1st shot 


This short movie documentary film starts with a dark/almost black background then a short paragraphed text appears of what was actually happening in the film. It started by stating of what happened in the autumn 1995 of the era and what had happened in the prison chambers of Barlinnie Prison the text is written in a white/bold with a black background and centred in the middle of screen this was denoting a place were people were caged and taunted by prison officers for what ever crime they had committed.


This is the picture of the Barlinnie prison chambers  -

2nd shot 


The  angle of this shot is a low angle the denotation of this particular shot is of man looking up at something, the colour of this image (still image) is black and white. This is very similar to our movie because we want to incorperate still  images into our movie scene because it makes it more thought about and more interesting to analyse the picture and what it denotes and connotes.

  1. An unusual choice of film to research. Please explain.

    In addition, think about more creative ways of completing your research tasks.
