Camera shot 1: Medium Shot

This camera shot is used frequently, and it's a shot of a character from head to torso. The characters are watching from some sort of video chat, so this shot being used could indicate crucial information is being put out.

Camera shot 2: Two shot

This camera shot is also used frequently, and it's shot consists of two characters in one scene. In the clip we see quite a bit of two shots, so this could indicate teamwork between characters.

Camera shot 3: Close-up

This shot is also used quite frequently; it's of a character visible from head to shoulder. The shot could be used to emphasise the stakes of this scene, considering how close the camera is next to the characters. It could also mean closeness and/or close proximity between the characters, as they are in direct communication with each other.


Camera angle: Low angle

The camera is almost always at a low angle throughout the clip and it's scenes. It could be used to indicate the power that these people have, and what potentially dangerous problem they're working out to solve.


Mise en scene: Setting

The setting of the clip and scenes is low, moody and dark, maybe even a bit mysterious or unknown, as the characters are split up. With how moody the setting is, it sheds the spotlight on how crucial and urgent their matters are, like the scene is telling us this also.

Many people like Skittles for the many flavours and styles they have available (e.g. Sour Skittles, Tropical Skittles, et...

Introduction to TV drama

  1) It has a wide array of characters, a unique setting, and a dramatic narrative. 2) The genre of the show could be a dystopian future. I think this because in the trailer, it's heavily implied that time travel is a big part of the show, and that there are more universes than we think. They also show a lot of sinister and evil looking characters, who are after the protagonist(s). 3) For the character side of things, a lot of characters are shown to us here, some good, some bad. From this we can assume the bad characters are our antagonists, and the good guys are either protagonists or supporting characters. The narrative of the show is quite dark and, again, could be a dystopian society. 4) Multiple settings are shown to us in the trailer, mostly quite modern or quite old ones. They are all quite diverse and are all equally unique in their own ways. Following the theme of the TV show itself, most of them are quite dark and gloomy. 5) The target audience could be late teens to ear...
