BSR Themes & Situations
In this image the theme of sexual harassment, rape and relationships and is connoted as the image denotes a girls dress being lifted up in an alleyway. Also she is pinned up against a wall connoting that she is trapped and has no where to escape to.
The denotation in this image is of a Caucasian male being dragged out of an Asian shop this connotes the theme of racism, there is also parts in 'Bridges' where there is is a problem with interracial relationships, also these themes are present throughout this short clip they are not really clear or represented very well.
Realistic Representation
In this shot the antagonist is clearly denoted as he is wearing a hood, this is a stereotypical British gangster type character as he is dressed in black and is wearing his hood up to try and hide his face. The girl seems to be a average British girl as at the start of the scene she is in her house which looks like a common British house,
In this shot the antagonist is denoted as he is watching the Caucasian male talk to the Asian female, but the representation is not very clear and throughout the whole scene there is not much representation of all the characters it is hard to distinguish the different archetypes.
BSR Mise-en-scene
In this shot the location is well denoted and the clothing is well denoted, by looking at this image we can see the setting, the location, and the clothing used to create each character. The shoes show that this is set in the modern day and also where they are shows it the clothes also help to connote what the character is like as the antagonist is dress in all black we can tell that he is quite mysterious making him scarier for the audience.
Throughout this scene the Mise-en-scene is quite well done the clothing on the boy signifies that this is quite modern and the location they are on shows it is also modern. Also at the start of the scene there is quite a lot of shops around connoting that the area is an Asian area as not a lot of Caucasian people are around the area this strengthens the idea of racism.
Music,Sound effects & Realistic Dialogue
From the start of the scene the music is quite sad connoting that the rest of the scene will be sad this helps to set the mood . Also there is not much dialogue but it is not needed,as the visuals were quite hard-hitting there was little need for dialogue. The only main sound effect is when she is being pinned on the wall, there is a bang to show how much the girl is struggling.
Throughout most of the start of the scene the music is quite bad as it does not really match the theme of racism, the music is quite grime based connoting that the scene should be more gruesome. Also the first piece of dialogue is not very clear and cannot be heard but the second piece of dialogue is quite forced and you can hear the sound of where the cuts are.
Camera work and editing
The camerawork throughout this scene is very good in this particular shot it is a high angle connoting that vulnerable and it makes her look powerless. the match on action when the boy comes out is done quite well as it shows different parts and adds detail. The cuts throughout flow quite well and do not make the scene look jumpy, this shot here is very good as it shows the scissors and the girl in the same shot connoting
she might do something bad with them.
In this scene the camerawork starts off quite well with the over the shoulder shot but towards the end the camerawork is quite bad as parts do not flow and the actors start after they have started recording and it was not edited well to make it flow. The shots after this are quite jumpy and the match on action is not done very well as the continuity is not kept.
Appropriate opening sequence Graphic
There are not really graphics that start off the scene to create the mood , but it shows the production company so it gives the audience an idea of what type of film this is going to be as films on this channel usually have different themes.
The graphics in this are also the same there are not much graphics that establish the film but it shows that it is for the production company film 4 so again it gives the audience an idea of what type of film this is.
