What is the role of pin-up girls in advertising and how has the pin-up girl style changed over the decades?
Do you have a hypothesis?
I think that pin-up girls role in advertising is simply to allure men into buying the products they are advertising, and to make adverts appear less gloomy, creating a lighter, happier atmosphere. I also think that pin-up girls have changed massively from their origin in the 1890's, as nowadays the people adorned over the covers of magazines and on billboards are celebrities and models rather than pin-up girls.
What are the contexts of your research interests?
What are the contexts of your research interests?
30's and 40's America for the traditional pin-up girls when they were at their most popular, and also modern day, 2015, to compare what the modern day version of the pin-up girl is compared to the traditional version. Also magazines and calendars from these era's as well as this is hopefully what I will be producing.
Sources of primary/secondary research?

Primary source
Researching covers of existing magazines from present day, or calendars
How will your practical work relate to your written work?
It will relate to it through producing outcomes that pin-up girls would be produced on, such as magazine covers, match box cards, calendars etc. I will show how different the modern day pin up girl is by putting her in a situation where the traditional pin-up girl would be, highlighting th differences between them.
Provide a proposed timeline for your work for completion (consider carefully whether you will need access to college)
I will research into existing products more thoroughly using my essay as a guideline before the Easter holidays, refining what I actually want to produce, then produce my outcome over the Easter holidays, taking out or booking any college equipment or facilities that I need beforehand.
