Discussion between past and current artists work, ‘Doll face’ and ‘Girl Chewing Gum’, when watching the video you the viewer would believe that the two videos are completely opposite, but under the surface the two videos are very similar portraying the truth in the Media. ‘Doll Face’ is a modern computer animation, but on the other hand ‘ Girl Chewing Gum’ is a screen shot from a gloomy day in Hackney with a voice over. But when looked at closer the two films have a lot in common how they both portray the media to be telling the truth, ‘Doll face’ is about how a women is determined to be equivalent to the women on TV and react the unreachable. The differences and more clear that the similarities ‘Girl Chewing Gum’ is in a typical street in Hackney filmed in 1976 with a director coming across telling people, cars the camera shot and objects what they should be doing but thought the video the viewers realise that is appears the director is lying and isn't actually at the film location. ‘Doll Face’ on the other hand is a computer animation creates in 2003, which is about a robot with a women's face trying to reach closer and closer to the TV as it moves closer away as if reaching for the unreachable, mimicking every flaw erased from the women in the TV.
