Travelling and Arriving

Travelling is portrayed in a variety of ways in a film, whether it is being used to introduce a scene or character. For an example, in teen film High school musical the beginning of the first scene bagan with students leaving a school bus showing the characters arriving at their school.
However the storyline may also focus around a vechile, for an example teen film Dude where's my car? centres around a missing car that is to be found.

Future tense when in process of creating our own teen film, transport such as: Bus, Train, Taxi, Pedal bike and Walking could be incorperated into our short film.

In teen film The Breakfast Club, the intro of the film was analysed as a group and 5 characters were shown in 5 modes of transport which reflects on each individual personality.

The first character is introduced by a close up of a BMW car which instantly represents the character to hav wealth. As the scene continues, midshots are shown of a young female and her father.
The young female character is represented as spoilt through her body language and diagetic sound of her voice which sounds 'conceited'.

Second character, is introduced by a midshot displaying who is in the car. A young male with his mother and sister are seen looking 'cramped' in a car as the mother is nagging the male about him attending school. Multiple over the shoulder shots and a three shot are shown displaying the facial expressions of the charcters, this is followed by a long shot of a old,beaten car reflecting the characters 'fed up' attitude.

Midshots of a young male and his father is captured in a car, having an in-depth conversation about achieving a scholarship. The young male portrays a angry/aggitated mood as well as being seen in a baseball jacket, this is followed by a medium close up of a Jeep when the character leaves the car which all clearly represents the stereotypical 'jock' character.

The fourth character is captured in a longshot carelessly walking across the road to the point where he nearly gets ran over by a car. The image of the character having his hands in his pockets, sunglasses and earphones represents he is likely to be the incendiary of the film.

Lastly a standard, uncustomed car is captured in a long shot as a young female is seen getting out from the back seat. As the charcter leans forward to say goodbye to the driver, the car speeds off leaving the female standing there alone. This instantly shows the viewer that this character is the 'loner' portraying an unloved image.
