textual analysis


  The use of the non-diegetic  sound such as sirens and action style music connotes entertainment and creates Engima codes within the text.
-          The significance of this connotation is that it keeps that audience attracted to the program because they are interested in finding out what is going to happen.
-          There are a range of non verbal symbols in the text. The main symbol is the police uniform that is worn by the Police. This uniform symbolises strength, power, safety and unity and is easily recognisable.
-          The facial expressions used within this text mainly smiles and showing a different (real/unreal) representation that we as the public are not used to seeing.-          The soundtrack of this text is important and is usually the same between other police factual programs. The soundtrack is often high tempo and is composed around a siren which is symbiotically a symbol representing the police on an international scale.-          These programs also have a running commentary throughout the program which is used to explain situations from the point of view of the police.-          This text is reminiscent of the expository documentary style due to the styles and conventions shared. Also the use of the hand held camera is used to add a sense of realism to the text which therefore adds a thrill unattainable whilst watching fiction programs.-          The main colours associated with this text are blue red yellow and black, all colours that are easily relatable to the police. These colours often connote danger and emergency which makes this text more action packed. -          The narrative is structured very easily and is almost identical to the theory of narrative by the theorist Todorov.-          First there is an equilibrium which is maintained by the patrol of the police. There is then a disturbance often associated with a criminal which throws the narrative into disequilibrium and the criminal is then dealt with swiftly by the police restoring equilibrium.-          The audience is positioned behind the police. This could be a subliminal message reminding the audience that they are being protected by the police and that they are on the front line of crime.-          The way that heroes and villains are created can be linked back to Propps theory of characters. The heroes are created by Analysis of ‘Road Wars’-          The use of the non-diegetic  sound such as sirens and action style music connotes entertainment and creates Engima codes within the text.

-          The way that heroes and villains are created can be linked back to Propps theory of characters. The heroes are created by allowing them to have  personality and speak there side of the story whilst the villans are created by labelling theory and sterotypes as suggested by Perkins
-          Identication is employed via the use of jokes and ideologies that are portrayed by the police (real/unreal)
-          This program belongs to the documentary/reality tv genre. It is a hybrid genre because the codes and conventions of both can be found easily within this text.
