Representation
The document discusses media representation and how four main female characters are represented in a film. It explains that media representation focuses audience attention on particular aspects of characters to form assumptions. It then discusses how the four characters - Claire, Helen, Isabel, and Rachel - are represented through their costumes, personalities, and roles in ways that both conform to and counter typical stereotypes of cancer patients, sisters, and black teenage girls. The goal is to portray the characters multidimensionally rather than through simplistic stereotypes.

This document discusses representation in media through analyzing the representation of characters in a film. It summarizes the representation of the main protagonist Claire Williams, who is portrayed as a cancer patient through her pale appearance and dull clothing.

Representation
Claire Williams is the main protagonist who is a cancer patient in the last stages of her life. She wears dull clothing to represent her physical and emotional exhaustion. Claire's mother Helen tries to support her and remains optimistic, wearing brightly colored clothes. Claire's best friend Isabel is also a countertype as she is extroverted and lively despite being a black female character. Another friend Rachel is typically presented positively as a caring person, unlike stereotypical portrayals of black teenage girls, as she wears black but is calm and compassionate.
Q2 ppp
The document analyzes how different social groups are represented in the opening of the film "The Hellion". It examines the portrayal of 6 characters: Lucy Gates is presented as a stereotypical nerd based on her shy demeanor and clothing; Will Turner as a jock through his loud personality and baseball jacket; Josh Rivers as popular through his fashionable clothes and influence over others; Paul Dean as normal but seeming nervous; Aria Fitz as gothic due to her dark clothes and interest in the Ouija board; and Lilly Rivers as an innocent young girl shown through her childlike pajamas and teddy bear.
Girls aloud
1) The music video portrays five girls who have been in relationships with the same man, represented as weaker than the women. Scenes show the women applying makeup and crying on the man's shoulder, playing into stereotypes.
2) As one girl burns photos of them together and ignores his calls, the video shows the relationships have broken down. Shots frame the women as having authority over the man.
3) Icons like flowers, photographs, and a cell phone reference relationships and communicate the narrative of nostalgia for past relationships and moving on from the man.
Representation
This document discusses representation in media and how stereotypes are commonly used. It provides examples of stereotypes portrayed in the TV show "Glee" and the film "Legally Blonde". Specifically, it notes how "Glee" enhances gay stereotypes through its portrayal of the character Kurt. While "Legally Blonde" initially presents blonde female stereotypes, it subverts them by showing Elle is clever enough to get into Harvard Law School and win a case. The document also discusses how the film "Fight Club" inspired the representation of the protagonist in the author's own film through its portrayal of the narrator as dull and lifeless compared to the more interesting character of Tyler Durden.
Digipak analysis
The document analyzes album artwork for Janet Jackson's "Rhythm Nations 1814" and Alessia Cara's "Know It All". For Janet Jackson, the black attire and posture suggest empowerment and a message. The light on her face represents dominance and mystery while also showing her goodness. The date "1814" refers to a historical battle involving African American troops, relating to social justice. For Alessia Cara, the pale blue background aims for a calm, non-sexualized sound. Her name is handwritten to seem casual while the bold album title questions what is known and attracts older audiences.

This document discusses representations in media and how they relate to the characters in the production "The Darkness". It analyzes how the protagonist Rachel shares similarities with the character Elena Gilbert from "The Vampire Diaries" in that they are both innocent yet mysterious university students. It also examines how the antagonist Lucy shares traits with the characters Esther from "Orphan" and Freddy Krueger from "A Nightmare on Elm Street" in that all three manipulate their victims and appear in their dreams, though Lucy and Esther also have a disability that makes them appear younger than they are. These comparisons are made to show how the characters in "The Darkness" fit known representations and archetypes.

Question 2
The media product represents social groups in unconventional ways. A young female character who is usually portrayed as innocent is instead depicted as sinister and threatening. An adult male protagonist in his 40s is shown as vulnerable rather than powerful, as he does not notice the antagonist walking behind him and lacks power. However, he is also brave in investigating strange sounds without hesitation, retaining some aspects of traditional masculinity through his courage.

