(750 words analysis) Film & TV Language: Editing blog task

C- The costumes that all the characters wear are representative of their social class but it also mirrors their environment and their behaviours. They are seen fighting using machinery and brutal which is reflected through their clothing: dark faded colours, metal accents, worn and distressed clothing. Their clothing is perhaps a perhaps depiction of both the characters personalities but also a reflection of their culture in their setting. 


L- The lighting is dark and fades, this is done (again) to mimic the surroundings along with the characters societal stance and their expected behaviours along with it. The lighting also aids to the action code of the fight scene since it adds to the thrill and excitement of the fight scene. Occasional flashes of bright and bold colours showcase one of the characters persona shining thought the scene and contrasts massively against the dark and faded lighting, demonstrating the characters uniqueness. Their lighting is perhaps a perhaps depiction of both the characters personalities but also a reflection of their culture in their setting. 


A- Due to it being a fight scene, the scene is filled with brutal fighting, using both their fists but also unique machinery which aids to the urban aesthetic of the series. Two characters sit to the side and watch the fight as another two commence within the fight. The two watching aid to the building suspense and action code along with proving the expected violent and vulgar behaviour of character similar to those in the clip. Their actions are perhaps a perhaps depiction of both the characters personalities but also a reflection of their culture in their setting. 


M- The characters faces are made to be dark dull, tiered and tough. This again mirrors the hardships that they are forced to go through due to their social stance along with aiding to their backstory and showing the audience that they are tiered of what they have been through. Their makeup also reflects their environment and their setting both visually and metaphorically. Their makeup is perhaps a perhaps depiction of both the characters personalities but also a reflection of their culture in their setting. 


P-  The props used in the scene are a range of many different kinds of weapons which are used skilfully during the fight scene in the video, ranging from guns to their fists to mechanical arms. The props aid to the violent visuals which aid to the action code of the fight scene. The props showcase the crude fight between the two characters along with mirroring the setting and backgrounds stereotypical qualities and expected behaviours. Their props is perhaps a perhaps depiction of both the characters personalities but also a reflection of their culture in their setting. 


S-The setting is dark and dingy, literally set in a dingy ally way. This is significant since this massively reflects the personas and culture of those characters in the scene. The dark and dull colours reflect the underground completely and a fight between two taking place in an ally way is fitting both in the series and in real life for all. The setting is perhaps a perhaps depiction of both the characters personalities but also a reflection of their culture in their setting. 


The editing consists of fast pace clips along with graffiti style editing overlapping which adds to the action code of the fight and a continuous reminder of one of the characters through the unique art style of overlapping graffiti. The scene consists of a montage of fast pace scenes which depict a fight between who characters, the editing slowing slightly as it flashes to two other characters watching the fight, continuously flashing between the two different perspectives. The editing is perhaps a perhaps depiction of both the characters personalities but also a reflection of their culture in their setting. 


The sound continuously flashes between diegetic to non diegetic multiple times, similar to how the pace of the editing and the perspective constantly changes. All this mirrors the suspense and adds even more further into the action code made by the fight occurring in that particular certain specific scene. The music playing in the scene is non dietetic until a certain speaker off of one of the characters mechanical arms begins to play a different song. More dietetic sounds are the punching, moving, slipping noise, feet moving, dialogue along with the speech and quotes, the gun shooting and cocking, and finally the clanging noises. Those are not all the sounds but just the start of a list of all the dietetic sounds throughout the fight scene.The sound is perhaps a perhaps depiction of both the characters personalities but also a reflection of their culture in their setting.
