4) I think my strong question was question 6 as i understood what it meant by the conventions and also how i can identify the conventions of a film poster.

5) I think my weaker question was question 9 as i didn't include things in my writing such as to who the advert might me directed at and also the stereotypical image.

6) Charities use pictures of children as charities usually use controversial or emotive images to promote their charity. Children are normally associated with innocence and how there vulnerable. This usually appeals to people's generosity and sympathy towards the child/children in the media product. Children also make people want to protect them as there still young and their brains are still developing so they need an adult to protect them, this might appeal to the target audience who have children themselves as they know how children are vulnerable and how they need someone to look after them. The stereotypical image of a child (innocent and vulnerable) in need may be used to hope that the target audience will recognise this stereotype and will compel them to give and donate money to the charity that's being shown in the media product. The image is also quickly recognisable to the target audience because it is associated with a particular place in the world and an issue in this case lack of clean water and lack of clean toilets.
