In preparation for the assessment

In preparation for the assessment we have identified 4 key areas we need to make notes on during the screening of the extract. these are:
-Mise-en-scene
-Sound
-Editing
-Camera

Within these categories, I have learnt that you should link it back to different theories, for example binary opposites and how semiotics are represented.

For example as a practice we analysed an extract from Prim-evil. 
The question how is gender represented in this extract?
Key aspects I linked back to were obvious binary opposites used and any subversion between the male and female characters..
An example of this is that in this extract the female character was more dominant compared to the male character. I noticed this through the costume and the actions the character was using.
This was also shown through with the different camera angles that were used. many close ups on the female character to show domination and control, and many shots were used to look down on the male to show less significance and weakness. This is a clear example of subverting.
