Camera movements and shot to represent age

The clip starts with a dolly shot, this type of camera movement is used so we as the audience can appreciate the men working this shows age as only older men would be working with tools such as hammers and large pieces of wood.

At the beginning of the next scene it starts off with a long shot and pans across the court yard so we know where the girl is, it then goes into a medium long shot to show what she is wearing, she is wearing casual clothes to show that she is a teenager and dresses for comfort instead of practicality.

When the young girl gets into the truck we see a close up of her face she looks confused as to what to do and doesn't know how to drive, this suggests that she is still young. A wide shot of the area suggests that it isn't really an area for teenagers and young people so you can assume that older people live around that location.
Medium long shot shows the old man standing behind the cars that have just crashed, we can see his clothing and this leads us to believe he is a teacher of some sort as his clothes don't match but he is in smart but casual wear. The crash in the foreground of the shot is to maybe represent the conflict between the young and old generations.

The panning motion from the young boy to the man and vice versa shows the height difference and that the man is older and more in control, a close up of the young girl and we are at her eye level to show how vulnerable she is which shows her true age. A two shot shows the older women is being protective over the young girl we can see you cares and has a motherly instinct towards the young girl through her body language and facial features.

A slightly low angle shot shows the men to be more powerful, and although the young girl isn't in the room with them it's seen at her eye level and we see them how she would see them. Still at eye level with the young girl we see he looking up at the man in a way a child would if they were being told off  by a parent.

The next scene is of the girl in her room a tilt is used to revel the note she leaves behind and the magazines on the bed this shows she is girly and still young young as she is reading teenage magazines, there is a pan to show a teddy and another pan ti show pink lights and pictures, there is then a slow zoom onto one of the pictures to show her emotion in this scene, only a young person would feel this way after a petty argument and is slightly over reacting.

The camera then moves outside and tilts upwards the camera being outside makes us feel like an outsider like the young girl does this makes the audience feel sorry for her and we see her as vulnerable. A medium close up of the old women emphasizes the emotions and maternal feeling she has towards the young girl.

Now the young girl has run away we are eye level with the man, the last shot is a close up of the mans face  this highlights his age as we see worry and guilt much like that of a father
