Monarch of the Glen analysis

  • Starts with a dolly shot
  • Medium long shot pans to over the shoulder (shows costume of the young girl)
  • Dolly shot in close up emphasizes her uncertainly of not knowing how to drive
  • Wide shot to present a new scene/location
  • Medium long shot to establish what the headmaster is wearing
  • Pans between the characters, the camera goes up and down to represent age through the height difference
  • Camera goes down onto her eye level (begin to feel sorry for her, where as before we was unsure about her because of her lies)
  • We establish the new location using the long shot (the room is old fashioned representing age)
  • Medium close up is then used to show the world at the young girls prospective
  • Wide shot is used again to show new location 
  • Series of camera moves to represent age, tilt onto a stuffed animal, tilts to revel the goodbye note, then a pan to revel a teddy bear with another note
  • Slow zoom into the photograph which emphasises her emotion, which show her inexperience of how to deal with a situation
  • Camera is outside looking in which is representing Amy being outside looking in, she has been cut off by everyone
  • Medium close up, appreciating the lady looking out the window looking for Amy
  • Back to the man's eye level as we are experiencing the guilt of him 
  • Low key lighting used throughout
  • Finger wagging punishing the young girl, tantrum throwing her arms down and running out the room represents immature behaviour which occurs in teenagers
  • Camera focuses on props (magazines, teddy bear, childlike writing) representation of young age
