Analysis of the street

Mes en scene:
The characters in 'the street' are mostly where they belong as in the stereotypes. Such as the mother/ wife is in the kitchen where the usual woman would be. The father/husband is at the building site which is a stereotypical place for a man to work, as it is classed as a masculine job.
The man looks like the stereotypical builder as he is wearing a hard hat, he is the alpha male as a builder is known as a masculine job role. The woman looks like the stereotypical mother or housewife as she is in the kitchen tidying up the bowls.
The clothes of the man in the second part where he is on the building site, he is wearing a hard hat, this shows he is the masculine person in the scene, where as the woman is wearing normal clothing, like the pink top, this may show that she is the feminine person in the scene as she is also at home, which shows she is a housewife.
There isn't much light in the shot which shows it is quite negative, as dark is usually bad and light usually represents heaven and purity. This shot is not well lit, showing there is something bad happening within the scene.
Both the man and the woman's roles seems the normal stereotypical role within a relationship or family, as the man is showing his masculinity through his anger and aggressiveness with his shouting and the woman is more nagging and when the pipe bursts in the kitchen, she shows femininity as she screams and this is normal for normal women.
The man has more power over the woman as he is shouting and being more aggressive, whereas the woman is being more emotional and passive as she is eating her feelings away by stuffing her face with a cake.
The man has a prop of a hammer at the building site, which is usually masculine. The woman is sorting out the bowls in the kitchen, which is mainly a woman thing to tidy stuff within the kitchen.

Camera:
The characters are further apart, because there is tension as they are having an argument, but they are in a close relationship because you wouldn't have such an intense argument with someone that you didn't know.
The man is generally bigger in the shot, which may show he has more power, but they mostly in separate shots which may be because they are equal in power.
Both main characters are sometimes facing each other, but the woman occasionally puts her back towards the man as she wants to ignore him.
when the camera is on the children, it is pointed down towards them in a low angle as it shows they have no power, but for the man it is slightly tilted upwards towards him in a high angle showing he has power, but the woman is mainly at eye line.
There is a close up on the man when he is using the hammer, she could show that he is using his anger on the hammer.
The movement within the scene is mostly fast and shows that there is a lot of anger in it.
The camera is quite smooth as i think it is showing the point of view of the children as they watch the argument.

Editing:
The editing is sort of like an equal conversation, but the woman has more camera time trying to make us feel sympathetic for her.
The differences between the children and the mum and dad arguing as the shots are next to each other, showing that they are mostly calm and do not care, but mum and dad do care as they argue over it.
The editing is cuts to make it faster to go from the woman to the man as at point they overlap each others sentences.
The woman has more time on screen to make the viewer feel sorry for her as the man is constantly shouting at her throughout the scene.
The edits are quick and decisive as it shows there is more tension between the two, more of an intense argument. i think that the man with his anger has motivated the cut because it represents his aggressiveness.

Sound:
The sounds that are associated with the man are more angry shouting and hitting things, because he is more aggressive, more active. whereas the woman is associated with more nagging and whining about things like the stereotype, more passive.
The man represents anger, but the woman represents more sadness as she is sort of eating her feelings away. The sound is created with whats within the shot as the shouting is within the shot in their argument and the sound of the hammer is within the shot too to represent his anger.
The rhythm of the edits is precise with the hammer sound as almost every time he bangs the hammer, the shot is cut to a different angle, a match on action.
This shows that the man is angry with the woman still and that he still needs to express his aggression through something.
The sounds make it seem like the man is in a wide pen space when he is using the hammer as it is echoing, also you hear a train go past which means it is near a train track.When the woman goes to comfort her children, she says it is time for school, which means it is early in the morning.
