Film Stills
I chose the title of my film stills to be: A Woman in a Man's World. In my five film stills, it shows me fitting into what people call a man's world, and succeeding.
In the first image, it has me just looking off into the distance. This shows me looking into what exactly a man's world is like. I chose to have sunglasses on for the effect of how a woman is always hiding her feelings and being passive. I am also sitting in a chair in an athletic stadium, which is connect to a man's love for sports.
In the second image, it shows my hand up to a man's hand. This shows how we "measure up to one another." In most societies men are ranked higher than women. I chose to do a measurement of hands because I felt that was a common thing to measure between men and women. In most instances, a man's hand will be larger than a woman's just because of genetic makeup differences.
In the third image, it shows me playing poker with a table full of guys. We are all intensely playing the game. I am also the only female sitting at the poker table, being "one of the guys." Also if you look closely, I have the most poker chips of anyone sitting at the table. This shows how woman can still beat a man, in a male driven game. (and I was actually winning, this wasn't too staged!)
In the fourth image, I am dressed in a suit cooking over a stove. I chose to be wearing a suit because this shows how many women come directly home from work and start dinner for her family. Most women work full time, and by that I mean, they work 8am-5pm in their career, and then work 5pm-8am taking care of their family. This limits the amount of "me time" for the woman.
In the fifth and final image, it shows me hunched over my car. Their are jumper cables under the hood of the car, with me beginning to jump my car, while being feminine and putting on lip gloss. I am dressed nicely, as if I was going out with my friends to have a nice night on the town. This image shows that a woman can do exactly what a man can do, while she is still being feminine!
