~ 1st tutorial ~

Points -

- Change essay title from 'To what extent does visual culture affect the LGBT community?' to ' How does visual culture affect the LGBT community?'

- Avoid talking about TV & film too much and going off on a tangent
           - Use this research to relate back to how it also applies to advertising etc
           - Discuss editorial, advertising and branding 
           - Think about the branding of the programmes, channels, adverts etc.

- Collect visual examples for each point made and discuss

- Research into the current LGBT underground press & zine culture

- The production of underground press LGBT publications is a very counter cultural. Can the queer community only be accurately represented in a counter cultural sense? Does equality and realism only exist here?

- Look at the TV channel RU Pauls drag race is broadcast on and how it is branded towards a queer audience. Does it push 'queen' values, is the ideology of a 'queen' offensive to women?

- Watch and look into 'Queer eye for a straight guy'
