- contexts- about KE and LP, social, political...
- intertextuality- a reference of something else in a text,
- theories to include- Gilroy, Butler, Neale, Barthes, Hall, Hesmondhalgh
TV Drama mid term comments
Q3: not the right theory for the question with intertextuality
Didn't quite understand the question and how it appeals to the audience.
Q4: I needed to do the same to Killing Eve
-------------------------------
Q3 TARGETS: 1 and 5
1- cover all areas of LIAR
5- Answer the question
intertextuality- refer media product eiffel tower can be one since its iconic.
-heist and ocean 11 (LP)
plan:
LIAR/CT
Intro- agree/ disagree
P1- bullet point 1 (context, produced and consumed)
KE - production, consumption and theory
LP - production and consumption
P2- bullet point 2 ( intertextuality) setting and imagery
KE - intertextual example (L from liar) show how context impacted it, link audience, theory
LP - intertextuality example how context impacted it audience and theory
P3- bullet point 3 (Intertextuality) genre- codes and conventions
KE - intertextual to MI5, context every country has a secret service in the government, theory, (rep or industy LIAR)
LP - intertextual ref: Ocean 11 and the book, link to context, theory
P4- representation
KE- turned it on their head with James bond stereo with the females being strong
LP- small budget so the representations are traditional for the genre
decent conclusion
my version
intro
P1 context produce and consume
ke- female team, bbc america, bbc known for strong characters, equality, Star names Sandra Oh internationally known and big in america, theory- hesmondhalgh,
lp- stream, lockdown, small budget, Netflix made it, need for more production, wider tastes catered for during lockdown. reduce risk wiht popular genre and codes and convention
P2 intertextuality media language and rep (liar)
Ke- intertextual images England, Tsukany with vine yard, context impact, audicne theory. repetition of codes and conventions, not just intertextual since its the representations that appeal to the audience more than intertextuality with the strong character
LP- eiffel tower, museum/ paintings, context impact, audience and theory.
KE- bus, weather, Uk- refers to the UK audience more than international since we don't see the iconic places a lot. Contexts of cultural experiences of the UK, realistic representations of the UK so appeals to both audiences through intertextual iconic images, Bathes appeals with signs and meaning and ideologies- myths about the UK.
LP- Louve and effeil tower- iconic images appeal to the international audience, representations of the ballinues/ slums appeal to a national audience because over 80% of the population live outside of the centre. Barthes with signs, hall representation- they included the slums with the gangs and stereotypes.
P3 intertextuality genre
ke- MI5 apply to audience everyone knows of the Secret services theory Liar

Question 4 Feedback
Do Now:
- Butler point1- performance of gender roles
- Butler point2- repetition so that it becomes natural and gender trouble
- Gilroy point1- post colonising and failure to mourn and black Atlantic which results in criminalisation of immigrants
- Gilroy point2- white western superiority
- limitation each- neither are specific to LFTVDs, focuses only on those areas no other ones
Plan/ structure: for Q4
intro- detail theory and ed3 elements that make up the theory
element1 of theory
apply to LP
apply to KE
element2 of theory
apply to LP
apply to KE
element3 of theory
apply to LP
apply to KE
conclusion- evaluate how its limited and then if it works in analysing LFTVD.
Butler:
- Gender is created in how we preform our roles. Through repetition is naturalised gender roles
- Gender performativity- performance of the gender character/ person create stereotypes of gender roles of gender focues on masculinity and feminity.
- Gender trouble- by creating binary norms of heteronormativity it creates an exclusion for those who do not fit into the binary norms. Through repetition it naturalises gender roles. Butler aims to remove stereotypical of fixed instead on gender and sexuality.
Introduction:
Butlers theory on Gender performativity talks about how through the repetition of gender performance of our gender roles become naturalised within society. This can create gender trouble since the normal is heteronormativity and this excludes anyone who doesn't fit in the binary norms. Though Butler aims to remove stereotypical fixed gender roles on gender and sexuality.
LP gender trouble in the pool scene as a female is sexualised and the male is seen to be transfixed by her sexuality. reinforces heteronormanity doesn't allow variation in sexualtiy/ gender.
KE goes against gender trouble and the idea of binary norms in sexuality and gender roles through Villanelle- bedroom scene, Eve- role as working wife, focuses on danger in her job.

BP3- judgement- conclusion
Q3:might mention ownership influences economic,
- BBC challenge to newspaper as this is funded by the license fee so takes online trafic from the newspaper sites.

Feedback:
Q3: Targets:
A little more discussion on theory, link to the question and focus on the audience beliefs. Cover all areas of LIAR. Link audience vlaues and attitudes back to the codes and conventions, link context back tot he codes and conventions and beliefs to the audience.
Potential theories:
- Neale genre theory
- Gilroy LP reflecting historical vp criminalising immigrants
- Butler KE preformance of gender roles with Eve, Villanelle, Niko
- Bell Hooks KE and Villanelle and Eve are intersectional
- Van Zoonen LP Assasnes wife/ Juliet, performance of gender roles and objectification

1- Into- Yes C&C differences reflect audiences
2- Context of production and consumption of KE
Context of production and consumption of LP
3- Context influence in C&C KE
4- Context influence in C&C LP (3&4 Repeated)
5- Conclusion- Judgment- differences in C&C both KE and LP
- Theory, context, liar have to cover and use the bullet points.
The differences in the codes and conventions of LFTVD do reflect the attitudes and beliefs of the audiences that consumes them. Which can be seen in both Killing Eve and Lupin first episodes.
Context of production and consumption: Just KE but do for LP as well
- made by an all female production team- post me too movement (historical context, reflect societal values at the via me too- social context- audience attitudes and beliefs.
- BBC America- shown in America then move to BBC 3 then Netflix
- Big budget- Sandra Oh, appeal to US audience a they were primary audience.
Consumption- BBC America- paid for Tv. BBC3- free license fee. Netflix- subscription. Gradually moved to binge watching as available for all episodes to watch.
Context influence in C&C in Killing Eve:
-Russian Villain
-MI5 Spy genre- cold war, popular genre over time, production for BBC America and American audience has meant that the CC have followed traditional spy genre so it is recognised worldwide. Audience expectations for Spy genre is followed, with Russian villain. Beliefs that the country is vulnerable.
Neale popular genres are repeated to engage audiences, recognisable...
-female protagonist- me too movement cahnegd the codes and conventions of the spy genre protagonist which shows independance.
Bell Hooks, against patriarchy.
Include LIAR
