The establishing shot is
of an outdated doctor's surgery, lacking
many of the modern items one would expect to see, this cultural
code immediately positions the audience to regard the countryside as ‘behind’ in terms of
technology and other advancements- this is a
common stereotype of the countryside. The use of the wide angle allows the audience to see the contrast between the suit wearing Doc marten (who
represents the ‘city’) and the two boiler suit wearing tradesmen (who
represents the countryside). Doc Marten is positioned higher in the frame,
which connote
power and authority, whilst one of the two workers
appear lazy; he is seated, overweight and
eating. The room appears uncared for,
it is lit using natural soft key lighting and
through the use of the mise en scene we can see that there are boxes piled up.
As the extract continues, the stereotype of
working people in the countryside is challenged as the boy in the boiler suit
stands up and becomes the most prominent character in the two shot. The stereotype
is challenged as the diegetic sound of the conversation between larger man and
the boy suggests that the boy’s intelligence is far above what is expected from
a tradesman in the countryside. As the boy stands up he is perfect shot of the
camera which indicates his power over the shot, as the shot changes, are
opinion of him changes as we see that he is more intelligent than we expected.
The boy is now standing equally to Doc Marten which would now infer that they
are both equally intelligent. There is a contrast between the larger man and
boy as the larger man is portrayed to have a simple minded, very uneducated and
to be very set in his ways. This is a clear demonstration of the generation gap
between the two and the way that the larger man has been brought up in a traditional
countryside side setting where everything is more relaxed and is not seen to be
as involved with the wider world, unlike the boy who had a clear understanding
of books.
Further on
in the extract the audience sees a wide angle shot
that is held for a long period
of time, of both the larger man and Doc Marten. Doc marten
is standing further back in the shot and is
seen to be above the larger man, positioning the
audience to think that Doc Marten is more powerful. At the time when the
pipe bursts the larger man remains seated as Doc Marten and the boy start to
panic showing that the larger man is more relaxed and
thinks that he has time to complete the job. The camera then focuses on Doc Marten where the audience sees a close up shot of him waving his hand at the two
tradesmen. This automatically demonstrates that Doc Marten knows his power over
the tradesmen as he wants them to sort the issue that has arisen. The camera
returns to a wide angle shot where the
audience sees the characters panicking whilst the larger man remains seated and
does not try to assist the situation. This continues to support the stereotype of people who live in the countryside are more
relaxed. The boy is seen to run off to answer the phone, a diegetic sound in the scene, which is
making a rather annoying sound that further increases the stress of the
characters resulting in Doc marten having to step in and help sort the broken
pipe. This is when the stereotype of Doc Marten is challenged as we expect him
not to do any manual labour as he is from the city.
The camera angle quickly changes between
characters, going from the boy to the lady, to the dog and then the larger man
which would suggest that their priorities are very different and they think
that they have all the time in the world to get a job
done, reinforcing that they are relaxed and free-willed. The speed of the camera increases the tension and stress of the
characters and finally settles on close up
of Docs face which is full of anger and gives a stereotypical
opinion of people from the city suggesting that they want to get things done
quickly and are always in a rush.
A ‘oner’
is used at the start of scene three as Doc is walking down a small road. A tracking shot is used to follow Doc Marten as he
walks down the road, coming closer to the camera. The lady in the scene is seen
to be doing something in the boot of her car and is dressed
better than other people in the village, in a velvet jacket and blouse, positioning the audience to think that the lady is
upper class and wealthier than other villagers. This could
also connote that she uses her car to go further than the village also demonstrating
that she is not a set in her ways like most people in the countryside. The lady
has a high-pitched posh voice which could also suggest that she has not always
lived in the village. Continuing on in the scene there is a tracking shot to show the lady and Doc Marten
walking. There is no music in this scene;
there is wind and seagulls as diegetic sounds throughout the scene allowing
us to picture what is happening out of the shot also inferring that in the countryside there is little noise and it is very peaceful compared to in
the city. Doc marten is wearing a watch however the lady does not appear
to own one suggesting Doc Marten is the only one conscious of time due to
previously living in the city compared to the lady who easily gets distracted
talking to people further supporting the
stereotype that people from the countryside are
friendly.
The next shot is a long shot
of Doc Marten walking past the school. The school is central
to the shot which would connote that the school is important and could foreshadow
that something was going to happen later on. The camera then changes to a medium shot of Doc Walking past the school giving
us a sense of the direction he is looking. The camera switches to a shot reverse shot as the teacher and Doc show
acknowledgment of each other. Both the teacher and Doc Marten are on the right
side of the shot, positioning the audience
into thinking that they are related in some way. The non diegetic semantic music becomes slower and more intense as
Docs curiosity increases.
The final scene is of an old lady who is traditionally dressed in a dark green jacket and an old worn
shirt. This outfit is stereotypical of famers who
live in the countryside. The old lady is scene to be unloading vegetables
from a cart. This further positions the
audience the think that everyone in the countryside grows
their own crops or works on a farm. The non-diegetic
music becomes slower adding tension to the scene and leaving the
audience unaware of what might happen in the scene. The scene continues with a medium shot of Doc Marten and the older lady. Doc
is standing behind her in the shot which
would show that the older lady is weaker than Doc Marten further supporting the stereotype
of people from the city being stronger than those who live in the countryside.
The extract ends with a medium shot of Doc
Marten following the older lady into her house reversing
the stereotype and giving the older lady power and authority over Doc Marten.