Raise Your Voice illustrates the pressures of being a teenager and having to make a stand on political issues. The film follows Jane and Molly, two friends with different personalities who must decide whether to participate in a protest for students' rights to education. While trying to juxtapose serious political themes with interpersonal drama, the film ultimately fails to connect these storylines or provide enough context to fully understand the plot. It leaves many questions unanswered. The inexperienced actors also did not fully embody their characters. However, the film highlights the common experience of arguing with a friend and feeling powerless, and adds a political element that makes it more current. Despite flaws, it could stand out at film festivals as a new
Evaluation activity, q2
The document compares one of the characters in the student's media product to the character of Samara from the film "The Ring". Both characters are young females with dark hair who play important starring roles. Their costumes and appearances are plain and ordinary to not distract from the plot. However, one key difference is the length of their hair, with Samara's being much longer to appear more mysterious. While their looks and traits are similar, their storylines are completely different. Both films subvert stereotypes by portraying young girls in sinister roles rather than the stereotypical innocent depictions.
Question 2
The document discusses how the media product represents social groups in terms of gender and age.
For gender, the male character is portrayed as powerful and dominant while the female character is portrayed as weak, vulnerable, and scared. The female is shown running away from the male character, establishing his dominance.
For age, the main female character is portrayed as a timid youth through her actions like playing hopscotch, while the male character's clothing stereotypically represents young males. The target audience of young females was chosen based on feedback that this group prefers thriller movies more than young males. In 3 sentences or less, the document discusses representations of gender and age stereotypes in the media product.
Question 2
The document discusses how the media product represents social groups through its characters. It represents:
- Gender: The male is powerful/dominant while the female is vulnerable/distressed.
- Age: The youth are shown as lazy/rude while the old are wise/lonely.
The thriller opening shows the female character as stereotypically vulnerable by having her run away frightened from the male. Her emotions also align with stereotypes. The youthfulness of both characters is represented by their clothing and activities like playing. The storyline was chosen to raise awareness of serious crimes like kidnapping that disproportionately impact certain social groups.
Social groups
The document discusses representations of different social groups in the opening of a horror film called "Hallowed Ground." It represents women, men, and religious people. For women, it subverts the typical portrayal by showing a woman overpowering and killing a man, demonstrating her power. For religious people, it initially shows a priest helping others in need but then depicts how they often become victims in horror films. For men, it breaks from conventions by depicting the man as weak and vulnerable, with a woman killing him to flip typical gender stereotypes.
Question 2
This document discusses the representation of social groups in the film "Sole Retribution". It describes the victim, Erin Wolfe, as a young female character dressed in normal clothing to make the attack seem more plausible. It also describes the villain as Tom, dressed in a black hoodie to conceal his identity and seem more dangerous, taking inspiration from intimidating characters in other thriller films. The document analyzes how the characters were designed to represent certain social groups and advance the plot of the thriller.
Unit 1 a04 huuhehdjksd
The document summarizes the characters in the film "The Descent":
Juno is the antagonist who abuses her power as the group's leader by having an affair with Sarah's husband and leading the group astray in the cave.
Rebecca is the oldest and tries to protect the group.
Sarah is the victim, as her husband and daughter died in an accident, and she seeks support from the group.
The document then analyzes screenshots from the film, showing Juno seducing Sarah's husband to demonstrate her controlling nature, and a blood-covered Sarah fighting back after being pushed to the brink by her losses and Juno's betrayal.
Evaluation question 2
The document summarizes how a film represents teenagers as a social group through its characters, costumes, camera angles, lighting, and sound. Five teenagers with different personalities were chosen to portray diversity within the group. Costumes were kept simple to seem realistic, with some like a rebel character wearing a denim jacket. Camera angles like high shots make the characters seem vulnerable. Lighting gets darker during a tense Ouija board scene. Eerie music builds tension but no sounds define individual characters to preserve the horror element.
Evaluation question 2
This document discusses how a media product represents various social groups through its characters. It analyzes the representation of social class, age, gender, and ethnicity in the opening of the media product. For social class, the characters both reinforce and challenge stereotypes of the upper and lower classes. For age, the younger character owning the mansion challenges stereotypes. For gender, only including male characters upholds stereotypes. For ethnicity, only including white characters reinforces stereotypes about white criminals being of higher status than non-white criminals. In conclusion, the representations both use and challenge stereotypes, but could improve representation of other groups going forward.
Representation into male and females in thriller films
This document discusses gender stereotypes and representations of males and females in thriller media. For males, common stereotypes include being heroic, tough, strong-minded, and intelligent. Males are often portrayed as physically strong lone heroes who protect women and save the world. For females, stereotypes depend on their age, with younger women portrayed as more sexual but innocent, while older women are often mothers. Females are usually dependent on men and not protagonists, instead being given the male gaze. When females are protagonists, they are often unstoppable. Examples of both male and female representations in thrillers are provided.
Primary
The primary audience for the movie "The Descent" consists mainly of women due to the all-female cast. Goths and rockers may also be part of the primary audience as horror films often appeal to those interested in darker themes. The overall social grade of the audience would be E, as it mainly includes teenagers with disposable income who do not have jobs or pay for housing.
Year 12 Media Coursework Evaluation- Question 2
The document analyzes how different social groups are portrayed in a media product. It discusses the positive representation of young, cheerful cleaning women from a working class background. It also examines the portrayal of a stressed working class father struggling when his wife is absent, and the innocent stereotypical depiction of a young girl suffering from nightmares. The antagonist has no clear social class as a dark entity, though it only interacts with the oppressed girl and victims, similar to an antisocial character. All characters have stereotypical Welsh accents to make the average working class family more relatable and sympathetic.

