Each text discusses parody and pastiche in similar ways but to an extent, there are some theories which are different from Jameson and Hutcheon. Hutcheon talks more about post-modernism and how it links to parodies whereas Jameson discusses how parody replaces pastiche, giving things less of a meaning. 'The disappearance of the individual subject, along with its formal consequence, the increasingly unavailability of the personal style...what may be called pastiche'. Whereas Hutcheon is more open minded about the matter; 'post modernisms main interest might seem to be in the processes of its own production...but I want to argue that it is precisely parody'.
Example of a pastiche from the session, this design copies an original design which supports Jamesons theory:
An example of a parody that I found myself. The image relates to makeup, however the packaging, layout and design elements of it relates to Graphic Design. The image displays two different eyeshadow palettes. However, the top one is the original which is around £40, the bottom one is a dupe from this eyeshadow palette which is a lot cheaper (around £10).
