As we are doing a documentary it would be difficult to manipulate what the audience see, because of the reality the documentary offers. Our documentary is on sexual health awareness, so interviewing young people could show across the 'male gaze' as many young people dress provocatively. On the other hand the 'Feminine mystique' would be portrayed accidentally but we can choose to include who we show from the interviews. I think purposely we would choose to portray more the 'male gaze' as we all know 'sex sells' so we will be using attributes of that in order to attract more viewers of out target group.
However the theory of the 'Female Gaze' Could also be applicable as one of our presenters and experts for the show are Females. Ideally we would use her to attract more male audiences and even female audiences. As its a 'Sexual Health Awareness show' we are trying to reach a different variety of audiences to advise and teach. Although the males objectify woman in a different way then women do, the 'Male Gaze' and the 'Female Gaze' is going to be applicable in a manner we can't control.
