Analyzing a Still Image


Acting on Feedback:
This first picture is the most successful because, I think it shows more genres significant. Compared to the other images that we took, this shows more of the British drama side. If someone looks at this image I think they could guess it is based on drama because of what’s going on in the picture. Drama’s are serious and portray a real life situation; this image does to this because someone is trying to strangle her which could happen to anyone.


Genre signifiers for a Drama
Colour- dark
Costume- what an everyday person would wear.
Character types- can be any type that will fit in a everyday society which means it could be someone at work, or someone with a mental illness
Objects/ props- something that everyone uses
Setting – Civilised space
Sound – that suits the moods of the scene.
Plot lines – conflict between themselves

  1. www: You have discussed in detail what these still images show and link them to the genre.
    EBI: It would be useful if you discussed which still image was the most successful at showing your genre most clearly - as well as having a clear list of genre signifiers for your chosen genre.
