Terms you should use for your statement on representation




You have been studying a unit on collective identity (unlike many other students from other centres), so you should have a good idea of the sorts of analysis expected under the heading 'Representation'. Here are some terms you may find useful:

General Terms:
- traditional, contemporary
- dominant ideology
- mediation
- collective identity
- representation

- masculinity and femininity

You should also make some comments here about the ways in which you have represented key themes or issues (this is particularly relevant if subject matter includes things like domestic abuse, rape and other sensitive issues). Be clear about how you want your spectator to be positioned in relation to these issues - do you want the spectator to leave your film having specific views on these issues?
