More 10 Keywords...

(1) ABC1 scale: This is a system of social classification, based on a independants job. This is really useful to my independant study because i will be able to talk about some of the links to my target audience. So for example if i had to say what the target audience are for my study i would probably say Asians who are middle class and then go into depth saying if they are C1 or C2? and so on

(2) Action code: This means when something is seen to be in a dramatic structure and the outcome result of it is violence, it grabs the readers attention immediately. This is really useful for my study because we ofen see this happening to Aishwarya by Deepak, which makes the audience have a effect and they view Aishwarya to be the main pratagonist.

(3) Active Audience Theory: This means when the audience to act as active participants to what they see and this has an influence/effect on them. This can be used in my study because when Aishwarya is being abused by Deepak it in a way involves the audience in as it is seen to be a real issue and is something in common.

(4) Actuality: Something that is filmed or even reported on real events. This can be easily related to my study as 'Provoked' is based on a real life story, of Kiranjeet Ahluwalia that had got abused by her husband. It shows the outer/real world we live in.

(5) Analogue: This is the way something is recored if it is seen as visual or sound images, it anchors the shape of something. This is seen to be quiet useful to my text as we see various shots like this e.g Aishwarya getting abused.

(6) Antagonist: The hero and Villian seen together but in a binary opposition. We see this is 'Provked' the jail seen when Aishwarya gets bullied by a white lady in the same jail as her.

(7) Anti-Climax- The narrative is seen to be slow and then reaches to the main bit of the narrative and then leaves the audience in disapointment/suspence? We can relate this back in the beginning of the text when Aishwarya burns her husband alive.

(8) Femininty: Feminsim fight for their rights and are against male dominance and the patriarchal society. The film of my text follows the theme of femininty.

(9) Racism: Making offensive comments against a religion/race. We see this in 'Provoked' when Aish goes to jail and is seen to be the only Asian.

(10) Flashbacks: When the narrative looks back at the stuff that has already happened. 'Provoked' takes us the audience back to remind us of what happened.
