Representation of Ethnicity - Essay

Camera movement

  • the camera appears to be shaky - point of view shot - gives impression of hand held camera :- gives impression that viewer is there in the scene making it more tense building suspension
Camera Angles
  • High angle used for white male character - he is more significant than the black male character - stereotypical 
  • low angle for black male character 
Camera Shots
  • close up - show facial expression - black male character appears to be fearful yet attempts to compose himself - white male character appears angry and dominant
  • medium shot is used to show the scene as a whole - the black character is on the floor the white character is not 

Editing
  • continuity editing - creates illusion of continuous action - realism
  • Straight cut
  • short shot duration conveys urgency and action
