Call of Duty
1st Person & 3rd person options- the 1st person is preferred.
What causes us to engage with hurt? Power & gameplay.
Pyschoanalysis is the analysis of the options and controls that we choose in life.
Laura Mulvey
Visual pleasures - Narrative Cinema
Scopophilia
- Pleasure of looking at others bodies as object (Freud)
- Perversions and objects
Narcissistic identification
Mirror stage: Jacques Lacan
-A childs own body is less perfect than reflection e.g Radioactive Man/Comic Book Guy
Structures of looking
-Cinema thrives on this
Male is not to be looked at & represents power
Suture
-Spectators look through eyes of the actors in the film
-Suture can be broken to make viewer feel guilty
Spectators gaze- looking at one
Intradiagetic gaze- looking at others in scene
Extradiagetic gaze- looking outwards e.g TV newsreader/break 4th wall
Etant Donnes- Being Give. Are we being given the power of the gaze?
