Mise-en-scene: * Low Key Lighting* Front projection of light from a computer screen* Chromakey - Game footage - The footage was out of focus so that the attention was on the interviewee
Sound: * Guns* Lara's voice* Game music* Birds tweeting* Motorbike noises* Voiceover- Male, Young, Uses standard English* Music - Dance style - appeals to target audienceEditing: * Fast Cuts* Fast Motion* Superimpose
Archive Material: * Websites* Film Clips* Nike Advert * Barbie adverts* Game Footage* Magazine Covers* Interview with Angelina JolieGraphics:* Names * Profession* White Font* Sans Serif* Lower Case* Rolling Credits* Speech Bubbles where used* Anchors the meaning of the advert* Bottom left and right - Opposite side to interviewer
