Action Plan. . .

1. I will need to watch the film at least twice in order to gain a better understanding of it, to help me answer my question, for example by watching it a second time i could maybe get new idea's for my study, which i might not have thought about while watching it the first time. Therefore it is crucial for me to watch the film again. I will be aiming to do this by: 25Th of October.
2. I will me aiming to broaden my understanding of a whole range of media issues related to my study. This would be helping me to achieve my assessment objective 3i as i will be showing application of ideas, debates and information relevant to my text. I will be attempting to reach this target by visiting the media guardian on a weekly basis and researching issues and debates which are linked to my study. I will be aiming to complete this by: 28Th of October.
3. My third target will be to research a few historical texts which i can compare my text with. For example In my study so far i have said how the roles of females have changed however i have not given examples of how they use to be before. Therefore I would need to do research on films that use to represent women as weak, emotional give them roles such as housewives. I will complete this task by: 31st of October.
4. My third target will be to do more research into my audience. I will need to research both the primary and secondary audience of my text and also research some audience theories, for example uses and gratification etc. This can also be linked to the self assessment of my blog, where it says i lacked information on audience. I will be aiming to complete this task by: 31st October.
   
5. My fifth aim will be to do more research on roles of women in film and also more research on different feminist theories. For example i have looked at Laura Maulvey, however i could also research Ann Oakley and her study of how women are represented etc. I have done some research on the roles of women and how they are represented in films, however in order to enhance my knowledge and gain a better understanding of representation i could do more book research etc I will complete this task by: 3rd of November.
   
6. I will need to cover Shep, which is a target i have set myself on my self assessment, therefore i would need to make references to historical texts, and the social, political and economic factors surrounding my text. I could do this by visiting the media guardian and also taking out books on women within film industry. I will be aiming to complete this by: November 3rd.
   
7. Research more no the institution of my text. This was a weakness which i talked about in my self assessment; while covering migrain i found that i hadn't wrote much about institution. Therefore my target will be to research the institution and also the film maker and the previous films that he has produced in order to give me a brief idea of whether he usually makes films with women being represented as powerful etc or whether he objectifies women in his other films. I could possible take out books from the library to help me. I will be completing this by: 31st October.
8. I also need to enhance my synoptic skills by doing more outside research, e.g. i could include some sociologists who talk about representation of women e.g. Ann Oakley etc and i could also do more migrain analysis of different scenes in my text using key concepts which we studied in module 2. I will be aiming to complete this by :26Th October.
9. Get more information on the other side of my argument, which will be that women are still objectified in a sense. I can do this by researching films that present women as superior but also as sexual objects e.g. catowomen, this is done through the way she is dressed. I can therefore research more on the representation of women in action films and in general. I will complete this task by: 28Th October.
10. Research into the values and ideologies of my text. I could write more on my blog about the ideologies and values behind my text and the reason produced and how it appeals and also about the stereotypes associated with my text. I will complete this task by: 26th Oct.
