The last words within this extract is during a mid shot of Shaw which shows two other characters which have been present the whole time yet haven’t stopped him, the two women shown are supposed to have a good sense of power within the hospital as one of the females is dressed in a nurse costume and the other a doctors, however the women’s body language say otherwise as they are hunched into each other to show they are scared. The dialogue ‘Rest now little brother, while I settle you one last score’ shows that he has revenge in mind whilst he rests for whoever put Hobbs into hospital, and the mysterious music along side the low angle and his costume makes the audience fear for whoever is going to come into contact with Ian Shaw. Just before the shot of him holding the gun the camera tilts up so a low angle effect is created which reinforces the previous idea of high status and that he is looked up to by his brother. Shaw picks up a religious necklace of a cross and places it on Hobbs which possibly shows the good side of Shaw and that he cares for his brother, which is contrasted with the following prop of a black gun that he retrieves and places on top of his brothers body which resembles his bad side and portrays him as a potential villain whilst his dialogue includes references to crime and gangs. The camera then pans right more and zooms into a mid two shot and the fact that Shaw’s costume consists of a suit and he is looking over Hobbs could suggest he has more power especially being his older brother, and the positioning of him looking over Hobbs may resemble the fact that he is looking out for his brother.Īs you can see from the screenshot, Shaw’s face is stern and the music becomes monotone which adds importance to the dialogue. The intense music before Shaw said ‘But then I realised, you can’t out run the past’ shows that this is an important part of speech within in the scene which could give us a bit of insight into the following shot and prepares us for the pan and zooming out to reveal the set of the hospital room and Hobbs who is topless in a hospital bed and makeup on his chest such as prosthetics shows he is heavily injured and leads the audience to believe that he is a victim.
Throughout the extract there is only one shot but a variety of camera movements are used, this is because the script replicates that of a monologue as he is talking to himself for a long period of time which shows that he is holding the floor and Is credited worth being listened to as there are no interruptions. There is a continuous non-diegetic background noise of ambulance or police sirens ringing which indicates that someone is hurt or something bad has happened and to get the audience thinking about where he could be before the shot zooms out and reveals the hospital equipment.ĭuring the panoramic shot of London, there is a sound which appears to be a voiceover as we cannot see any actors or characters, which we later discover is actually dialogue of Shaw talking. The opening shot is an extreme long shot of the city which shows the audience the mis-en-scene location, recognised as London due to the text ‘London, England’ that is edited and typed which makes the information seem more factual due to the font used which is the same font of the text that makes up computer codes, as well as the famous landmarks that can be seen in the shot such as The Gherkin, The River Thames, London Bridge etc. We later see the damage that has been done to the hospital by Shaw during the opening credits.
The general overview of the clip shows a man, Ian Shaw who is visiting unconscious and injured Luke Hobbs in hospital who he claims is his younger brother.
