Question 2

Soundtrack:

Non diegetic sound

At what point was there upbeat music

Type of dramatic music

Editing:

Explain the difference between the two time periods in the flashback

Editing is VFX

Mise-en-scene:

What technology is on display?

Camera Work:

High angle shots not talked about

Correct terminology

Question 3

Far to general to be any good – and wrong too

Spelling of ‘woman’

‘Martha is an anti-stereotype, as she…’

In what way do Martha’s clothes contrast her as masculinized? Her attitude/speech? In what way is the woman in red a stereotype?

Mixed Race not coloured

In media texts they are often given less power

Gender- the stereotype of the ‘doll-like’ women in red?

The staffs are silent, anonymous, brutal, and ruthless

Mistaken domestic staff is soldiers with weapons not the maids and cooks on the edge of the scenery.

Revise editing
