Intertextuality Info
Lesson Objective:
K: The concept of intertextuality.

Intertextuality simply means creating one text in reference to another.
Intertextuality can also happen when the content of one media text makes reference to another.
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.
Intertextuality essentially means for a type of media (film,television,music etc) to pay respect to another media text.

This original picture of Marilyn Monroe (right side) was more extravagant and brighter with loads more man. However the left side which shows a photograph of Madonna imitating the exact picture that Monroe did. But this picture had less men and a quite dull filter on top of it.
This image shows Bruce Lee on the left side while Uma Thurman is in the exact same costume as his but is on the right. The original photograph produced by Bruce lee shows him wearing a yellow jumpsuit with a thick black line up going up by the side. Then the costume Uma Thurman is wearing looks identical but instead has a paler yellow and is just a top with some sort of trousers with it.
This Image shows a picture of an episode from "Family Guy: Star War". This is supposedly meant to imitate the actual picture of the most popular fight in Star Wars. However the difference between this and the original is that it's a cartoon for starters therefore it's completely unrealistic. As well as the background and the theme looks really fake.
