1) What Media Language have you used in your title sequence and how do they follow the codes and conventions of this element of a TV Drama?
In the first clip used on our title sequence, we have used non-digetic sound. This is because it is when the theme tune starts playing, and so we have used the non-digetic sound effect as the instruments creating the music cannot be seen on screen.
The editing technique we have chosen at the start of the next clip that features, is slow motion editing. This is to add drama into the shot, as we see a police badge falling in slow motion into a dark back ground. Along with this eerie shot comes more non-digetic music, of a piano playing 'mysterious' and eerie music.
Next we have used an establishing shot of a public lake with the sun rising behind it. The establishing shot allows the audience to see a fairly isolated lake, but doesn't focus on any particular feature in the shot. Not only does this make the audience question how that scene may have some significance, but it also gives them an idea that it is a main part in the events and therefore the programme.
Another Establishing shot is used in the fourth clip, as we are shown around a room with a police vest in. This gives the audience a short introduction into the main characters house, and allows them to get a rough idea of her job and a very small representation of her lifestyle. Because the shot then zooms into a nearby notice board, we can see that she is fairly organised.
