Who/What is being represented in the opening?
The first thing being represented is Scottish myths and a typical Scottish family who own a kingdom. With a young girl who does not want to be conformed to her families traditions.
How is this being represented?
The Scottish myths are being represented by the strong Scottish accent with the shots of the stones and mystical mountains, with the blue mist s this all adds to the mystery. The typical Scottish family is being represented by them all having ginger hair sitting round a large wooden table eating meat, we can tell they are Scottish not just buy their actions but the shots of the woodlands and lakes. The presentation of the young girl who does not want to inform to her families traditions is being presented by her slumping in the chair talking about wanting freedom
Is there evidence of Dyer or Barthes’ theories in this opening? Justify, using detailed examples.
There are hints of Barths theory in 'Brave' for example the magical blue mist in Scotland- Scotland is stereotypical very nitty gritty so for the blue mist makes Scotland see magical full of wonder which is far from the truth, although beautiful there is no magic-this makes 'Brave' seem fluffy and magical.
