how is age represented in Heaven by sound, mise-en-scene and camera angles


sound
has music fading at the start so they know that the tv show has started and dialog will be starting soon. the door slams which is a studio recorded sound. he does this so that it will lead on to dialog with other characters. the sound of the bike to ride past is made louder as it looks like he is coming closer and it is also really fast. the dialoge starts from the 'chavs' which include the traditional swearing and then the man changes to a nice converstaion with the other 2 character as he has a strong newcastle accent. front door open like you see in sterotypical films and tv shows. this is again a studio recorded sound so it is much louder than it would normallyt be.the dropping of the bag sound to make him noticed by the family this is also a studio recorded sound so everyone knows that they have entered the house this is also what you see in many other films.the eeee sound that is sterotypical for mums and grans to do to their young ones when they havent see them around it is also a really gordy thing to do. happy that he has arrived as its a sound of excitement. more dialoge happens and you can finally hear the voice of some of the main characters which are very strong gordy accent.then phone rings loud and in your face this is a studio recorded sound this is because they want all your attention to turn to the phone so you can understand why the girl was talking while everything else is silent.more dialoge which is inappropiate things being said. this gives the young girl a voice but it makes her loose all sophsitactiona and also gives her what the sterotypcial teenager says as he talks about sexual conducted.

mise-en-scene

people in track suits and a child riding off on a bike with the man shouting at him. 'chav'. the lad is causes problems. council estate. this maybe sterotyping by the way they look. then you have the man and the women dressed quite presntable womens top is a little see through showing youth as the older genteration wouldnt wear something so revealing. the lad had his hair swept to the side like a teenager would have so this alsp shows his youth.they walk into a terrace house but this house looks a little nicer than the rest with the white at the front. so this could show that they are a nicer family than the rest of them a sthey dont follower the 'chav' council theme and actually look slightly classy. this also makes the house stand out so it is most important house in the street in the tv show. then whe you go in you see vicky who is wearing: golden short shorts, loads of make up, crazy hair.this makes her look like a sterotypical 'slutty' gordy. then there is the gran in a flowery lilic dress in a wheel chair full covered up head to toe, grey hair big jam jar glasses. this is the sterotypcial gran she has modesty in the way she dresses as back when she was younger they didnt show skin or anything like that. and then finally there is the mum wearing a v neck top showing skin but not too much, bob hair cut. knee length skirt slight formal, she is covered up but not as much as the gran which is inbetween the gran and her daughter. she also seem sophsitcated

types of lighting in tv shows and films

  • Soft Light

    • Soft light, also known as “bathtub,” creates a broad area of light. According to the Television Production Handbook, this kind of lighting is designed for background illumination. Lighting technicians or videographers use soft light to create shadows or disguise imperfections. Soft light is effective at hiding blemishes, wrinkles and lines. Soft light is light that bounces off the inside of umbrella-style reflectors. Reflectors are devices that redirect light toward a particular object. Lighting technicians use them to create soft lighting effects. One of the best environments to use soft light is when photographing models. One type of equipment that is used in a soft light environment is the broad light. The broad light is rectangular-shaped, has a wider beam and throws off soft shadows. Lighting technicians also use spun-glass diffusers, which are placed over the front of lights. Not only do these devices spread and soften the beams, but they also cut down on the light’s intensity.

    Hard Light

    • Hard light produces sharp, hard and precise appearances. It creates results that are opposite from that of soft light. Hard light reveals imperfections, such as showing moles, bumps or splotches on an actor’s face. Lighting technicians like to use hard light to bring out the texture of surfaces, intricate designs of jewelry or patterns in sofas or love seats. One type of equipment that lighting technicians use in a hard light environment is the ellipsoidal spotlight. This equipment creates a concentrated beam of light. If lighting technicians use it with gels, the ellipsoidal spotlight can throw off a group of colors of light on a background.

    Ultra-Soft Lighting

    • According to CyberCollege, ultra-soft lighting is ideal to have so video equipment will not lose significant detail of video or pictures. Problems can occur when videographers are shooting shiny and metallic objects, such as jewelry and silverware. If lighting technicians are using standard lighting, the reflections from these shiny objects degrade the video levels in darker locations. Therefore, the detail is missing.
