This photo is a mid-shot, eye-level photo of my friend Elliott in 6th grade on the playground. The photograph is tinted in a sepia tone. In the background, you can the basketball court, and a bunch of kids having fun. Elliott is positioned at the left of the shot, so that on the right side you can see kids running around. However he is close enough to be considered in the foreground, and the subject of the photo.
In the photo, another person named Evan is trying to strangle Elliott-that is why his tongue is sticking out. The foreground strangling gives a splendid contrast to the happy scene of children playing in the background. Because the two scenes are such different themes, it would be interesting to put in a cutaway to the children playing with a voiceover of the strangling, like murder among paradise, like nothing is really what it seems. Misdeeds lurk among peace. The contrast would make the whole scene very dramatic.

i hope you realize we only had to print out and turn in our analysis. or at least that's what i thought.
