media language research

The term Intertextuality refers to the process of creating references to any kind of media text via another media text. In other words Intertextuality essentially means for a type of media (film,television,music etc) to pay homage to another media text

         Intertextuality is not always obvious. References can only be recognised if you know what  they are referring to. There are also cultural, social and linguistic limitations.

So, why do media texts use intertextuality?

Intertextuality is a literary device that creates an 'interrelationship between texts' and generates related understanding in separate works. These references are made to influence the reader and add layers of depth to a text, based on the readers' prior knowledge and understanding.

An example of this can be in Moana, when the character, Sven, from its film Frozen appeared for a brief, flashing moment or as you can see there is a picture of a monster on the wall of a hut that looks like the ice monster Elsa makes in Frozen



An example of a magazine the uses intertexuality is this:

In conclusion from learning about intertexuality i can implement it into my work by using a very well known photo that a lot the audience would know and remake it so not only do we have a common ground but it can show that if you know what your doing you can take any photo. an example of this can be these:
