How would these representSuperior or inferior qualities?

MISE EN SCENE CINEMATOGRAPHY
EDITING SOUNDAGE1. Who is being represented in this clip?
2. Are they being represented as superior or inferior? (Support this answer with evidence from the next question)
3. Pick one point from each micro element to comment on how this social group is being represented.
EXT: How does this clip construct a stereotypical representation of this social group?

P.E.E.
• Now write a PEE for at least two points• From your notes
• Point – your comment about the area of representation e.g. Youth is represented through diegetic sound.• Evidence – your micro element that tells us this e.g. The dialogue is colloquial.• Explain – link the two e.g. This conforms to a stereotypical view of young
teenagers, that they are rebellious in speaking their own language.

Weak Responses
Described the action rather than analysedFocused primarily on one area and neglect othersStray from the relevant question- discuss gender/social class etcWere concerned with TV Drama as genre rather than focus onrepresentationUse terminology rarely or inaccuratelyWrite a short response, intro and conclusion included
Strong Responses
Use note taking effectively and were well practiced in working under timed conditions.Understood the constructed nature of representation and were able to explore this through all four micro elementsUsed media terminology frequently. Selected the most relevant examples form the extract and analysed how the technical aspects constructed age.Could see the range of representations rather than ‘old’ and ‘young’Considered whether these representation were conformed to or subverted stereotypes

EditingWeakest area of analysis. Some candidates making no reference at all.
Stronger responses discussed the use 180-degree rule and continuity editing.
These candidates also referred to eyeline matches, shot reverse shot, simultaneous action and use of ellipsis.
Also some discussed the pace of editing to represent age
SoundWas tackled well by some but too much focus on dialogue.
Clear distinction between diegetic and non-diegetic sound by some candidates.
Need to address use of music in more detail-tempo, pace, sound bridges and link specifically to representation.
Mise-en-sceneOften very well discussed but at times too much focus on this area. Some entirely focused on mise-en-scene
Concentration on clothing and props but little exploration of lighting.
Must link to how it constructs representation.
CinematographyWell handled by most with the most confident use of terminology in this area.
Problems for some in just identifying camera shots/angle/position and not linking this to the construction of representation.
