The piece was based on domestic violent. The group used four still images. The first still image showed a happy family where the dad was in the middle with his right hand on the mum’s shoulder this showed me that even though they acted like a happy family his right hand on his wife’ shoulder showed me that he was always violent and he was forcing her to do what he wanted, also the dad was in the middle which was a good use of level because it showed me that he was the one in control and he had power over the family. In the first image the grandparents were behind the dad with sad faces on which showed me that they weren’t happy about their daughter marrying a horrible man and it also showed that they couldn’t do anything about it because they were standing behind him, the dad had the power. On the second image it showed the dad attacking his wife and the rest of the family with sad faces, this showed me that the dad was not nice to his wife and the family knew it but they just couldn’t do anything about it but just watch in sadness. The third image showed the dad putting on a normal face with the rest of the family putting a sad which showed that the dad didn’t care about him hurting his wife and it also showed that the rest of the family were powerless. The last image was the same as the first one and this showed me that it symbolised the mum being trapped because she can’t rescue herself from running through the routine of her acting like a happy family but really she is not happy. All the characters had a thought in the head after the 4th still image which showed me how they felt about the situation they were in.

Body language when the dad had is right hand on his wife’s shoulder on the first and last picture to show the audience he had control and he was forcing his wife to do things. Levels when the grand parents were at the back, the dad in the middle and his wife and kids at the front, which showed that he was the boss, and that ...
