21. Clip Analysis
• Camerawork
– Dark lighting around darth vader makes him seem like a very imposing figure and a dangerous enemy
– From most angles the camera is looking up at vader so he looks bigger and more imposing, this makes the audience more scared
for the characters
– Lightsabers the glow from the lightsabers onto the characters shows them as the good guys and the bad guys based on the
colour reflected but the reflection is less on the good guys showing they are less powerful than vader
– The Dark lighting around the characters shows that they are in trouble as the darkness swallows the light around them
– The smoke and fire all around them gives the idea that destruction and danger is everywhere
• Editing
– The bad animation retracts from the scene and the action because it just pulls you out of the action, this makes the audience
watching annoyed
– The explosion behind vader makes him seem bad ass this makes the audience think he is very powerful
– The Fire behind him as he lifts the walker gives the idea to the audience he is a very powerful characters
• Music
– Using soundtracks that relate to the characters empowers the scene, this brings the audience back to the original movies
• Colour
– The red light glowing from his lightsaber reflects on his armour and everywhere so it emphasises that danger is everywhere
– Dark costume reflects the lack of light in vader as he fights making the audience afraid of him
• Dialogue
– Short dialog and more action makes the character more scary and imposing because he doesn’t need words only power
– Bad voice acting feels out of place and takes you out of the action further
– Deep breath from vader are iconic and further improve the scene giving the audience shivers
• Props
– The walker landing on darth vader and him surviving gives the audience the idea of how powerful he is
