Gender Representation through Camera Shots and Mise en Scene

How the Roles of Different Genders are Represented in the Media via the use of Camera Shots and Mise en Scene

 After watcing the new clip, in groups, we discussed some of the ways in which camera shots and mise en scene are used to portray gender:

 We then had to use these mind maps to devise a quick passage explaining some of these ideas:

 "Throughout the clip, the majority of the female characters are shown as minor characters as opposed to the more dominant males. The use of high angle shots is used regularly to this effect, highlighting the highly emotional and unreliable state of the woman in the opening scene and, more notably, the victimisation of the woman in the barn. The only female that subverts this role is the blonde woman in the leather jacket.
 Her short, bleached hair and dark leather clothing, reminiscent of many popular and iconic male figures and stereotypes (action heroes/ bikers etc.), portrays the connotations of what the audience will now assume to be her 'masculine' personality and attitude of strength, arrogance (stubborn) and willpower.
 This is also greatly added to by her gestures and movements; every action is clear and purposeful, giving her a 'get the job done' attitude, often portrayed in conformative male characters. She is also shown in settings of masculine power: she is the one operating the digger, not her male companion of whom later becomes a victim and required her to become his saviour, she then conforms to the idea of a male hero, a 'knight in shining armour', as well as later wielding a gun along with a male protagonist, leaving another man unarmed in comparison."

 We swapped with someone in the group and then marked each others work.
