4. Narrative Structure
Beginning: They had a lot of interviews to introduce
the documentary, which is different form vox pops.
Middle: Talking about the Pentagon, which is different
to all the other documentaries I've watched, as they
only focus on the Twin Towers.
End: Talking about terrorism and how it moves from
USA to Pakistan. They also ended the documentary
with the quote "Bin Laden may be dead but Pakistan
is far from well" to make the spectator feel emotion
towards the people of Pakistan
5. Camerawork
The camera pans to make the audience
look away from the ambulance.
It zooms in on the bombing a lot, for cut
aways
The close up of the dead bodies makes
the spectator feel emotion towards the
situation
6. Mise-En-Scene
The interviewees were men in suits, to
show their importance
When Barack Obama stands in front of
the red carpet, you can see USA flags
and chandeliers, so that the audience
will know that he has a high status in
America.
7. Sound
They used background music all the way
through the documentary and the music
increases whenever the audience are
shown something bad
They also use the Voice of God
throughout the film, to educate the
audience on what is happening
8. Editing
Each scene faded to white
They used slow motion for the fighting to
make the film more emotive
They used green screens for the
interviews
9. Archive Material
Video of the twin towers falling down at
the end was to make the documentary
seem more real and emotive
There were videos of the bombing and
dead bodies
They have clips of the White House
10. Graphics
They had the names and jobs at the
bottom of the screen, for each interview