Horror
The document summarizes and analyzes horror movie posters for three films:
The poster for The Woman in Black features a sinister image of children with their eyes cut out to create an unsettling atmosphere and represent the film's storyline. The Sinister poster depicts a child using blood to paint a demonic face on a wall, representing the film's plot. The Blair Witch Project poster uses a black and white photo of the woods with the Blair Witch symbol in red, and provides a factual text box about the story with a simple title display.
Mulvey lesson 8
This document discusses theories of how people look at and construct their identities from others, including Freud and Lacan's ideas of scopophilia and understanding oneself through mirrors. It then summarizes Laura Mulvey's 1975 feminist film theory about how mainstream cinema positions women as passive objects for the male gaze through identifying with the male protagonist and desiring the female love interest. Mulvey argued this limits women's roles to narrow and two-dimensional types like the Madonna and the whore. The document asks how looking is happening in the pictured scene and evaluates if narrow roles for women still exist in media today.
Representation
Claire Williams is the main protagonist who is a cancer patient in the last stages of her life, as represented through her dull clothing and pale, ghostly appearance. Her name implies inner hope despite her outward exhaustion. Claire's mother Helen Williams is her adoptive mother of a different race who maintains a quiet, submissive demeanor and wears brightly colored clothes to remain positive for her daughter. Isabel Thomas is Claire's best friend who sticks with her through her illness, and as a black female she subverts stereotypes by being more extroverted and lively than Claire, wearing bright blue clothes to represent her happy personality.

