Identity Markers In Film

Please note that majority of the clips would not be visible, it is not my fault it is because of a specific setting on youtube when you upload a video that the uploaders didn’t change.

 

The chosen film is Sinbad: legend of the seven seas

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRsdyOck9IY

This film is about a man named Sinbad that has been framed by the goddess Eris and now must retrieve it in order to save his long time friend. This film was released in early 2003 by DreamWorks.

Often in films, women have the role of supporting the male lead. This is not entirely false in this film. While the female lead, ie Marina, does support the male lead, ie Sinbad, Marina has a fair amount of moments where Sinbad is supporting her. They also have moments where they are on more of neutral ground where they help each other out, take this clip for example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqCraaIpUuA

It is a relatively calm scene where Sinbad and Marina are equal in the way. In terms of gender, they are the same.

Excuse the quality, clips that are not fan dubbed are hard to come by. If we look at this scene we can see woman with long being portrayed as evil and seductive. Men are being portrayed as being driven purely by their desires, such as money

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6RC2Ois5Kc

Men are being shown as stubborn in this scene, which is a fairly large stereotype. It makes men also seem like they should not show emotions and only care about their vehicles, in this case Sinbad’s boat.

Advert

I was unable to find the person who designed this advert however I did try to replicate it. I chose Savanna just because they have very dry humour. I like the colours as well, its very bright and happy. Sorta like how alcohol can make you feel.

This is the advert I chose to repliate

First I got all my images

The font I used

 

I then made it in photoshop

I used stuff that I have previously learnt to create it
