Wanted: blog articles

Would you like to write an article about any aspect of media, have it published on the blog, and be credited for it?

We're looking for interesting, informative and/or challenging articles to publish on the blog. This is an excellent opportunity to practice your exam technique while researching and writing about something you genuinely love. It's also a great way to provide exemplar analysis to other students taking media!
There is no minimum or maximum word count, nor is there any limitation on content (within reason...). All submissions will be vetted by either Jack or myself and may be edited for style and content. This is standard practice when submitting academic articles to a publication.

You can write about anything, but here's the kind of things we would like to see. These are all just examples, so please submit anything you like!


  • Textual analysis of the opening credits of your favourite TV show 
  • Representation of an  ethnic group in music videos
  • How a genre has changed over time, comparing media products
  • How social media users construct and even manipulate their audience
  • Examples of how television producers have tried and failed to target young audiences
  • 'Meme culture'
  • Five tips to create professional quality work in Photoshop/Premiere
