Media profile
1.) I believe that media is extremely important in my life. My whole life I've grown up with a massive interest in music, movies and video games. Media has impacted my entire life up until this point and I couldn't imagine a life without electronic media as a form of entertainment.
2.) The one type of media I easily feel the most passionate about is video games.
From an early age, I've always been a person who loves video games. When I was young, my father bought us a Playstation 2 with a copy of Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 and from then, I was hooked. I've been playing video games since I was a kid and I even play fighting games today competitively today.
I often play Tekken 7 in tournaments and I've even won a couple. I have dreams of playing in the Evolution Championship Series, or EVO.
Music is deeply important to me. In movies, in TV and in games, music is always a factor that stands out to me as being extremely important. I've had my eyes and ears on all kinds of music with some..strict opinions. But I've always been extremely invested in music and grown up with it.
Movies are also very important to me. I've been growing up alongside movies my entire life. I just have. How could I grow up in this day and age without being big and deep into movie culture? I always sat in front of the TV, watching films of all kinds, particularly action films like Transformers.
3.) My thoughts on modern culture are...less than positive. Media has lost a lot of it's charm in the recent years, feeling less and less about art and increasingly more about simple profits and the numbers that things can make. Celebrities feel fake and plastic these days, and the entertainment industry as a whole feels....fake. Like there's always someone pulling the strings, trying to manipulate us.
4.) I believe teenagers in media are typically portrayed as people who are at their most confusing point in life. Essentially, teens are the most common demographic for media these days and are more commonly portrayed in fiction than any other group. Teenagers are at a stage in their lives when interests differ the most between them, so it makes sense that they are so often a targeted audience.
