Sequence A
Firstly we are shown an establishing shot of the
outside of the building and then we see a character in the office
searching for profiles on the computer and the computer reads 'top secret' we
see a shot of him typing and a side shot of his face. Then we cut to the warehouse and
we see a box containing jewellery
We are given information on the screen of the computer
and wear the office is also the side of the face of the character, we can see
the jewellery being thrown into the box in the warehouse
But we don’t know why the character is searching for
these specific people, we don’t know why they are in the warehouse or why they
are taking jewellery and putting it into a box. We also can't see the full face
of the character in the office
This sequence is important because it gives us as the
audience a small insight into what the man is searching for on the computer and
the fact that people are taking something but we don’t know why, or if the
people are stealing. Also because the scene is intercut we know that it is all
linked together but we don’t know how
We need to see the in between scenes to show that it
is all linked, the audience want to see the enigma of the scene. The order
of the sequence increases the level of interest as it giving part of the story
but not all of it.
Sequence B
They cut between the action at MI5 and the
thieves to show that they are linked but also because at MI5 these could be the
people that they are searching for on the computer
When I first saw them I thought that they were
taking jewellery for a certain purpose, but I didn’t think that they were
stealing
Screen shot K is crucial to knowing what the thieves
are doing also screens D and L because then we can see the faces of the people
that they are looking for.
We see less of the thieves because they want to create
a mystery to them and, as they are thieves they don't want to give too much away,
or this could indicate that we are not supposed to know too much about them
10 we know what they are doing towards the end of
the sequence, it takes a long time because they want to leave the enigma there
as long as possible to keep the audience interested
