Independent Study Proposal:

Question:
Have the representations of teenagers in the British Media changed for the better or have they become worse? With particular reference to the film, ADULTHOOD.

Hypothesis:
Teenagers are increasingly each year being represented in an unconstructive and negative manner within the British Media.

Brief Summary:
Representations of teenagers within the British Media have progressed and developed over the years, as each year the British Media representations of teenagers have become increasingly enhanced in a negative manner each year. In fact you could say that the British Media portray and represent teenagers in the most unconstructive and degrading way, than any media across the globe. As Adulthood is the most updated media text (British Film) on how teenagers are presented and portrayed, I will be specifically focusing on whether these views of them are becoming increasingly worse or changing in a more positive manner.
