Research:tv drama analysis





TV drama trailer 1: Narrative and genre
How is narrative and genre communicated quickly and clearly to the audience?
In this trailer of thirteen reasons why narrative and genre are clearly communicated to us by showing us the tension that is built from the mysterious story of Hannah baker and how she killed herself.This is done thorough by the diegetic sound in the trailer and the rhetorical question being asked by the characters throughout which makes it sounds like there are a lot of reasons behind things and typically is showing how high school life is affecting young people and how bullying can lead young people to suicide and kill themselves because they feel like they are being avoided and judged by the society.furthermore the multi strand narrative is showing the stories of many characters and the secrets and mystery that they are keeping from everyone which makes the drama to be very interesting and wants the audience to binge watch the show tho find out more about how a teenage has killed herself.In addition the narrative can link to. theorist bloomers and Katz for personal relationship as it is showing the friendship of a group of people in the school and how they are keeping secrets because of their friendship.in addition the teen drama can directly link to students as people can relate to the stuff that they are watching and by watching it they can find out ways of how to overcome it.

What do you notice about the use of mise-en-scene to create meanings for the audience? Think CLAMPS.

In this trailer of wild bill i can see that the mise en scene that create meanings to the audiences.this is done firstly by their costume which is smart/casual for characters which shows realism and makes everything look more realistic of having normal people in the show.in addition the police officer having their actually uniform also makes everyone alert that they are trying to make everything real.furthermore they have used both high key and low-key lighting.high lightning is used when the mood is happy and good and low key lightning is used when the character is being question by the police and something serious is taking place.This is good in showing the two separate things from the show and tells the audience when the mood is shifting.The audience in the show is Middle class people as they can. relate to this quicker and the way they like crime drama's which are with mystery and murder.The props in  the trailer like the guns, screwdriver and knifes can show the audience that this show is full of action and that the  characters are up to something which can be shown by the props.Additionally the mise en scene helps the drama too show all the stereotypical views that the audiences have by showing the costumer, props and lightning that they need have to see how this is a crime drama and how they should view it as these help them. to see how they should watch the show.





TV drama trailer 3: Camerawork
Here you are looking for particular camera shots and movement. E.g. Are close-ups used to introduce key characters to the audience? How are establishing shots used?

The trailer for Luther season 1 shows Starts with the bird eye shot of the setting and the location of which the trailer is shot in which helps show the trailer perfectly to the audience and help them able to connect to it.Additionally the closeups to all the main characters shows that the narrative is focusing on things that they are doing by making the focus of the trailer on the protagonist and all the action that is taking place with him.this  is a very normal thing that they do in trailers by focusing mainly on the the protagonist and his actions to make the audiences interact with the character and make them curious to find out more.Furthermore The trailer is only 1 minute and is quite small but shows a variety of shots from high to low angle showing how the characters are fighting between each other. which has a big effect as the camerawork .Additionally we also see a a lot of medium shots with closeups to see the significance of the scene and to understand the scene better.furthermore the tracking shots builds a lot of tension when the protagonist is wearing the props and hitting the man while he is walking, this really shows how effective camerawork is in showing the glimpse of the drama and help to engage audience to watch the drama.

Analyse both diegetic and non-diegetic sound - music, dialogue, voiceover, SFX, background or foley sound etc.

The trailer for top boy season 3  uses both diegetic and non diegetic sound for their trailer and have a constant background music that they have throughout the whole trailer.The non diegetic sound is used at the start of the trailer with the titles and then then diegetic sound is used when the characters are being introduced and constant use of voice over during each scene with the dialogue.The diegetic sound is effective for the trailer as out shows the narrative and what takes place what the person is talking about which helps the audience to understand better about the story line.furthermore the background music is effective as it goes high and low depending. on the scene which builds tension and suspense when seeing the trailer and makes the audience watch and have an interest on the trailer.Additionally the music playing in the background throughout the trailer is effective as it flows with the dialogues and the scenes that are taking place.
