In the clip i have watched ,i have noticed many media language being presented in the way that the characters displayed there attitudes and personas .The clip is loosely based on the world of a luxury hotel life ,and how all the characters are made to form into different multi-strand narrative .Throughout the clip,i noticed the camera work were all medium shots.This told us that all the characters were equal in terms of there mischief ,it also told us that they all had some hidden agenda,this gives us an idea about the sort of clip we were watching.
Further more i noticed that camera shots were first on the important people in the play and then on the characters that were being followed .I also noticed the mise en scene in the film,when there was a stereotypical black man in the beginning ,he was talking to one of the workers in the play ,and the fact that there were two women (french) taking there clothes off in front of a woman ,this suggest to us that these are the stereotyped characters in the clip and they are based on what is typically known of those sort of people,like for french women their known as very raunchy and black men typically known as 'ghetto' although these are just stereotypes ,they are completely not true.
More over there are also a lot of other mise en scene to show the ethnicity and how it is labeled in this clip,like when the Italian man was cooking,he seemed very angry and agitated , however when the (boss) came in the started acting like the were friend when the two chef were fighting ,the point of him being chosen as a chef,also told us the stereotypes that people have based on ethnicity .
Upon other things seen in the clip were sound.There was a lot of music at one points and it seemed all round a quiet background,however when the two french lady were dancing to 'lady marmalade' it told us that there are also a lot of connection to their meaning.

Blackpool analysis
throughout the film,i have noticed key aspects that tell us what type of media language is represented in the film.at the start of the first scene ,we see the camera coming into middle view,showing a symmetrical house ,this includes the furniture and the position were the man and women were both sitting .The music at the background was tension filled,and overall quiet average .the fact that their house was quiet all the same length and size told us that they like to keep things very to the state of perfection,and the fact that the house looked quiet old ,like the 80s style ,told us some what of there age ;also the way they held themselves (for mature and grown) also told us that they were quiet old .
As the camera moved to where the husband was,this is what i recognized as the first protagonist identification,i noted that because he was the first one that the camera turned to ,he was the main focus of that scene .This scene is centered around a daughter coming to introduce her parents to her much older boyfriend ;the camera consistently closes up on the husbands facial reactions as the boyfriend of the daughter comes in and meets the parents .
the reaction to this is shown by the intensive music and the way that the camera goes to the father then the boyfriend then the father again .This tells us the reaction formed from what the husband has seen the boyfriend .The close ups were regularly followed medium shots ,and this indicated to us that there was a lot of concentration within what sort of facial expressions were taking place within the limited conversation .
Part of the mise en scene was when the daughter got defensive of when her boyfriend was being practically interrogated by her father,the mother however was a bit on the soft side agreeing with things and laughing ,however because of the close up on the facial expression of the father ,i noticed that he didn't seem to happy with his daughters choice in men .
following up ,when the daughter made an excuse to that her boyfriend and her had to tend to something,it allowed us to also see that the couple both got uncomfortable ,when they had left then viewed the husband undressing in his bedroom with his wife in the bedroom also ,she seemed to not be effected by the cause of what happened early ,however the husband noticeably was .The lighting was dim and yellowish ,and again we saw the symmetrical the bedroom was shaped .I viewed it as giving the clip an old 90s /80s effect which then told us that the husband and wife were very old fashionable people ,and the fact that they where also wearing bright and patterned clothes ,and the daughter was wearing smart and more or less suitable clothes for someone whom was on there way to a meeting,told us that the parents probably tried to appear younger than they were and the daughter more older since she is with a much older man .

