Primeval Analysis Unfinished

While watching this clip straight away I could see that gender was representated by a number of things shown in the mise en scene. characters personality where shown by their costumes and the role they played. the form of the narrative was a basic usual structure, like any story or narrative in a film, but the genre could be guess by the action codes released. it was based on adventures theme, a sort detective team. however the director used both active and passive to create meaning throughly. camera shots made audience recognise who is the the main prespective leader or protagonist in by the end the clip, through verbal and non verbal languages. these made the film more interesting as story unfolded. gender representationw as quite manupilated and it seemed liek they played on how gender is precieved by the audience first they changed th ewhoel convention of or stereotypical view of gender roles, eg the women in the team far more sufisticated and mopre manly because the sort job she carried out her costume, her attitude, the sort of props she used, she seemed to use her mind rather than panic and helped the hero being saved, which normally, it shown that the protagonist or hero saving the girl form the trouble. the hero in the other hand semed more casual and calm, although the beginning outbreak of the danger or action code the film, it may have seemed that he didnt have the characteristic of a hero but as he brought attention fo the tiger towards him to save the girl it seemed obvious that he isn't coward but brave hero. in the second half the other women was repersented as the typical women with attractive dressing sense manipulative, blackmailing but at the end very weak physically. her short dress, high heels and and red lipstick gave audience a very steroitypical image of this women unlike how th efirst women with short hair, leather jacket almost army kind look with rough style gave revolutionary image of a women. now all this was given by th euse of lights, camera shots, visual aspect, aural aspects of the film. the use of shots made audience define the main protagonist, while lighting helped us to iunderstand the semiotic aspects. the visual aspect being shown both passively through the roles each characters protrayed. the Aural language was interesting
