2. MISE-EN-SCENE…
The setting of the film is in a suburban
geographical region of area, this is
exemplified through the background of
following image:
3. SOUND…
There are a lot of diegetic sound during the short film,
most importantly the main feature of sound that stood out
to me was the main characters strong accent. The main
characters accent sounded like an Irish accent which also
reinforced the idea of location where the film had been
set. The film started with a calm sound track which was
suddenly interrupted abruptly by a non-diegetic sound of
a train horning. This may have been used to emphasise
the execution of the calm mood the peaceful soundtrack
was setting seen as straight after this abrupt interruption
the audience were faced with the visuals of the main
character walking vastly which reinforces the fact that the
horn may have been a way of bringing the audience back
to reality in parallel with the visuals
4. CAMERAWORK…
The first establishing shot of the short film is
a birds eye view shot of the main character
lying in his bed. However this shot doesn’t
just get the character only in the shot, it also
gets the background of the room which is
very cluttered and untidy which reinforces
realism of the film.
5. EDITING
When analysing the short film I noticed that
the film consisted of a lot of jump cuts. This
may have been deliberately implemented
simply to give the audience an in depth
understanding of the characters lifestyle due
to the fact that there isn’t a lot of time during
the short film so that abrupt jump cuts allow
the audience to see the background of
character quickly.
