In class we watched a clip from 'The Breakfast Club' and it was a travelling and arriving clip. in this clip we saw different characters arriving to the main setting (the school). This clip told us a lot about each character without the use of many words but by the use of the mise en scene.
In this clip there were different character which were:
The princess
The princess arrived to the scene in an elegant BMW with her father calling her 'princess' and handing over some shopping bags which we suggest consists of some expensive gifts/clothing, due to the mise en scene I could easily say that she is very middle class who is most probably spoilt.
The brain
the brain joined the scene in an old red car which consisted of 3 characters the brain, the little sister and the mum and each of the characters were squeezed up in the front seats of the car. because of this I can suggest that the mum is a single mum trying to take care of her kids and work but is also relying on her son 'the brain' to do well at school to get a good job in the future and that is why she tells him in this scene to find a way to study as its detention.
The criminal
The criminal arrived to the scene by walking, but as walking across the road instead of looking to see if any cars were coming he decided to walk in front of a moving car which was very close to hitting him, but we didn't get any reaction out of him as most people would react by jumping or freezing of shock. He was wearing a long black trench coat with his head held down.
The basket case
the basket case arrives in an old banger car driven by her mum/dad guessing. with this character she comes across as a very quiet and shy girl just by her actions and clothing. As she goes to approach the driver to say bye the individual swiftly drove away.
The athlete
the athlete joined the scene in a sports car driven by his father. both were wearing sports gear as he was wearing a basketball jacket and the father in a cap which gives us as an audience the impression that they are committed to sports and the son is most probably an athlete and the father wants him to succeed.
This clip was about these 5 students reporting for a Saturday detention at Shemar high school. While not complete strangers each of them comes from a different clique and seem to have nothing in common. They gather in the high school library where they are instructed by the assistant principal
