In this post we looked at the sufferagete film opening to get inspiration for our own film.
It starts with a close shot of machinery working into a dark and dirty factory where they are women washing clothes.The lighting means it is hard to show any proper detail. However all the women are in gray. Then non- digetic sound changes from very quite calm music to my women shouldn't have the vote. The camera then looks up at the factory owners who are both men. They clothes have more colour than the womens and there room is well lit. However over all the scene is calm.
The scene then changes to when one of the main characters seems to be on her way home. This scene also starts calmly however the music has changed again to slightly quicker music. The lighting is also brighter so we are able to see more details, This is creating the feeling that something big is about to happen. The camera angle then changes to look at the rest of the scene where more and more women are coming into shot. Then the camera starts to get closer to one women with a pram. She sames the first piece of speech. She screams "Votes for women". This turns the scene from calm to chaotic. Women start to throw things trough windows. This means that the camera changes to smooth shoots to quick sharp shots that emphasis the fact the scene is no longer calm.