primeval notes
throughout the clip of primeval i identified there being a lot of non-verbal and verbal techniques being at use .one of the main clips that i aw this being uded ,was when the man (main protagonist )was being chased by a saber tooth lion .The gestures for this were the running and falling,could suggest he was hopeless and i need for help.this is were the women that aids him comes into the clip ,she holds the main role of the rescuer as she gets on to the truck to chase the saber tooth lion away .
the gender roles were reversed in this scne because its normally the girl that is hopeless and is mainly the damsel in distress ,and the man is usually the one to save her .however this clip that we viewed was some how different .at the begining of the clip,we saw a mna and women having some sort of an arguement.the women seemed to be angry and emotional and the man avengful,this goes back to the stereotypical way that men and women are represented in action films most of the time .
further into the clip we viewed a women shouting at a man to 'do something' and the other man with the gun his hand ,the women was then thrown on to the ground was being over powered by him .

home study :characters in my film
For my film i have specifically chosen the charcaters and there personalities to fit well with unstereotypical way charcaters are chosen .i have noticed that most leading women in teen romance /paranormal romance films are very typical ,(the girl is shy ,quiet and unknowing) however my chracters that me and my group have decided upon ,have something more different about .
Malece : He is confident yet ,private person he is also mysterious and luring and this in change makes the charcater in the film seem as interesting to all the other girls at Nala's highschool .Although her highschool isnt the main centre of the film ,it has very big inpact on how the charcaters are all seen in there tribunal surroundings in typical highschool.
I feel that Malece's character is not in steriotyped group in society ,he is more of an (alone person) since being awoken he is mainly concerned with helping Nala see the extenct of her gift ,and how they are linked together through history.
In the film the poetry read between Nala and Malece is an iconic part of the film as the first two minuets of the film contain it .Nala ,as first explained is prophetess ,whom can write poetry ,that has meanings to awaken Malece ,of his 5000 year sleep ,he was present in 47BC ,when cleaopatra reigned in eygpt ,the year of spirits dynasty .
He is a spirit of night ,and this alone spepretaes him from the rest of world ,the quote i made for his descriptian ,is 'an anceint man ,in a mordern world '.
my next main charcter in te film is Nala ,she is not very generalistic ,and she only sticks with her friends which are too,not in any form ,a highschool tribe .i chose this to be a main point in the film because i dont want the charcaters to be too typical .she writes poetry ,evrey fort night ,and this reveals to her more and more secrets about Malece and how he came to be ,she finds that she is connected to him through a long line of history ,she was realted to cleaopatra because her family somehow was passed down from her.they share some similar traits .
< This is an example of a group of teenagers ,they usaully hang around with each other as the 'computer geeks ', nala and her friends do not fit in to a 'named group' in highschool .they are just three friends and the reason why i have does this is because i wanted to drift away from what people normally see in films .

three films we have watched :analysis NOT FINISHED
In the film 'Children of men ' is based in the year 2027 in a chaotic world in which women cannot have children .a former activist helps to get a pregnant women across so that scientist can help solve the current problematic world .at the beginning of the film we hear a news flash telling the people that were huddled in the cafe about the youngest human on earth whom was 18 years ,had died .this was the enigma of the film because it allowed us a limited amount of information ,to prepare us for what was about to happen .this creates suspense in a film and allows us to think up what exactly could be happening in the film ,it creates interest in a film of this genre keeps viewers watching for what happens .
The man seemed to be the protagonist ,as he was the person that the camera was following .he is then followed by the camera outside ,there is an equilibrium of the film was when he walked the man walked out of the cafe and then we hear a bomb .The effect of having an equilibrium was so that the final product of the calmness keeps the audience unknowing to what is happening .
The second filmed ,is about many troops talking about the massacre wear 24 Iraq people were killed by USA troops .In the beginning of the film there is the equilibrium ,the harmony at the at scene were the screen is first black and then shifts to the troops talking about there views on what there fighting the war for .I feel that the film was a multi strand narrative because the story's of different people were being told in one .there was no protagonist in this as there is no main leader of events that the camera follows .
the mise en scene of the film was the fact that all we saw were the what each man was telling us ,a version of there own collected thoughts of the war in Iraq.
The third film is called 'The dark night ' and this film starts off with a bank robbery ,two men
