The regional representations of Liverpool

Sound

Dark and slow sounding music to create a bad atmosphere - non diagetic

Chimes etc emphasise the religious when in the church

Becomes more fast paced as the action begins

Children screaming suggests a more frantic situation - diagetic

Synchronised sound to emphasise the situation in the scene

Mise en scene

Fairly gloomy lighting to make it more dark

The colours used throughout the scene are more dull - shades of greys and browns - shows run down areas which are very common in liverpool

Worried/Panicked expression on the mans face shows that he may be going through some sort of situation

The furniture used in the scene is high class and posh which emphasises the status and the religious side because the furniture is quite formal

Camera work

Range of camera angles used - through the pane of glass, from down below when in the church - and shots are quick technical - sweeping down from ceiling in the church, reversing backwards through the car, shot reverse shot

Lots of long shots so it is clear to see the setting of the scene

Close ups on the mans face so can clearly see his emotions

Editing

Lot of shots to show the focus of the scene - the crucifix

Close up on his face to emphasise his expression

Short clips next to each other in different places to give the feel of him travelling a long way

Slow motion at the end when he's running to create a dramatic tension
