L3 – write strong P.E.E.

L4 – analyse P.E.E. with a focus of editing and understand a range of representations in gender

• Which is better and why?

‘At the beginning of the extract it shows a guy talking to a woman. The woman obviously has no money so cant buy the dress. The cinematography makes the shop assistant seem more powerful. Then the woman says ‘how much for the dress?’ and the shop assistant tells her, but in a harsh way and looks down on her which tells us he is more powerful.’

‘Gender is represented through the use of cinematography. The use of an high angle over-the-shoulder connotes weakness which illustrates the female character in a stereotypical way.’

P = Your point.E = The evidence.E = What effect does it have on the audience?

Write out this P.E.E. and underline in coloured pencil

What are the white words?

My writing focus is…

• Use P.E.E. structure – L3• Improve my use of terminology / evidence – L3• Improve my explanation – does the stereotype

conform or subvert? – L4• Use more analytical language – L4

Marking Criteria

TIn this sequence an eyeline

match of cuts from as close up of the male character’s eyes to a long shot of an attractive female is used.

This reinforces the stereotypical representationof a heterosexual masculine male as thissuggests he is attracted to the woman.

Explain

Editing is used to represent gender.

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.

masculinity & feminity, one of which is editing
