The cigar and the lighter create the mise en

scene

Relate

The same character who was

holding a lighter later gets out agun and shoots the man on fire. He

is again the only person who draws

for a gun thus emphasising his

importance and also superiority

over all the other men.

It then skips to a scene which completely contrasts the last scene.

A truck door opens and we see a man on a truck and a crowd of people below him with

their arms outstretched, the man shouts thanksgiving and the crowd erupts with noise. It

then cuts to a low angle shot of the man and then he starts throwing meat which could be

turkeys due to the fact he shouted out thanksgiving before hand.

The camera shots and mise-en-scene tell the audience that the man is

important. As soon as the truck door opens we see the man. This immediately

gives us the sense he is another man of importance and the fact that he is the

first the talk and what he says gets the crowd screaming for him backs this up.

There are shots of people stretching their arms out asking for food and the factthat they are in these positions tells the audience the type of power this man

has. Also he is wearing the same sort of clothes the previous African American

men were wearing and so we know that this man must either mirror their

importance or if not he holds more importance

Too financially demanding

Not enough equipment e.g. props

Not enough characters to meet the

demands of the storyline

Although comedies are quite cheap the things

that altered our decision were that:

We as a group where not confident enoughthat we could make a comedy funny

enough to please our audience.

Also the things we as individuals might findfunny ,others in our group might not.

Not too financially demanding

We had a sufficient amount of

equipment to film the openingsequence of a thriller e.g. props

characters

We were confident that we would beable to make a successful thriller.
