So I did this on paper and actually didn't realise we had to do it on here!
I used a clip from iron Man. It's right at the beginning of the film, where Tony wins an awards, but is busy in the casino, drinking, and generally being a Playaaa.
Iron Man (watch from 06:37-07:40)
(Wow I only analysed a minute? It seemed longer at the time ¬_¬)
Film making conventions:
- WS of casino to set the scene: establishing shot.
- Tracking shot- LA- emphasises importance of main character Tony.
- Large building out of focus in background- rich, fancy setting.
- High-key lighting, hardly any shadows- sense of openness, no secrets.
We can see this is an expensive area where no-one would be unless they have tonnes of cash and are invited - quite a niche party for only the privileged.
Cultural codes:
- Sunglasses and suits - expensive.
- Large suited men behind him - bodyguards- he is important?
- Nice but ridiculously expensive looking black car, and chauffuer.
So we know he's loaded, as well as being a bit of an arrogant sod.
