Med 5 Cw Task 7
10 Keywords

* Male Gaze: Laura Mulvey, used this word to describe what she saw the male point of view adopted towards the Camera. This is very useful to me because throughout Provoked, we see alot of this.

* Zoom: When the camera lense takes a extreme close up of a object. This is useful to me because when Aishwarya shows her marks it is zoomed in so that the audience can identify with her.

* Realism: When a movie/television focus on a subject that is seen in the real world. This is handy for me because Provoked focuses on Abuse which is a current issue in today's world.

* Prejudice: Pre-judging of an issue or social group, in a negative way, or streotypical way. This is handy for me because alot of this is seen in Provked, they treat Aishwarya different due to her being the only Asian.

* Power: it's a type of control seen through economic, social, cultural and ideological dominance. This is useful for me because we see social power such as the Black Sisters.

* Edit: The way a text has been edited to see it's final result: Looking at Provoked, the edits are seen to be fast when Aishwarya gets abused. So that it can catch the audiences eyes.

* Fade: When a images fades or dissapeares often leaves a black screen. We see alot of fades when Aishwarya looks at her past or has flashbacks, lets the audience know that it's going in the past.

* Suspense: When a film creates tension for the audience: Provoked shows this, during the beginning of the film, when we see the cameara focusing on the fire, the audience are eager to know who is holding it.
