Holby City

Male Representation

The lighting is soft and gentle, both common conventions of women.
Immediately common conventions of males are challanged as the man is wearing a pink shirt, which is traditionally a womans colour.
 He says "your dumped, you were a huge mistake" and "I don't ever want to see you again" . Phrases typically associated with women breaking up with men. 
He seems very well groomed, even more so than the woman, giving his character more femenine asthetic qulities.
The other man fits in much more with the common stereo type of men. He is wearing masculine colours as is more pyscial, doing things like resorting to pysical aggresion.


Female Representation
The first woman, speaks much less than the man, turning the reperesentation that women speak more than men upside down.
The second woman is lying down, showing she has less status than the man.

Editing: The editing is linear and mid paced, showing it takes a neutral position between both genders.
