1. 0:03 - Medium Close Shot
Because this shot is so close it gives the impression that the character has a secret that he doesn't want to reveal. This is due to the concentration shown on his face as well as the connotations of being in an enclosure being that there is something to hide, this is revealed to be true later on in the narrative.
2. 0:05 - Pan Shot
This shot creates suspicion for the audience as they would want to know what is happening seeing as more of the setting is revealed showing the boxes in the background as well as the character appearing to be in a garage of some sort. Due to the fact that the character is in a suit he doesn't seem to fit in and therefor adds to the secrecy revealed in the first shot.
The audience now able to see more of the character, this is effective as it allows the connection between the audience and the character to form, due to the medium shot revealing more of the character, making him appear more open to the audience.
4. 0:09 - Over the Shoulder Shot
This shot shows that there is some sort of conversation taking place between the characters however due to the camera angle placing the officer (left) as appearing higher than the character, it demonstrated that there seems to be more authority with this character.
5. 0:16 - Zoom-in Shot
This shot is effective as it reveals a new character and focuses the audiences attention on this new character.
6. 0:18 - Medium Close Shot
This shot is used in order to inform the audience that this character is of importance as there has been a shot that reveals the appearance of the character. Similarly the the previous shot, it is intended to make the audience form a connection with this character.
7. 1:02 - Pan Shot
This pan shot is very different from the previous one. one reason for this is because this pan is done at a speed. This creates the effect that the events occurring at this time (trying to hide the immigrants) is done in a state of panic. this makes the audience wonder what is happening and creates a sense of excitement as the slow pace from the earlier shots has now been quickened.
8. 1:27 - cut in
Due to the fact that the theme of secrecy is exerted through the previous shots, the cut in to the lock and key is effective as it shows that there are restrictions that are not made to be revealed to the audience yet as well as the police shown earlier. There is also a lot of irony used as a lock and key is usually used for protection however they are trying to protect themselves from the police, people whose jones it is to protect the public.
9. 1:42 - Close Up
This shot is intended to emphasise the panic that the characters are feeling which is intended to be translated onto the audience. Seeing as they are hiding from the police it is a frightening situation to be in which is demonstrated in this shot.
10. 1:49 - Zoom-in Close-up Shot
Dramatic effect is reached in this shot. This us because the shot is intended to make tension intensify as they have realised that they have left someone behind. The zoom is symbolic of how this character has just realised that they have made a grave mistake in leaving this person behind, further emphasising the panic of the situation.
11. 1:52 - Tilt Shot
This is an informative shot. it shows that the character spoken about in the previous shot is hoovering and wearing headphones which provides reason as to why he wasn't able to hear the panic that came from having the police coming in.
12. 1:59 - Pan Shot
This shot is placed in order to show the audience the extent at which they have to hide and also shows the variation of people that have to hide. This includes people from mixed ethnicities and mixed genders, all showing a panicked expression.
13. 2:10 - High Angle Shot
This shot is used to portray the drama within the scene. Due to the fact that you are able to see this character from waist up as opposed to an extreme close up is because it gives the audience a perspective as to what is happening. Because this is a high angle shot it shows that this character is vulnerable.
14. 2:51 - Pull Focus Shot
This shot creates a lot of fear and exerts dramatic irony as the audience know that the police are about to take the blurred character from the previous shot. This makes the audience tense and feel helpless as they are watching the actions unfold without being able to do anything.
15. 3:01 - Tilt Shot
This shot is intended to draw pity from the audience. This is because the tilt pans down back to the hoover, which implies that the taken character was just trying to do his job and now he's been taken because of that fact.
16. 3:10 - Tilt Shot
This tilt shot is very different as it shows that there is a relationship between these two characters. It appears that the character when as the manager or supervisor who is comforting the character in her arms.
17. 3:22 - Zoom Shot
This zoom shot is different from the realisation earlier in the way that it infers that the character is about to face some form of conflict. This is inferred from the very serious expression on her face.
18. 3:44 - Dolly Movement Shot with Tripod
This shot is intended to create movement not only in plot but physical movement as the audience are being moved with the characters due to the camera position. The rushed tense atmosphere is continued due to the speed at which the movement is done. This is symbolic of how the manager is desperately trying to keep the taken staff member and the rushed shot adds to her desperation.
19. 3:54 - Medium Close Shot
This shot is the same shot that we see from this character previously which has the same connotation of this character being important as she appears to be the general manager. It also shows the concern on her face which confirms to the audience that their efforts to keep the staff member have failed.
20. 4:57 - Pan Shot
This shot is similar to the previous pan as it shows the different ethnicities that are present however it also shows that they are apparently self-segregated as all of the ethnic groups are with their own. This shot is effective as it shows the differences in culture between them all, for example, one of the groups pray before they eat however other groups are talking loudly and eating very fast.
