In this weeks lecture, our exercise was to walk along the streets of Melbourne City, to find and capture any forms of media. My groups location was China Town. In China Town, the main source of media that is produced and used on the streets is advertisement. A mass amount of advertisement is created for every type of shop along China Town, and many different businesses in general. A lot of effort has gone into the advertisement of flyers that are stuck on the walls of the streets to attract as many people as possible, to get people looking and being interested their shops and whatever else the ads were selling.
The language within the advertisement is also interesting to note, as it is not just English, Chinese language is also being printed onto the ads, in order to persuade many people from different backgrounds, to communicate the message of the advertisement.
