Answer 1

There is non diegehe sounds for nearly all the - short film, it is usually incidental music that compliments the action on a screen. This music is normally upbeat because adora actions are nearly - almont exaggerated The use of stakie camera angles and a small to medium use of camera shots due to the fact cameras back then rardy moved, so it left little room for camera shoto we know now . such as ban that . The short film was in black and white throughout which clearly show the audience the production in based before teleassion had the ability to process colour - Also the dust and white dureen sucks the audien ie even more into the illusion, There is a caption at 1:34 to replace dialogue in a generic elecment od silent films, it stimulates and replaces the narrahre plot of actions with words which gives the audience a sense of directon.
