Transporter thriller micro-element analysis.



Camera Movement and Angles:
Lots of close ups used during the fight scene keeps the viewer interested and shows how the pivetable points of the combat can change the final outcome for the main character, the high angle shots used represent how the protagonist is dominating the enemies while when he is in danger he is shown at the same level as the enemy. The protagonist is shown to be in peril more than once during this scene which is a typical convention of a thriller film.

Sound:
All diegetic sound available is used from gunshots to voices but this is joined by a non-diegetic upbeat soundtrack over the top, making it more appealing to the audience especially younger viewers. This type of sound is most typical in an action thriller to build up suspense and intensity.

Editing:
The editing used is very quick moving between lots of different camera shots, only really using normal cuts and jump cuts making the story easy to follow but still keeping the audience entertained.

Mise-En-Scene:
The setting of the mordern house with darkish lighting is typical of a thriller action film so that it can represent the darker mood of the thriller genre, the furniture and and decorative props are typical of the house enviroment while the guns an axes are more typical for the action involved.
The costumes are formal dark suits or clothes for all of the enemies with no special make up apllied which is typical for enemies in most action thriller films. While the lead where's slightly more brighter clothes with not really any make-up but still looking better than the others as he is the attractive lead which is typical of all thriller films in general.