How does our media product represent a particular
This document analyzes how the media product represents social groups such as women and men. It argues that women are represented negatively as overly emotional and mentally unstable. The main character and her niece are shown to have mental health issues stemming from their childhood. Men are represented as cold, emotionless problem-solvers who see mentally ill women as routine cases. However, the document also notes that these representations were not intentional, as the goal was to portray a type of mental illness, not send messages about gender. Choosing a female lead helped use childish props and costumes to link to Alice in Wonderland.
Q 2
The document discusses how different social groups are represented in the media product. Males are shown as masculine and involved in crime through drug dealing, while females are portrayed as composed and carefree. Working class characters are depicted as popular yet lacking money. Middle class is represented as well-groomed and stable. Masculinity is shown both as rebellious criminals but also loving and creative. Femininity is depicted as sensible and talented rather than stereotypical portrayals. The media product aims to represent a multicultural society by including characters of different ethnicities who follow both criminal and educational paths.
QUESTION 2
Our media product represents various social groups in the following ways:
1) It features both male and female youth characters from a variety of ethnic backgrounds engaged in both criminal and educational activities, challenging stereotypes about gender, ethnicity, and social class.
2) Working class males are shown as drug dealers but also loving and creative, while working class females are hardworking and well-behaved. Middle class females are elegant but neglected.
3) Masculinity is represented both positively as creative and sensitive and negatively as rebellious criminals, while femininity is shown as intelligent and confident rather than the stereotypes often seen in youth films.

The document aims to create a realistic yet complex character representation for the actors.
Representation

Theories discussed include Laura Mulvey's concept of the "male gaze" in film, bell hooks' analysis of the objectification of black women in hip hop, John Berger's view that women are there for male objectification, and Stuart Hall's encoding/decoding theory of media representation. The document then gives examples of how different groups may be represented, such as the elderly as helpless or black people liking chicken. It analyzes the representation of the main character Eldon Livermore, a 30-year-old divorced black male teacher, noting both potential stereotypes and
Representation- Evaluation
This document discusses representation of age, gender, class, ethnicity and region in the horror film "The Book". It summarizes how each were represented:
Age was represented through the mother Susan being depicted as old-fashioned through her dull costume, while daughter Katie was initially shown as innocent but became the antagonist holding a knife with dark makeup.
Both main characters were female, following horror film conventions of the weak female victim, with Susan portrayed as helpless while Katie was strong and controlling atypically.
The family was depicted as middle class through their home setting, initially appearing normal but subverting expectations with hints of the unnormal life they live.
The characters were predominantly white, conforming to typical horror
Evaluation q2
The document discusses how social groups are represented in the media product. It represents women and racial minorities in stereotypical ways, following conventions of other thrillers where women are vulnerable victims and racial minorities are more likely to die. However, it subverts some stereotypes by having the killer be a girl, showing women can be strong. It also positively portrays young girls through their costumes and caring nature, rather than ignoring stereotypes of promiscuity. So while some stereotypes are followed, the media product also challenges conventions and represents social groups in a more positive light at times.
Teaser poster analysis
The document analyzes a teaser poster for a thriller film. It discusses various elements of the poster and their intended effects on the audience. Specifically, it notes that the protagonist Amy appears scared with bruises and dark circles, creating mystery and tension. The black and white color scheme, title font, and tagline are meant to convey connotations of danger, darkness, and the unknown. Overall, the poster aims to intrigue audiences and make them worry for the protagonist's safety through visual cues that foreshadow unknown threats without revealing full details.
How does your media product represent particular social groups
The document discusses how the media product Jasper represents various social groups through its characters. It had a female protagonist, Jasper, to challenge thriller conventions and engage female audiences. Jasper has high status as the protagonist and her mental health struggles are depicted through various camera techniques and sounds. The male therapist Benjamin was included to appeal to male audiences and because males traditionally hold more power in thrillers. Benjamin's high status is shown through his professional clothing and role controlling the meeting with Jasper.
Representation in TV Dramas
This document analyzes how different social groups are represented in various TV dramas through stereotypes. It discusses examples of upper and lower class characters from House of Cards and Breaking Bad and their symbolic clothing. It also examines representations of sexuality in Skins, disability in The Inbetweeners and Derek, regional identity in Our Friends in the North, age in Waterloo Road and Batman, ethnicity in The Wire and Homeland, and gender in The Office and Fringe. The document argues that many of these portrayals reinforce stereotypes through symbolic lighting, clothing, language and other visual cues.
Task 2
The document discusses how a scene in the short film was influenced by several movies about characters dealing with terminal illnesses. Elements of Walking The Halls, My Life Without Me, and 50/50 were referenced for Ashley's costuming, body language, and reaction to finding out she has cancer. Specifically, Ashley is dressed provocatively like Casey from Walking The Halls but seems shy and embarrassed. Close-up camera shots and emotional facial expressions from My Life Without Me were also replicated to convey Ashley receiving devastating medical news.
Media evaluation question 2
The document discusses how the opening sequence of a media production represents various social groups through the use of stereotypes. It examines representations of class, race, age, gender, and sexuality. Some stereotypes are subverted, such as portraying males and the middle class in a vulnerable light. However, other stereotypes are supported, like showing the female protagonist as weak and distressed. The use of stereotypes and their challenges are analyzed through various theories on representation, gender, and hegemony. There is also a discussion of whether the representations suit the goals and audience of the independent production company.

