2. While this shot is a matched cut which is used to represent a familiar
relationship between the characters (co-workers). However, the bar in the van's
window represents a fracture with in the relationship of the characters. This
could represent disability as he is scarred which is portrayed as intimidating in
this clip. Due to this, his scar has converted him into a social outcast.

3. This is the subsequent reaction shot after the shot on the first slide, this specific
shot is an eye line match shot, however the window of the van, as in the
previous shot creates a divide between the two characters, also the case is that
the van makes the character in it seem higher, this could be used to represent
inferiority to people with disabilities like the character in the shot.

4. There is a reaction shot used to show the main character telling the other male
character to ‘fuck off’. This is used to show his reaction to the situation and
shows his attitude towards the fact that he would not be on the same pay as he
used to be. This shows his anger at the fact that he is now scarred and how he
feels like not he is less of a person. By the fact that he is not going to be on the
same amount of money if he was to go back to work, it shows that he is not
valued by his boss anymore and how he is not seen to be as important. This
further shows how society does not see disabled people as important as people
who have not got a disability.

5. In this shot, a superimpositions shot is used. This is because the fence is in the
foreground and this is the item that is in focus. However, we can also see the
character in the background who is out in focus. This may be used to show how
the make character feels as though he is trapped because of his scarring. It
shows how he does not feel as though he is like the other characters and he
feels as though he is different because of his scarring. As he is the item that is
blurry, this may be used to indicate that society forgets about disabled people
and isolates them from everyone else.
