CUFFS: MEDIA LANGUAGE, REPRENTATION OF CHARECTERS, SOCIAL ISSUES ANS CONTEXTS

 We watch cuffs on ClickView and work from the OCR GCSE text book starting at page 5.

 arc pan follows eyes looking for shop lifters

non diegetic

donna is in front running - equality 

lets Jake cuff the shop lifter for experience 

arc pan again - Jake is confused 

Jake is embarrassed and confused

cut from Jake to prison door locking

contrast of Jake being spat on compared to chief super intendent saying "the public respects and supports the police"

we see police doing their job as well as their friendships and comedy between the police

people use media for needs:

escapism, diversion and entertainment, usually choose media the reflects us - personal identity, watercooler moment - social bond, surveillance - naturally nosey so want to learn

eye contact between Jake and Simon who are both gay - sets up for more throughout the series

two shot and focus pull between Jake and Ryan. Ryan isn't talking directly to Jake but wants him to hear "we don't care what your parents do" Jake is soft focus and comes into focus when he realises and understands 

Donna and Lino react smirking - shot to shot - smirking - reaction shots

After that motivated edit, hard cut to Jakes dad

Joe is torn between decisions, hesitant, interpreted his reassurance as flirty or professional guidance

close up on Joe shows reaction, emotions after her interaction with Chief Super-intendant Vickers

shot reverse shot, little narrative, Felix feels deeply and feels lots of pressure, lots of strain on the individual

cross cutting between police of duty lunch out, builds relationship