Character Representations
This document discusses the representation of the main character Bea across dimensions of gender, age, class, and ethnicity for a psychological thriller film. For gender, Bea conforms somewhat to stereotypes as vulnerable and irrational, but also challenges them by her actions. Her age as a young person represents the dangers of mental illness. Class and ethnicity are not explored in depth for Bea, though the document notes ethnic minority groups tend to have more negative portrayals while white protagonists are often powerful heroes.

Media audiences
Media audiences are complex and influenced by multiple social and cultural factors, not just their direct response to media texts. Audiences are made up of individuals, and industries aim media products at target audiences through platforms like social media. There are four main types of audiences: target/primary audiences which products are directly aimed at; secondary audiences which are less important but have fewer demands; mass audiences which frequently consume popular mainstream products; and niche audiences which are smaller and more unique.

Cast notes and considerations
This document provides casting notes and considerations for roles in an upcoming production. It lists several candidates for the roles of Claire, Helen, Isabel, and Rachel along with their ages and experience.

In the final scene, Rachel visits Claire's grave to pay her respects.
Script Remember Me
Claire is diagnosed with leukemia and given a poor prognosis. She begins writing a letter to her loved ones to express her gratitude for their support during her illness and say goodbye. The letter flashes back through key memories with her sister Helen, mother, friends Rachel and Isabel. As Claire continues writing, she grows tired and loses consciousness, with the heart monitor flatlining. The film ends with Rachel visiting Claire's grave, leaving flowers and leaving in mourning.
Cinematographers journal
The cinematographer's role was to visually translate the script and ensure proper framing and lighting for each shot. Since they were also the director, it made visualizing each shot easier.
They decided to take on the role of cinematographer because there were only two people in the group and the roles needed to be split evenly. They had some prior experience as a cinematographer from previous coursework.
As cinematographer, their role involved having a rough idea of what each shot should look like, being comfortable with the equipment used to film, and experimenting with that equipment. Though usually the director and cinematographer collaborate, doing both roles made the job easier since they knew their own vision.
Director's journal
The director is responsible for overseeing all aspects of a film production from pre-production through post-production. This includes writing and editing the script, casting actors, scheduling filming days, location scouting, equipment selection, and providing feedback during editing.
As the director of their short film, the author was responsible for developing the concept and storyboarding the scenes. They cast friends and experienced actors in the main roles. Filming was challenging due to scheduling conflicts with the actresses. Additional filming days had to be scheduled after realizing some footage was too dim.
The experience taught the importance of effective communication and organization, especially when working with a small crew, to ensure all roles are understood and the production proceeds smoothly.
Storyboard final
This storyboard outlines scenes from Claire's life, beginning with shots of her house and her writing in her room in the present. It then flashes back to memories of Claire with her mother and friend Rachel in the past. Further flashbacks show Claire learning that her mother is sick, spending time with friend Isabel, and her last memories in art class. The storyboard returns to the present where Claire becomes weak while writing and loses consciousness, depicted through shots of her hand falling and the pen dropping, implying her death. The storyboard uses different shots and angles to depict Claire's memories and final moments.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Representation
- 1. REPRESENTATION By Precious Oladimeji
- 2. WHAT IS REPRESENTATION? Media representation refers to how an audience responds to specific representations encoded within a product. The focus of the representation encourages the audience to focus on a particular aspect of the product so that they make assumptions. The product, which in our situation is the characters in our film, becomes the opinion leader and offers a constructed view of an issue/ event. Stuart hall proposed that representation is the way in which meanings are proposed through the signs and codes that are part of media language. He also said that stereotypes reduces people to a few simple recognisable characters, which they can relate to.
