Evaluation Activity 2



We have a comparison here of a similar interrogation situation, the top picture being from our opening two minutes of Avraj (playing the antagonist) interrogating Sam McCool (the protagonist), now comparing this to the bottom picture of The Joker (Heath Ledger), from the Dark knight, these two pictures have both similarities and differences.

Firstly, the similarities between these two photo's is the type of clothing that is worn, we can see from both pictures that they're both wearing formal attire, which consists of a blazer and also a smart shirt, which creates the effect within the audience of mystery, wealth and power, which is needed in an action film. Also the setting is similar in a way, this is due to
 make the setting feel like it is tucked away in a warehouse somewhere, comparing to the picture at the bottom we can see some similarities of the setting as they're both set in a warehouse scene. Another and final similarity is the facial expressions on the faces of the antagonist's, giving the blank expression on the faces, making the audience feel that they don't care about their actions and connotes the idea of the character being emotionally stunted and dangerous.

There are also some differences between these two photos as well. One difference being that the setting in the bottom photo makes it feel more like an action films, due to the better equipment, make-up and budgeting. comparing this to the top photo, the top photo (A scene from our opening two minutes) gives it a sort of action film, but you can tell this was done in someones back garden in their shed, due to the equipment seen in the scene.

Overall, there are some similarities and differences from the two photos and that I personally think that there are more similarities than differences. In our opening two minutes we tried to make Avraj feel like The Joker in the mysterious, cunning and powerful way, giving a huge effect on the audience.
