Analysis of feedback.

From the feedback given I can gather that we need to improve our garage band music throughout the piece for it to fit the genre better. Also the credits need to be edited to fit in during the film and not just at the end as they seem rushed and are quite plain. The picture quality of the television in the piece can't be changed as that is the best we could get with the quality of camera we were given to use. Obviously if it was a proffesional film then the quality would be much better.

Analysing the micro elements in Batman: The Dark Knight

Sound

The non-diegetic sound at the beginning of the clip creates suspense for the viewer. It is then mixed with diegetic sound when the window is smashed, to show the impact. The non-diegetic music is used throughout the duration of the bank robbery to create a more intense opening. Sound effects such as gun shots and screeching wheers els add to the scene to introduce the main theme in the film, good vs. evil.

The characters use short and intimidating speech to cause an uncomfortable atmosphere for the audience. The criminals only talk to one another just before they are about to kill each other, highlighting the 'thriller' theme to show to the audience that the film is already setting up the theme.

Camera Angles



This camera angle, an establishing shot, shows the audience where the film is being situated, in a city. As the clip progresses, the scene moves to inside a bank, where the camera angles differ and focus mainly on the characters instead of the surroundings.



This is a close up of one of the criminals trying to open the vault, it shows the viewer exactly how the robber is opening the door.



There is another close up that shows the audience the good person in the scene, one of the workers in the bank attempts to stop the criminals.

Mise-en-Scene

Throughout the clip, there are many different props and settings that make up the scene. For example, each of the criminals has a 'Joker' mask to show that throughout the film there will be one main enemy for Batman and the audience can establish that the Joker sets out his attacks in a very coordinated fashion.
