This shot is a medium close up of The Master’s face. This immediately tells the audience that he has a lot of authority. He is given a lot of space on the screen compared to Martha. In the background we can see Martha with the guards which shows the audience how females are represented as she is so small compared to The Master. This is a stereotypical representation women as it shows her being less relevant and similar to a prisoner.

This shot is a low angle. The angle shows how The Master is placed at the top of the screen, looking down at Martha, which shows how he is above her in the hierarchy and how she is at the bottom, meaning she lacks his respect. Although the woman in the red dress is standing next to him, she is no more than an object to him as she has no expression and she does not say anything.

This shot is taken from a high angle as the camera is facing down on her. It makes the audience look down on her, this also makes them feel sorry for her as she seems powerless against him and that she is almost his slave. She is looking up at The Master which may make him seem more powerful and in control as she kneeling down to him as though he is a god like figure.

This mid shot is taken at eye level, which shows that he is respected more as he is a man, and although he has also been captured, he isn’t being degraded like Martha who is usually filmed from a low high angle to make the audience look down on her. This shows the difference in how males and females are represented as they are both on the same level, yet he is shown at eye level.

Through editing, we are able to know when the flash back happens as the screen fades to white, this helps the audience become aware of the time change and helps them to differentiate between what is current and what is in the past.

The flash back scenes have also been filtered to look different so that the audience know what is current and what is from the past, the use of the filter also gives the clips a more vintage look to help reinforce the fact that clips are form the past

CGI has been used to show the transformation of the doctor, the audience see a bright blue light which implies something is happening, it also shows the representation of males as he was trapped behind bars and with the help of Martha he is able to become him self again yet the doctor is shown as powerful and the blue light gives him an angelic effect.

This shot of Martha is taken at a high angle which shows how she has progressed through the clip as before she was always shown in a low angle to make the audience look down on her, however, now the high angle shows how she is victorious and how she was able to out smart The Master. Which changes the stereotypical view of women the audience were shown at the start.

This mid long shot shows The Master is shown to be smaller to signify him losing his power, the camera has also been angled to look down on him to emphasise him losing his power as the audience is shown to be looking down on him.

In this medium long shot women are again represented regressively as we see one man holding a gun towards the two women showing them as vulnerable. However the stereotypical representation of men is being subverted to as one man holds the gun up to another man implying he is as vulnerable as the women.

This long shot shows the setting as well as the different statuses that different genders have. Most of the men are shown ‘upstairs’ looking down on the women suggesting that women have a lower status giving them a regressive representation. Due to the way the long shot represents the genders we can see a negative representation of gender

This long shot shows The Master losing his power as he is positioned at the bottom of the screen and the doctor is rising above him gaining his power back. The blue light surrounding him also helps to reinforce the audience that he is now more powerful than him
