respond to different media forms and how audiences may themselves become producers.
