1. Nine Frame Analysis-The Walking Dead
Shot 1- From shot one we can see that there are many
‘abandon’ cars, the look of ‘abandon’ cars are the genre
convetions of a thriller as it seems scary and mysterious
towards the audience . They are mostly rusty and have
either been crashed or broken down, this tells us that
the cars have been there for a while hence it is rusty.
The most interesting part of frame 1 is that all the cars
are going in one directions, this convey that they are trying to go to a destination or
they are trying to run away. The fact that there were many cars going into one
direction suggest something worrying.
Shot 2- In this shot we see a somewhat badge on the floor,
a badge identify a person or to indicate membership of an
organization or support for a cause. We can assume that
this belongs to a sherriff who protects citizen. This shows
that there is no longer protection as the badge is on the
floor, the ‘fall’ of the badge shows there was a fall in
protection.

2. Shot 3- In this shot we see 2 arrows, arrows are used to aim at objects, aiming at
some certain objects such as animals is seen as hunting. The arrows is presented as
weapons which is used for hunting animals as there is limited food. The colour of the
arrow is green and black, this is used as it fits in with the background environment.
Shot 4- In this shot we can see a graveyard this is a
convection of a thriller genre as it is associated with death.
This gives the idea to the audience that it is mostly going
to relate to death. The colour green is seen as the colour
of germs in addition to that germs are seen as a disease
in which disease causes death hence the graveyard.

The colour red assocciate with blood, murder which are all
convection of thriller. Furthermore, this image intimidates
the audience with the pupil
being a smaller than usual.
Shot 6- In this shot we see an abandon building, a
builiding/house is seen as a safe, protected place.
Where as this is seen abandon and dirty which
suggests nothing is safe nor protected. This
brings anxiety to the audience
Shot 7- This a shot of a small single bed. Bed is used for
sleep but in this shot it is seen to have been abandon. This
suggests that there is no sleep and it has been ‘abandon’,
this may be due to the fact that they dont have time to
sleep
Shot 8- In this shot we see a prison with fences and a
watchout where there is a broken fence. A prison contains
criminals, this shot suggests there has been freedom of
prisoners and this also suggests that society has broken
and everyone has become a criminal

Dead’ which is presented as in clear bold text this shows
shows it powerful. This summarises everything what has
