Shot by shot we analysed the mise en scene and the positioning of the camera used, and why.
For example at the beginning of the film the camera pans zooming outwards, which finishes as an establishing shot. We came to the conclusion that this was included to allow the audience to become accustom to the surroundings of the scenes, and the characters reality.
Overall this exercise was eye-opening for me, because personally I didn't think that Media Studies would be based on a lot of assumption/reasoning behind each shot, making it very subjective subject.
