Clip Analysis
• Costume: sci-fi sort off clothing, some with dark colours some brighter than others
• Dialogue: the dialogue was very worried and quite excitable for the two Jedi and the sith
• Lighting: was quite dark at first showing a lot of death and mystery in the villain character but
as it went on there was then fire with quite natural colours of red and orange showing death
and destruction
• Camerawork: there were more close ups on the Jedi than there were for darth Vader
• Music: the music was the original theme for the empire so it was quite sinister
• Colour: the colouring of the characters were at first bright for the two Jedi knights and then It
started to go darker when darth Vader appeared which was because he was wearing all black