- 3. WOMEN REPRESENTATION Females are commonly represented in three ways with the queer theory, feminism, and post feminism. The Queer theory, which Judith talks about, states that identity is performativity constructed by the ‘expressions’ that are said to be its results. Bell Hooks states that feminism is a struggle to end sexist/ patriarchal oppression, it is a political commitment not a choice, and race/ class as well as sex determine the extent of exploitation/ oppression. This relates to our production as our production is female heavy as we only have female characters who represent something as a whole. For example, feminism is portrayed in our product as we are using our female characters to reach out to our unisex audience not with their bodies, but with their intellectual skills and easily relatable problems and issues.
- 4. CLAIRE WILLIAMS Our main protagonist is a cancer patient who is going through her last stages of her life, which is exemplified through our mise-en-scene (props e.g. an oxygen mask). Claire wears dull clothing throughout the majority of the film when she’s writing a letter on her bed. The dull clothing and a black bandana represents her loss of energy and how she is emotionally and physically drained, especially as her days become limited. This is ironic as her name is Claire, which means light, although she is outwardly exhausted she is inwardly still positive and hopeful just as her name implies. The colour black is commonly associated with death, which helps to foreshadow that Claire is going to die, or that she could possibly die sooner than expected. The theme of death is also conveyed by her skin colour which is pale and almost ghostly, which helps the audience to identify that there could be a possible death. Claire conforms to a stereotypical representation of a cancer patient as they are usually very selfless and try to put on a bold face for people around them to try and be positive. Tessa Perkins states that stereotypes are effectively used to communicate messages quickly. In this case, our audience is able to identify with Claire being a cancer patient and also being a stubborn teenage girl.
- 5. HELEN WILLIAMS Claire’s older sister is represented to be a supporting character who tries her best to make Claire’s remaining days as positive as they can be. Helen is her adoptive sister, therefore she is a different race to her (black). Black women are typically represented as quite loud and vocal, which tends to be quite negative. Stuart Hall say that stereotyping like this tends to occur where there are inequalities of power in society. We decided to go against this stereotype and make Claire's sister a countertype as she has a submissive and quiet nature. She remains positive and optimistic for her sister so that Claire doesn’t see her how her condition is affecting Helen. Claire’ sister’s personality is manifested through her costume (mise-en-scene) as she wears brightly coloured clothes which has a connotation of cheerfulness and hope.
- 6. ISABEL THOMAS Isabel is a young black female who is one of Claire’s best friends who stuck with her through thick and thin. Usually, black characters are portrayed to be the sidekick friend who helps and supports the main character of a different race. This is because stereotypes work by exaggerating certain shared features of a group as Tessa Perkins states. Even though in this case it is true, our character Isabel is still a countertype as she is not presented as loud or angry as most black females are presented. In fact, she is more extroverted and more lively than Claire. Isabel wears bright coloured clothing to mirror her personality. Bright colours, such as blue, connote a feeling of happiness and joy which is exactly what we wanted her character to be like.
- 7. RACHEL ADAMS Rachel is a young black female who is Claire’s other closest friend who goes to her grave. She is presented positively compared to how most black best friends are seen in films. Most black teenage girls are seen as sassy with some type of attitude however, Rachel is shown to be caring and compassionate in both flashbacks Claire shows, one being before the treatment and one being at her grave. Just like Isabel, Rachel is a countertype as she is a calm and collected character and in the scenes she’s in she mostly wears black. Although black is usually associated with negativity and evil, she is the complete opposite of this stereotype.
