The Dark Knight

In the first frame the scene is set for the film, we are given an overview of Gotham City Batmans home, this gives us an idea of what will happen, only from the camera view.

This next frame shows the audience the character of the story men in clown masks who are committing the crimes. This then links the audience to the joker who dresses like a clown. This is a big part as we know that the joker will be an important character.

In frame three we see a man from behind carrying a clown mask. We dont see the mans face which means that the audience are waiting to find out what   he is doing. The audience may assume that he is going to commit a crime.

We see that they are committing a robbery in a bank. It would be thought why are they robbing a bank, which would make the audience want to continue watching as they are intrigued.

In the fifth frame we find out that the men are skilled hackers. They are capable of using high tech equipment. Throughout they use props such as guns. This shows their position of power over everyone else.

They use a grenade to show their power, the actions of the criminals causes the man to panic, this shows that he is subordinate and doesn't own much power at this point. The camera is looking up towards the clown criminal which also shows the lack of power.

We see that that the criminals are bigger than just robbers. This creates mystery and suspense as we are not aware of how they came into being criminals.

This frame shows a well dressed smart, skilled man from the bank. Who is fighting against the men and that people are not as scared. This helps the audience understand what is going on in the scene.

We are shown the front of the mask but still we do not know who the man behind the mask is. This is still a mystery that the audience would be intrigued to find out.

Seven

At the beginning it is clear to see how organised the detective is as he has everything placed out in an order for when he picks it all up. Detective David Mills and Detective William R. Somerset investigate a series of murders relating to the seven deadly sins. 



These first two frames are used to represent Gluttony as we are not sure who the murderer is.











An obese man was forced to feed himself to death, this represented Gluttony. Each crime scene has a series of clues relating to other deaths and they believe they are chasing a serial killer. 

Fingerprints are found at the scene of the murder which represented greed.

Find an emaciated man strapped to a bed. He initially appears to be dead but it is soon discovered that the man, a drug deal and sexual deviant before he was captured had been kept alive by the killer for exactly one year to the day he was found. The victim, who soon dies after being found represents the sin of sloth. Unable to learn anything from the lifeless victim the detectives agree that these crimes have been planned for more than a year.




Detective Somerset is invited to meet Detective Mills wife, and Somerset becomes Tracy's confidant as she meets with him after the first few murders. Learning that she is pregnant but has not told her husband, Somerset confides in her his fear that the city is not place to start a family.

They find out that he had been cutting skin off his fingers to avoid leaving fingerprints. Doe claims he will lead the detectives to the last two bodies and confesses to the crimes.


After arriving at a location, a delivery van approaches, Somerset intercepts the driver, leaving Mills and Doe alone. The driver hands over a package he was instructed to deliver at precisely this time and location. Mills holds Doe at gunpoint, Doe mentions how much he admires him. Somerset opens the package and flinches in horror. Doe reveals that the box contains Tracy's head.
