pee's on editing

coming down the mountain

Ability is represented through editing. Editing uses shot/reverse shot to make the able boy called David more superior. This evident when David is on the phone, as the shot/reverse shot is used to make David drive the shot, which makes him look dominant.

Ability is represented trough sound. Sound uses asynchronous sound to make David look superior. This is evident when the audience hear David's voice but when the shot changes to the boy sleeping we still hear David's voice. This is also used to make David seem superior.

Ability is represented through editing. Editing uses long takes to make David dominate the shot. This is used to show that David is superior. This is evident when David goes into the kitchen and he blames his brother Ben for eating all the weetabix.

Disability is represented through editing. Editing uses short takes to show inferiority towards David's disabled brother Ben. This is also evident in the kitchen scene when the boys are arguing about the cereal.

In the first moments of this clip ethnicity is represented when we see that the woman of the family is making a full english breakfast, which is a part of the white english culture. Another thing that indicates to the audience that the family are english are their cockney accents, this also reflects on the english culture. Ethnicity and sound are represented agian through the young male shown at 0:13, this males choice of language is vulgar, which also signifies the cockney culture.

homework


Chris Tucker's social class is represented through cinematography.

We dennote this when he is talking to an old man called Yu. while having the converstaion with you we see the rule of thirds come in to play because Chris Tucker is always dominating the shot.

This show the audience Chris Tuckers importance as one of the two main protagonists (the other one being jackie chan).

Yu's social class is represented through cinematography.

We dennote this when Yu is talking to Chris Tucker and within in the switching of dialogue there are a sequence of over the shoulder shots and Chris Tucker is always shot in a high angle shot.

This cannotes that Yu is in a higher social class. This also dennotes that Yu is in his comfort zone and has more power, as Chris Tucker is in Yu's matial arts club, while on the other hand Chris Tucker is intimidated by all of Yu's fighters.

Chris Tucker's social class is represented through sound.

As the audience we dennote this when Chris Tucker is talking to Yu and he shouts out "you, me evrybody's ass around here, him".

Through out this clip Chris tucker has the most dominant voice. This suggest that Chris Tucker has alot more power than Yu. as Chris Tucker is a LAPD detective and Yu is a martial arts teacher Chris Tucker definitely is in a higher position of power. an example of Chris Tucker's voice dominating the sceen would be when he is talking to Yu and he says " SHUT UP".
