This photo looks almost like a horror scene or a secret laree because it has the huge dusty cobwebs, everything is dusty and old looking. There is no natural lighting, the only light is from a street light and a dull light hanging over the car. The garage looks very run down and this signifies that character wont be very wealthy or classy.

This is when we are first introduced to Jason, who is the bad guy, we know this straight away because he looks like a thug and there is a lot of dirt on the screen which symbolises that so is he. The camera angle is at a slight tilt and there is only one light is visible behind him. His shirt is the only real colour in this shot and because it is gold this connotes higher status/ a mob look.

This shot shows them driving into a tunnel, the tunnel goes into a vanishing point with connotes the unknown and a point of no return for Billy who doesn’t really know what he has got himself into by getting involved with Jason and the ‘gangs’. Looking down the tunnel is also like looking down the barrel of a gun with is like looking death in the eye.

This shot of them in the car with the light reflection on the window looks like bars symbolising a prison and that Billy is stuck with no way out. His facial expression also shows that he is a bit scared, this creates sympathy for him. In the back ground we can only just make out Jason and the way he is sitting shows us that he is a cocky character and that he is relaxed doing what he is doing or about to do.

This shot is of Jason beating up a guy at a fish place, from this we can tell that the victim has done something wrong in the past and that Jason is getting his revenge. Also there is a lot of on lookers in the shot which shows that Jason doesn’t care about witnesses and that he is fearless and used to being violent. The setting is not a very glamorous place and is a factory so this again shows that status class.

The shot where that kidnapped has just been released onto the marshes again has a vanishing point and the colour of the mise-en-scene are all greys, dirty greens and black on the mans suit this signifies that nothing good will come to the man now as he has been left. Also there is nothing else in the shot apart from him and the marshland this connotes the feeling of being alone and lost.

The lion in this shot symbolises Jason because they are both gold and Jason probably thinks of himself as brave and scary like a lion. Jason is stood very bold like and looking at the lion as if he knows it and like it means something to him. Jason shirt is a very loud colour and design showing that he regards himself highly as do lions.
