Wire In The Blood
Camera Shots/Movements:
There are many types of camera shots and movements in this clip. First of all it starts at the crime scene as the two characters (Tony Hill & Alex) and come out and there is a tracking shot to follow the the characters but also enable the audience to follow the dialogue. Next there is multiple close ups of Tony and Alex as they begin to argue within each other and the close up allows the audience to engage with there emotion. Soon after there is a an over the shoulder shot and this makes the audience feel like they are involved in the conversation with the characters. At the end of this scene there is an extreme long shot to see the whole area where the dialogue has taken place to give the audience a perspective of the area. In the next seen there are many close ups of the evidence so the audience has a idea of what the character is looking at and then straight after seeing the evidence it goes to a close up of Tony to see what his reaction and see him speak about the evidence. Also whilst looking at the evidence there is a mid shot followed with a tracking shot to show that he is pacing up and down the room as this is what many people do when they are trying to figure something out, also in some shots he is scratching his head so you are able to see that he is confused. Straight the way in the next scene there is a tracking shot of Alex walking down the stairs on the phone to her neighbour asking for a baby sitter this shot is to show the dialogue. After this there are many close ups of Alex and Tony to show they are having a conversation and allowing the audience to engage with them as you can see there reactions. On to the next seen there is a extreme long shot of the house that the scene is set with a car pulling up to it the house and gives the audience of where the house is. Straight after there is a close up of the leader of a gang to give an audience a perspective of who he is. Next there is a low angle shot of the same character kicking the door down this is to show that he is a powerful character.After the high angle shot there is a low angle shot of the other characters in the building to show they are vulnerable and weak. Next there is a really quick close up shot of someone trapped in a car with a cloth wrapped round his mouth so he cannot scream like he is trapped. Next there is many close ups of different characters and we see that they are scared of the main villain. Soon after there is a two shot where one of the other characters has there head smashed into a wall and then a close up of the others reactions. Next there is a two shot of Tony and Alex's son watching TV and it looks like that Tony is his dad.
Editing
There are a lot of quick scene changes to show that people have to make quick decisions at the end of that scene. Also when the main villain enters the house and the other characters ask 'where's Danny?' there is an quick shot of him to give the audience an insight of what has happened and could be expanded on in future episodes. The scenes are fast paced and change a lot and are quite short too as all the scenes give you a quick insight of both sorts of life of being a police officer and a criminal.
Sound
There is a lot of non diegetic sound in most of the scenes to add a bit of mystery and suspense as when Tony Hill is looking through the evidence to add mystery to the case. Then to when the main criminal walks into the house and is walking around there is some background music to add suspense to the scene. There are some also diegetic sound in the scenes like soon as the scene with the criminals has finished it goes into the TV in the background and we are with Tony and Alex's son.
Mise En Scene
In this clip the woman (Alex) seems to be the more dominant character as she gives orders to Tony and he follows them, also there are the officers in uniform and they are all men and under control by Alex and this is means that she is more powerful and this goes against the male gaze. Also in a later scene Alex is on her own with her son and looking for a babysitter and we can infer from this that she is a single parent otherwise the father would of been there to look after him, then Tony turns up and she asks him to do it and he answer 'me?' showing that he isn't comfortable looking after the son but he does it anyway and this then reinforces that she has the power going against the male gaze. But when we get to the scene in the house full of criminals we find out who has power which is the man who kicks the door down and we see a slight bit of male gaze here as if you want to be top dog you need to fight for this and we see this when all the other characters are scared of him and he smashes one of there heads into a wall. Then Tony gets some power back as he finds out why the boy didn't have a baby sitter easily and in the future could use that against her to gain power and then it'll become a traditional male gaze.
