CAMERA, MISE EN SCENE, SOUND, EDITING

Camera


  • High angle looking down on social worker- patriarchy 
  • Extreme close up of phone after it falls- extreme panic
  • Most camera shots of the young people were eye level equality amongst us and directly with the audience
  • Gun shot, long shot of Connie cut to close up of Eleven shot demonstrates panic
  • Level three shot of boys in woods
  • Two mid shot Jonathon and Joyce close on the sofa signifies closeness in relationship
Mise en Scene

  • Byers' house- dim lighting, brown clothes, 80s interior
  • Yellow phone contrasts and stands out = communication
  • Benny's diner - Eleven seeks shelter
  • Woods- heavy rain
  • Nancy's bedroom
  • Choppers, torches, shine Eleven's, theme of light
Sound

  • Off screen sound of pot wash in Benny's diner to on screen of Benny washing
  • Off screen diegetic knocking disruption of the narrative and raises alarm.
  • Diegetic dialogue 'you don't sound the same as you did on the phone'
  • Non diegetic contrapuntal song commences as soon as Benny is shot- White Rabbit Jefferson find song- volume and pace increase as Eleven runs away
  • Non diegetic sci fi instrumental emphasises tension when they find Eleven 
  • Joyce phone on screen siegetic sound of mysterious creature
  • Nancy's room- Africa Toto is contrapuntal- romantic mood- 80s theme
  • Look for twig sound and music interruption
Editing
  • Jump cut Nancy's room/proximity/intimacy
  • Connie pace of cuts increases- panic
  • SFX electric bang from phone communication with Will and sci fi other
  • Shot reverse shot
  • Order of the narrative- multi stranded narrative underlines the LFTVD drama conventions. In the scene- happening mostly simultaneously except Eleven's escape and discovery. Linking characters at the end of the episode.
