The avengers clip
In the first five minutes of the series, the audience are
immediately made aware that this series will be thrilling to watch. This is
because of the fun and bouncy introduction music that introduces us to the
series well. We are firstly introduced to the main characters in a black and
white setting. These two characters are Emma peel and john steel. It is made
clear that they have a very flirty relationship, but are not together. As he
enters the scene, he grabs a fencing stick and begins to fence against Emma.
This gives an audience a feel about what the series will consist of. You can
tell that Emma peels character is extremely strong and determined as she fences
against john, as though they are equal. This was rare for a woman to be
portrayed in such a way at this time. John is pictured to be extremely
gentlemen like in the first few scenes. He wears a bow tie and speaks in an
extremely posh manner. This would have been considered charming at the time. As
he fences he does so in a gentle stable way. I think this is a good first scene
because it portrays the flirty dynamic between them, and because they are
learning combat you get a feel on what the series will be about.

ReplyDeleteYou show understanding of the characters and what makes this an appealing programme but you need to write in much more detail. When you analyse a passage, instead of just describing, make points and support with evidence.The audience warms to their obvious pleasure in each other’s company and quite envies them the fun that they have. Whilst there is real chemistry between them, there is never a romantic relationship: it all simmers on the edge, which is one of the attractions.
