the opening shot is an extreme close up of the main character of the main character Tony's face. it then zooms out into a birds eye medium shot that reveals an interesting miss un scene choice as the duvet cover has a naked man and women on it. This miss un scene choice supports the Stanley Hall 1904 theory that all young people seek excitement through drugs sex and criminal behaviour. To contrast this, the protagonist is awake before the alarm which disrupts Hall's theory by making the teenager organised and not late waking up. To support this further, his room is tidy and organised when we see a cut-in medium close up shot of a drawer and him pulling out a neatly folded shirt. The shirt itself is disrupting the stereotyping of what youths wear.
Ine the next shot, a medium close up, we see the sister of the main character wiping off old make-up. This supports halls theory of all youths seek excitement through drugs and sex becasue she has obviousy hasnt had time to take of her make-up because she stayed with her boyfriend.
A good start demonstrating you understand how to link theories to your points and that you know how media language is being used to support or break stereotypes. Targets:
ReplyDelete1) Learn to spell miss-en-scene.
2) Use more theory.
3) Make sure you are using at least four camera and sound terms, making three references to miss-en-scene and two to editing every paragraph.
