Apocalypse video

There are many different types of sound used in the apocalypse video, the parallel sound of helicopters is used to let the audience hear that the scene is set in a war zone; it also gives the audience an insight into what the atmosphere is like for the characters.

Diegetic is also used in the clip when the camera moves closer to the helicopters and then moves further away from the helicopters, when the camera is further away from the helicopter the sound is quieter and therefore sounds like background sound  but  when the camera is nearer the helicopter the sound is louder and therefore sounds like the main sound. Another Diegetic sound could also be the voices of the characters as there voices are quite quiet and are like background noise.

Sound bridge is also used throughout the clip to link one scene to the next, music is mainly used to do this. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

Tessa Perkins-Stereotypes

• Stereotypes are not always negative (e.g. 'The French are good cooks').

 I agree with this as stereotypes are not always negative about someones race, religion, gender etc. For example there is a stereotype that women are more faithful then men, this a positive thing for the women but a negative thing for the men, therefore I think there is a balance between positive and negative stereotyping. 
• They are not always about minority groups or the less powerful ( e.g. 'upper class twits').

I also agree with this point, I believe that there is a lot of major and more powerful groups that are targeted, but it is not seen as much because people feel sorry for the minority or the less powerful groups, one of the most well known stereotype of a major group is that all posh and rich people, are all stupid and spoilt, neither of which is true  they are rich because the have worked hard for there money and therefore must have been smart to make all of their money.
• They can be held about one's own group.

I am undecided about this one I half agree and half disagree, I think that if the stereotype about a person is positive then they might want to be stereotyped like that, but you mainly find that most people don't want to be stereotyped and want to be there own person, and don't like being classed in a group of other people.
• They are not rigid or unchanging ( e.g. the "cloth cap worker of the 1950's became the 1980's 'consumerist home-owner who holidays in Spain').

I agree with this one as stereotypes change all the time, this is can be to do with the possessions that people have or the fashion of the time etc. for example the stereotype of women has changed dramatically over the years, women used to be seen as being useless and only good for cooking and cleaning and that work was a mans place but now women are seen as faithful, trustworthy and reliable in society.  
• They are not always false.

I agree with this statement as there are some rich people that are stupid and spoilt or there are some gay men that are very feminine and like to shop, but i also believe that it is wrong to place a whole group of people under one category as not everyone is the same and it is wrong to stereotype people like that.

Mise-en-scene

The setting for this scene is in the airport, you can tell this due to the props that are used e.g. the luggage cases, the signs in the background, the luggage trolleys and the costumes of the airport workers, the four main characters are walking to towards the screen, when most other people are walking the opposite way or are standing off in the distance, this makes the main characters look like they have authority.

The costumes that the characters are wearing represent their personality, and in some cases also show what their purpose is in the shot e.g. the man wearing the jeans and the blazer shows that he wants to be laid back but feels that he needs to still be formal and the airport workers are wearing their work uniform to show you what their job is.

The body language of the man in the beige suit gives off as being quite bored or like he'd rather be somewhere else as he is looking off into the distance. Whereas the other three main characters give off a sense of authority as if they are better than everyone else, you can tell this by the way they are walking.

In the image, the four main characters and the airport workers are the only ones you can see clearly, all of the other people and the back ground of the image has been slightly blurred out, this has been done so that the characters stand out more and so that you mainly focus on the said characters. Also to make you focus on the main characters, they have positioned them in the middle of the picture and have put nothing in front of them, so all you mainly focus on is the main characters as that is where your eye is drawn.
