Opening - Deja Vu (Ella)

Laughter


Quick action


Fade cut


LS/High angle
Camera Work
  • Most of the opening shots are long shots of people rushing of the bus and the birds eye views of the harbour to establish the setting.
Editing
  • There are lots of quick cuts which creates suspense and urgency.
  • The opening titles gives the appearence of survilence and some titles are paused mid action which shows the urgency.
  • A few of the cuts are fade cuts from the birds eye view/high angle of the harbour to the inside of the ship.
Sound
  • The sound track is almost contrapuntel when the people waiting to greet the sailors as they appear happy and laughing yet the soundtrack creates suspense and is upbeat.
  • The sound of the people and the cars rushing past is amplfied to emphasise the fast action.
  • To emphasise they are near the sea the sounds of seagulls and the ship horn is amplified.
  • There is no clear dialogue to explain what is happening which raises questions as it is not clear what is happening.
Mise en Scene
  • The lighting is fairly bright creates a sunny day which allows the facial expressions to be easily seen.
