TRANSCRIPT

1. The colour red connotes to love. The red ambience of the scene creates a very warm and inviting atmosphere for the viewer. Love is normally quite warm which is why the director has specifically chosen the colour red as the film is to do with love. The sun is also a very warm tone and creates this warm atmosphere, the sun is almost like a pathway for the man. Its also shining down on him this could signify he is the main character within the film. This is a convention as the main character is introduced within the opening sequence. 2. The use of the long shot establishes that he is is the main focus, especially the use of the positioning of the man.

The long shot of the view from inside the house onto the man, shows the woman is looking at the man. This could connote that the man and the woman are the focus of the film as the woman is looking out onto the man who is in the focus of the shot. The continuing of warm colours also creates this atmosphere of love and comfort, supporting the idea of the man and woman being the focus of the film maybe about their love story. 7. The long shot of the woman by the window implies she is an important character as she is in the house which has been the main focal point for the opening sequence. The reflection of the birds also refer back to this idea of freedom. The continous warm colour also establishes the theme of love and comfort. 8. The mid shot of the womans face introduces her character. The shallow focus shows she is a main character within the film as
