Appying theories to my film

 
Applying  theories to my film.




The reason why I decided to look at theorist in relation to my media product was because I wanted to give a representation that the audience are able to read. Down below are the theories that my  film has are the  representation of the characters in the film as well as the camera angles I used to help convey these ideas.




Stereotypes :
O'Sullivan et al (1998) -stereotypes is a label that involves a process of categorisation and evaluation- stereotypes are a shorthand to narratives because of its simple representation. this is apparent due to the fact that the actors in the film are  the stereotypes of society representation of young people, they see them as negative and rebellious therefore I took the change to do this as show them the outlook of that most of the teenagers are seen as wild and out of control. this the links to Lipmann theory (1956) came up with the word stereotypes and that is was not meant to be negative but a shortcut to understanding or an ordering process.

Laura Mulvey (1975) argues that the dominate point of view is masculine and that the female body is objectified by the camera lens. this links to Berger's theory 'Ways of seeing' as he believe that men act and women appear; meaning that in the film Emily is seen with red lip stick that suggests her sexual nature as well as her dancing in front of the camera in a series of close ups, extreme closes up and long angle shots o her be objectified by the camre lens as she is wanting to appear for the male spectator in the film.
