MEST4 Research

Within the last 2 weeks:
Being unsure about a single topic i researched into each four ideas (the ideas have already been posted) by :
1.Visiting a Conference for a Charity (at UCL)- Were i watched ads and realised the problems to create a successful charity.
LP - Most likely be a charity Ad
2.Asking around about peoples opinions on the representations of muslim women and Articles to see if it is a worthy topic to investigate. One of the articles: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1255104/Muslim-women-barred-flight-refusing-naked-body-scan.html " 15,000 people have already passed through the scanners, with the pair the first passengers to refuse a scan."
LP - Ad Campaign to address stereotypes?
3.I have researched about the EDL by visiting official website http://www.englishdefenceleague.org/ and also some fan pages on facebook. I noticed how alot of the Youth in particular are unaware of their briefs and how their website is very subjective.
LP - Really unsure about the LP
4. I have also been reading alot of Magazines including Heat, Sugar, TeenVogue, Cosmogirl (In particular an Article on Heidi Montag and how she had several operations at once in order to look perfect) and watching some shows to notice the patterns on womens obsession of their appearance and this huge pressure to look perfect. Some issues include, crazy diets, plastic surgery and eating disorders. I can research on how women teen magazines may differ to older women magazines and if the same ideology comes across.
LP - Ad campaign to address the dangers of trying to look 'perfect' or the first few minutes for a documentary on a males perspective on this issue.

Still being very unsure, i will continue to research on each topic and discuss it with my partner/peers to come to a conclusion on what exactly i want to do.
