Attack the Block - Opening

(Up to 3:10)

  • S - repetitive beats, violins = dramatic. Gradually builds to firework (diegetic). Monsters, weird noises, horror.
  • S - disjointed - dialogue broken up with non-diegetic soundtrack.
  • MES - location, dark alley, graffitti, night, symbol, marking territory.
  • MES - costume - black, hoodies, trainers, scarf - only see their eyes.
  • Circling victim - S - bikes - tyres + chain hissing, snake/evil
  • S - language + accent different to hers. Female, middle class. Male - "merked"
  • Camera positioned around them - building them up
  • Low angles - appear like monsters
  • Isolated locations
  • Space - link to youth being alienated
  • Juxtaposition of 2 locations - when other adults around - noisy, light, colourful, open
  • Background fireworks - loud, dangerous.
