10 D: Q.3 CUFFS

How far does the extract try to create a sense that it is portraying 'real life'?
  • In your answer, you should: analyse aspects of the extract giving detailed examples 
  • judge how far these aspects create a sense of watching 'real life'

Throughout the TV show "Cuffs" real life is portrayed in numerous areas. To begin with, there is no altered light within the entire series. The first scene we see begins with a cloudy sky, immediately you get a sense of realism as it shows that England isn't very sunny place. The camera bobs as Ryan walks onto the beach, Making you feel like you are there watching him. Ryan walks onto the beach observing the naturalist beach sign. The sign is aged and defaced, again giving a feel of that life in this world(the world of Cuffs) is not all sunshine and happiness.

  1. Mark 7 out of 15. You are getting there but should write more!.
    1.The lighting looks realistic / natural.
    2. What about locations? Locations such as the shopping centre are naturalistic.
    3. You are right that hand-held suggests documentary realism.
    4.The 'cinematic' shots such as the aerial shot of the car chase might detract from the realism by drawing attention to themselves.
    5. The pairing of old hand and rookie meets audience expectations for the genre.
