  1. AS Media: Camera shots, movement and key terminology We are learning to: be able to identify a range of camera shots, angles and movements using terminology.

  2. Can you define these terms? Halo effect Subjectivity Accessed voices Androcentrism Self-fulfilling prophesy Collocation Juxtaposition Representation Motif Expectation Extension 1:can you think of any examples of where these might be used in the media? Extension 2 :how do you think we might use these to analyse a media text?

  3. Can you define these terms? Collocation – pairs that are usually associate or put together (e.g. Mum and dad, Man and wife, Batman and Robin) Juxtaposition – positioning next to each other Representation – the subjective and intentional reconstruction of reality Motif – a recurring theme or idea in a work Expectation – how we believe or expect people to behave and act Halo effect – in an initial encounter we pick out 1 or 2 general characteristics of a person and let that form our general opinion/impression of them; e.g. a person who is well qualified and neatly dressed will perform well in their job Subjectivity – individual perspective, opinion, impression, interpretation etc Accessed voices – the range of voices and institutions that have access to channels of mass communication leading to a privilege of these voices in society. The view of the powerful and the rich becomes the status quo. Androcentrism – placing more importance in views, politics, society, media etc on men than on women. Self-fulfilling prophesy – when expectations of peoples’ behaviour helps to encourage that behaviour. E.g. labelling people as deviant may contribute to the development of deviant behaviour.

  4. Camerawork/Cinematography The 4 areas we are looking at are: • Shots • Angles • Framing • Movement You might use: PowerPoint, pictures, write a song/rap, produce a role play. How you present is up to you but remember the following: • Give examples • Use correct terminology • Explain the effect where you can • Email this to me when you’re done! You have 30 minutes. GO!

  5. Camerawork/Cinematography What is cinematography or camerawork? Cinematography is concerned with how the things in front of the camera are made to look. • What angle is chosen and why? • Does that angle create/add to the representation? • How is the camera moving? For what end? Your job is to work in pairs research and explain a different aspect of camerawork. How you present this to the class is up to you.

  6. Things to consider • What do you know now that you didn’t before? • To what extent does camerawork add to the enjoyment of a film? How and why? • To what extent do you think the cameraman/camerawork is responsible for creating representations? Over to you!
