Analysis on Youth Drama Title Sequence.
La Haine
There were many close up shots throughout the title sequence of the peoples faces. It opens up with a slow zoom in to Said's face (the lead boy) which really shows his facial expression and then goes into a low angle shot. When Said goes to his friend Vinz's how, there is another close up shot except its of Vinz's sleeping face with Said in the background.
Editing:
Its was in black and white and there was a montage news footage.
Mise-en-scene:
The setting was in a Paris. There were many clips of protests and riots which included a lot of violence and police men in uniform everywhere. There were many people running around to get away from the danger or to join in and many vehicles were burnt.
We were introduced to Said when he was grafting on the wall in an estate writing "Screw The Police" in French and wrote his name underneath it as a tag. He was wearing a tracksuit and a chain which shows that he is from the Hood.
Sound:
A non-diegetic sound was a song that was playing was a reggae song from Bob Marley, the song talked aout burning and looting which connected to what was happening in the film. The diegetic songs that were played was a female reporter speaking on the news, there were people shouting, windows breaking and dogs barking.
