The culture show :Liverpool Guerrilla Dance

Mise en scene:

for the Introduction of the programme there was a man in white dancing, infront of a shopping square in liverpool then it began to cut to the 3 dancers in bin men clothes and while it was mainly watching them it cut to the audience who were going around their daily lives and those who stopped to watch . After they finished the dance it cut to the two real bin men who were their doing their job.
  After that
it cut back to the man in white dancing down a street , then to a green bus driving past a shopping center then into the actually shopping center for a few seconds it cut to a security camera veiw and snapped to a film camera veiw ... all the way through this next dance there was once again shoppers watching and the camera kept going back and forth from security camera to normal camera .At the end they walked off like nothing had happened and it cut to the man in white dancing in front of an abandoned graffitied door .
  All of the other dances were the same, at the end and beginning of every one there was the man in white dancing and the dancers all in the costume that their dance type was, and also kept cutting to the audience and another camera veiw .


Sound:

during most of the clips i think most of the sound was non-diegetic because it didnt sound like the people in the streets could hear the music. The only clip that was diegetic was at the train station where you could hear the mumble of people and sound of walking like everone else who was there could hear.

Lighting:

The ligthting was mainly High key apart from where it switched to the security camera ... even though it was still a bit high key... all of the lighting was natural light there was not any lights added and it didnt look like the programme has been lightened .

Camera work :

Most of the shots were long shot whilst on the dancers and some of the audience, But there was occasionaly a few mid shots while on the audience , never really the dancers only a few times were they mid shot and close up on the dancers.
 The angles were a mix of high and low to show the dancers from above and from how the audience would see it and sometimes lower.
  The movement was mostly still but sometimes it began panning there wasnt much tracking maybe once.

Editing:

The cutting rate for this programme was very fast and the rythum wasnt the same throught-out, maybe only a few times for the different dances otherwise it was different.
 Transitions were all a straight cut transtition, but occasionaly i saw a few fades .
