Wire in the blood (representaion of gender)

representation of gender


camera shots
At the start of the clip the camera shot used is a tracking shot; this is used to allow the audience to feel part of the setting/scene as we move along with the character and keep up with their pace, this allows the audience to feel like we are almost the public and we walk past them. Another camera shot that is used the over the shoulder shot this allows the audience to feel part of the dialogue which may interact the characters more with the action taking place. Another shot that is used is a long shot this allows the audience to become familiar with the setting in which the character in this case the characters are in a very old building that looks very old, misty (from the smoke) also cold and haunted.

sound 
The sound that is used in the clip (50 seconds through) is very sinister as the actor is working out some pictures from a crime scene this is because it is a murder investigation so may be perceived as a spooky part as he's trying to find out who did it. Also the music goes very sister like when they enter a empty old house, it looks very old and misty inside, the music may be used to emphasise the fact that it could be haunted and something bad was about to happen which it did ( he hit the mans head on the wall). straight after this scene the music turns very up beat which shows the contrast what they are doing as the men in the house were smoking and doing drugs and the man and the boy were making popcorn and enjoying a nice night in, so the sound shows the setting in theses part of the clip.

editing   
There is a flashback at one point during the clip when the man 'what happened to Danny' in which the other man says 'he disappeared' and then a clip is shown of him being held hostage/being killed. The other bit of editing in the clip is when the man is own his own looking through the documents to see if he can find evidence about the murder. The clip is clearly edited as it just show the bits in the clips when he is taking, as the camera shots are at different angles and he suggests different things quickly. This could be to make the audience aware of all the different aspects of the murder and also make it at a quick flow so the audience can maintain the information quickly but also without getting bored when listening to him talk.

mise en scene 
At the start of the clip it is clear to see the type of setting the characters are in, also the fact that they are police officers. By what they are both wearing in this clip shows that they are quite formal and high up in their job.
