2. The 3 Main Scenes
The 3 main scenes I chose to do is...
The Intro
The safe area
The endings

3. The Micro

4. How they are different
Dawn of the dead is based in America in a small state
while Shawn of the dead is based in a small London
town. most people in London are lazy so the zombies
in the film reflect on that by the way they act. there
slow and cant run while Americans usually keep fit
and so the zombies can run faster and have greater
strength.

5. Set design
Both films have a simple to the point set design. there
isn't really much exploration in the sets of both films.
one is basted in a mall while the other is a small pub.
there is some relation because in both films each
person that is shown all knows where the going. The
area as well that the film is based on also reflects on
where they are going. Dawn of the Dead uses a local
shopping centre whilst Shawn of the Dead only uses
a small local town with one shop and one pub.

6. Characters
The characters in both films personalities are all
completely different. Dawn of the Dead’s
characters are serious and terrified whilst
Shawn of the Dead’s characters are clueless
and have no clue what's going on and don’t
really care about what to do after they get to
where they need to get to.

7. Use of Camera shots
Dawn of the Dead uses a lot of close ups, wide angles
and many other shots. Shawn of the Dead uses a few
special camera shots. they use a few close ups but
only when there is a tense moment. Shawn of the
Dead uses a lot of jump cuts and also moments when
the camera will elevate at a moment when it shows
us what's on the other side of a fence. Also in dawn
of the Dead a good camera shot is when the camera
is looking down a telescope and we can see what the
actor is seeing.

8. Sound Effects/Special Effects
Most sound effects in Dawn of the Dead are mostly gun
shots or a rusty chain saw. In Shawn of the Dead
there is only one part where gun shots are being
used or when a car is speeding off.
The special effects that are used if Shawn of the Dead is
when a Molotov Cocktail is set of on the bar counter
and a fire is set off. In Dawn of the Dead there is a
moment when a man is being dragged and firing
shots at running zombies as well as how there frown
back after every shot.

10. Narrative
The narrative that is in Shaun of the dead shows how Shaun's character is
this lazy Londoner who has no skills in any areas of work. He doesn’t see
much in the world and spends most of his like looking after his best friend
Ed and his ex-girlfriend Liz. He develops leadership and becomes a more
action basted hero.
In dawn of the dead Ana is already in society a hero. She's a doctor and
has a life a husband. She meets a bunch of new people and becomes the
doctor of the group. She's quiet a quiet person and just looks out for
people. She makes a few decisions but other then that she has no real
say in what's going to happen. She also always show sympathy to any of
the other survivors and also courage when it comes to saving them. In
the end she learns not to fear the zombies and learns how to
communicate with the group (fighting, scavenging, healing)
