literacy blog#1

Daley's main argument to this piece is the general consumption of the word "media literacy". She explains that generally people leak it to reading and writing, however it has all aspects of media(film,Internet,book,radio,etc..). Text and pictures can both give equal amount of meanings therefore pictures and audio are just as important as print. We learned a lot about this is Media Literacy how it literacy goes so much further into detail than expected just like Daley says. When you watch a film you're suppose to be conscious of the color,sound,labels,picture,actors. I agree with her standpoint you can't just read something or look at something and say what it means to you, theres a deeper knowing than that. The examples she used in her writing were very helpful to comprehend her points. I hope in this class we disect this reading a bit further when it comes to media literacy and pull apart different versions of the media and know the similarites and differences.
