The camera movement in the 1945 version starts off at a long shot which shows Pip is on his own to show isolation and that the marsh is very desolate but as he enters the graveyard switches to a close shot to give more detail of the background and Pips expression of the graveyard as it shows he is insecure.
As the Convict grabs Pip it does a close up the whole time to build tension between them both and all the time there is repeated shots of the graveyard to show loneliness.
The camera in the 2000 version starts off with a long shot showing only Pips head in the field which shows loneliness and as he runs it slows down to catch Pips actions as he moves to show fear in Pip and then speeds up and quickly switches to convicts view to show what he can see and hear his heavy breathing.
When the convict has Pip it switch’s so that the convict is above Pip to show power and when it shows Pips face it is above him again to show power and is close up to show the fear of Pip.
The editing in the 1945 always has continuity editing but also uses sound bridges for when they talk to keep the audience awake and alert the whole time and with the 2000 version it uses jump cuts a lot and has close up in the talking to build the tension between characters and always has cross cuts to keep the audience alert.
Some other effects in the 1945 version is the start where it shows the reading of the book great expectations using continuity editing which can show the audience that’s its based on a book and also show that its being told like a story, whilst in the 2000 version it uses slow motion to help show the expression of Pip as he moves to show audience what he feels at the time whilst using MTV-style editing then switches back to normal to keep film going.
For the setting and location of the 1945 version again it starts off with the shot of the book to show its based on a book and then fades into a long shot of the marsh as Pip runs through to show the isolation and as he enters the graveyard it has Gravestones and only dead trees to show the sense of death and loneliness and also the affect of someone could be watching Pip.
The 2000 version has long shot of the field to show there’s nothing else which shows loneliness, whilst in the Graveyard it has close to the ground shots but always getting gravestones in them to show it’s a graveyard in location.
When Pip returns to the house it has a long shot to show the terrible state of the house and as he enters it is gloomy which can show there is not much in the house to look at as it is very poor place.
The 1945 version has gallows in the field which can begin show the sense of death and as he enters the graveyard more death is show as there are gravestone and dead trees with dead leaves on the floor.
The graveyard in the 2000 has props to show death as there are only broken fences in the graveyard and there are many gravestones, as for when Pip returns home there is not much in his house as this shows the audience the poverty of Pip’s sister.
The clothes in the 1945 are very basic for Pip with a scarf and very plain dull clothes and Pip has a dirty face to show he’s not too rich, as for the convict he has much duller and dirty clothes that have rips over them and has a very dirty mouldy face to show he hasn’t got anywhere to live and chains to show he is dangerous.
They also show he’s an escaped convict and his hair is very short and scruffily done which is what many people had done when they were in prison.
In the 2000 version Pip has long hair which shows he hasn’t got money to get it cut, scruffy face and dirty ragged clothes to show he hasn’t got much of a change.
The convict again has short cut hair and a scruffy face, clothes and chains on his ankle to show the character out a lot more.
The blacksmith has dirty scruffy clothes whilst Pips sister has very dull scruffy clothes with only the apron as a bright colour but is not very bright due to dust to show she has been wearing for a long time and been doing the same job for a long time.
The main difference in these films is the colour and this would be due to the age of the films being made as it has no colour in the 1945 one so a lot is black, grey or white and the director has little white to show the gloominess, whilst in the 2000 version there is a bit more variety it is still kept gloomy but has different selection but there is still the greatest similarities of having dull, dark and gloominess through the whole scenes.
My favourite of the two would have to be the 1945 version because it had a much bigger effect compared to the other with the gloominess and death in every scene due to the colours and had a much better explaining scene with Pip and the convict in the graveyard.
