                                            Him & Her














In the first episode of Him & Her the setting throughout is a apartment, this apartment is messy, dark and comfy this fits the characters as firstly they are both early 20s couple therefore this age demographic wouldn't have a smart apartment, they are also unemployed so they are constantly lazing in bed, the bed is the main focal point of the bedroom and perhaps the whole apartment this draws our attention to the bed which is always messy and never made. The use of no other setting creates this safe space in the apartment and gives us an idea of what couples are like behind doors.

    Lucy, what you have written is great and clearly you 'get' the role of setting in constructing and in this case deconstructing a text.

The koleshov effect theory is where you use the same image but change what the person s looking at this is suppose to trick the reader into thinking they are showing different emotion. When showing strangers in Wymondham Town Centre this video we got mixed emotions towards it, some did not get the theory and worked out it was the same image therefor making it seem that the theory is not true on everyone, other members of the public saw the same emption for very clip, such as like anger, and lastly no one guessed the true emotions they are suppose to being portrayed instead they only figured out 2 of the 3. all in all this shows that this theory is not as strong as first believed perhaps suggesting either the image of the person was not neutral enough or the theory only works with certain people. I was not expecting this feedback from the audience, I felt that they would of understood the concept to the extent of seeing the different emotions, this did not happen which surprised me...
