TODOOROVS THEORY 

Todorov's believed in a 5 part structure to every film 

1) equilibrium - setting a key established characters everything is good 

2) Disruptions 

3) recognition 

4) repair 

5) new equilibrium 

(WORLDS END)

1) equilibrium - established key characters , key areas where he main characters grew and relentectly agree

2) disruption - there's a fight in the toilet and they see blue blood underlie something is wrong 

3) recognition - they go through the pubs and as they go through the pubs it becomes increasing intense between them and the aliens 

4) Repair - when garry is in the pub and tell the aliens to **** off and they all leave 

5) new equilibrium - psot apocalyptic and with no technology and they are telling the legend of garry king

analyse how mise-en-scence elements contributed to the construction of stereotypes in media product you have studied

dress the younger people re wearing all have hoods 

masculinity - fighting 

the action form the robots fills into there stereo type 

make up to the older guys makes them look all beaten up and sweaty 

one stereotype we see is the masculinity of males and how they like to not think and just fight. for example when the teenagers come into the toilets there natural response is to fight them. this actions conforms to the stereo type that all men like to fight however we garry run in the toilet and hoddie which subverts the stero type at the same time this scene all underlines levi statuses theory that it is always 2 sides and here we clearly see 2 sides fighting with no one taking the middle group

another stero type we see in this scene is through the dress of the youth , there costumes gives us the impression that they are into crom and look almost gangster like . this is shown though the use of every single one of them having a hoodie or a jumper with a hood on. This conforms to the stero type that young people are into crime and reinforces this view. this stereo type reinforces the theory of levi Strauss's theory  of good vs evil . 

another sterotype is the performance in the fight scence of the robots , this performance makes it very obvious  that they are robots in the way they move , this show this through the way they fighting as it was very much how you would expect a robot to fight, this conforms to the stero of robots being cold and taking orders however it can also subvert to stero type as they are seen as humans .
