2. About the film Drama/Comedy. Real Life? Released 2007 Directed by Steph Green
3. Micro elements: Camera angle, movement and position Position- behind Joseph (over the shoulder shot), then camera turns to face him Medium shots- at the beginning of the film to introduce Joseph to us, almost as if he is being revealed Close-ups- intimate shots, shows their facial expression so we can work out their emotions Camera zooms on Joseph- as he begins to daydream Long shot- show us more of the locations Low angles- give characters appearance of more power
4. Depth of field Lots of narrow depth of fields- used to put the focus on certain characters Beginning of the film- when we first meet Joseph, only he is in focus
5. Framing Mainly just characters in the frame, with background out of focus Facial expressions of other pupils can still be made out Just character’s face in frame- if its more emotional Rule of thirds has been followed
6. Editing and Special Effects Continuity editing Match on action Editing and sound used together- sound bridge on change of scenes from Irish school to African school Transitions-simple cuts Composition-mainly characters in the foreground
7. Mise-en-scene Film set 2 locations- Ireland and Africa Costume-used to show the difference in the two locations of the film and mean different things about the characters Props-Irish school- books, pictures and drawing on the walls etc, school in Africa-basic furniture, chairs and tables and a blackboard, walls are bare, no books Colour-different types of colours used in each location, to reflect Joseph’s feelings Lighting- contrasting lighting in each location to show the moods of the film
8. Sound Mainly diegetic sound Non diegetic sound- mood music Sound of school children laughing and chatting- one of the first indications to where the film is set Different music for when Joseph begins to daydream- repetitive, has a beat, hypnotic, dream like Silences-add tension
9. Script Important to help develop the narrative Dialogue-reflects how the children feel about Joseph Regional dialogue- all the children are from Ireland except for Joseph, so it singles him out
16. Narrative Josephs point of view-3rd person Concept of time- day, learn about the past through Joseph’s thoughts Characters-move narrative along Linear structure
17. Representations Set in present day, but does look back at the past Joseph- typical school boy, trying to fit in somewhere new Teacher-strict, has authority, caring Naughty school boys-typical trouble makers Follows stereotypes Todorov's theory of equilibrium is followed Gender and status are represented Audience are able to identify with characters
18. Audience Target audience-teenagers and adults Constructed to appeal to audiences- realistic and sends out a message Positive response to film The audience are being asked to identify, sympathise with Joseph
19. Themes Themes-racial prejudice, tragedy, loss, confrontation, bullying, acceptance and friendship Teaching us to be more accepting Comments on society-wedon’t let people in Means our society needs to change and we need to learn to put ‘differences’ aside
