Signs Sarra Reyes-Wilson
Audience The target audience is varied, but I think it is based mainly on women, as the genre is romantic- comedy which normally attracts women of all ages.
Institution
Camera Techniques ,[object Object]
Movement-a slow pan is used to reveal the office, this allows us to see that no one looks up or pays attention to him.
Position-  at the start, the camera is positioned at a birds eye view, or a master shot, this allows the viewer to only see his pillows and sheets cutting of anymore information about this man, however the way he sleeps in the centre suggests he is single and lonely already.,[object Object],[object Object]
Costume- he puts on a smart suit, this gives the impression he has an office job, something average. His suit is always grey, a bland colour that suits his bland mood.
Location- his apartment his plain and bare, there is no sign of a woman’s touch, this suggests he is single. His work place is in an office building, we can tell this by the file cabinets the computers, it seems like a dull job, and no one realises him when he steps in the room
Lighting- is natural daylight through out most of the film, but there is a scene where he is stood under a light bulb in his dark apartment, and this single spot light emphasises the isolation he feels.,[object Object]
Diegetic- the first sound we hear is the alarm beeping with a black background- this to me represents his repeated and continuous lifestyle, it is monotone. When he is in his office, we hear phones and photocopiers, that have the same repetitive and dull tone.
