1. How is the representation made to seem 'true', 'commonsense' or 'natural'?   2. What is foregrounded and what is backgrounded? Are there any notable absences?   3. Whose representation is it? Whose interests does it reflect? How do you know?   4. At whom is this representation targeted? How do you know?   5. What does the representation mean to you?   6. With what alternative representations could it be compared? How does it differ?   7. Why is the concept of representation problematic?


1. In the Sean Paul video all women in the video are dressed in some sort of bikini or something revealing their breasts/bum. It seems natural for them to be dressed in such revealing and appealing clothing. There are no women in the video that aren't good looking and that aren't dressed in a seductive manor , this makes it seem normal for women to be dressed sexually. 


2. In the foreground for most of kanye west's goldigger is a women who's dancing away seductivly , there are some high angle shots of her which reveal her body , the main focus of the video is women just dancing in not much clothing , the notable absences are clothing and men. Typically in hip hop videos men are seen with there gangs etc. Not in this.


3. This shows that Sean paul and Kanye are both intrested in hot women sexually , i know this because the majority of the videos is focused on women who arn't clothed fully and dancing sexually.
