Analysing shot types and edit techniques in one of the following


tv drama

Hannah and Tré


CLOSE UP

This is a close up from “This is England 86.”


This clip detonates a woman on a bus, who
looks excited to go where ever she is going. She
looks rather funky, and stands out.
Within this clip there is also connotation, we
can see that she is going to a wedding as she
has a vowel. However the rest of the outfit
does not tie in with the “wedding image.”
Although she has a vowel on and it symbolises
to us that she is going to a wedding due to the
fact she is dressed in a weird way it could also
tie in with the “image” this could be seen as
polysemic. The
Wedding
vowel
LONG SHOT

This signifier is a bus this signifies that the


characters within the film are going some
where all together, as the bus can carry a vast
amount off people. Also a bus is usually used
by young or old people, due to the fact it is
cheap this gives you a slight insight into what
the cast may be like. The signifier of the grass
signifies that they are in the countryside where
its quiet and not a lot goes on, so this could
signify that this event is a very big deal. What is
signified is that they are going to miss the bus
because it is far away from them.
TWO SHOT

This is a two shot, it denotes two teenage boys


running in the field which connotes its cold,
there is also a polysemic meaning as they are
wearing coats and running this could symbolise
many things including cold, being late ECT.
OVER THE SHOULDER SHOT

This signifier of two young people signifies they


are having a conversation and with there facial
expressions we can connote that they are not
very impressed, or in very good moods with
each other.
ESTABLISHING SHOT

The signifier is two young men looking onto the


bus that they are meant to be on, this signifies
that they are running late. This shot sets the
scene which is down a long road next to what THE
looks like a park or grass field area. We can also BUS
tell that the time off the day could be anything
from morning to early afternoon and its still
light. The weather looks very bleak and cloudy.
As this images are taken from the start of the
clip it has to set the opening shot of the scene
it establishes the setting.
MATCH ON ACTION

This signifier is the two girls looking at each


other their facial expressions signifies that the
characters within the film are having a few
issues. Their facial expressions towards each
other are those of people who are in the mist
of an argument or, a confrontation. The
signifier of the graffiti covered underpass could
symbolise a bad atmosphere.
180 DEGREE RULE

The 180 Degree rule is that the characters in


the same scene should always have the same
left/right relationship to each other. Each
character is on the same side in each frame.
The 180 degree rule work very well in the
scene.
RULE OF THIRDS

This is an image is a signifier of a young man


with thick eye brows and a weird hair style and
smiling. This image signifies that he obviously
enjoying the conversation with the person he
has turned around to talk to.
SHOT REVERSE SHOT

This denotes a young male and female having a


conversation over the phone, within two
different settings. The settings are his house
and hers. There is an iconic sign her to link the
two together, they are both in different settings
but bot next to a undrawn window. From both
of there facial language the conversation looks
akward.
ANGLE SHOT

There are many types of angle shots from high


angle, eye level and low angle. This image
signifies people within a café having something
to eat. The café looks rather small and the man
at the front appears to be reading a news
paper of some kind.
