That Thing... Lara Croft
Analysis
Documentary type
The documentary is a mixed documentary, but it is significantly short. Only having a running time of 10 minutes.
The narrative structure is a closed, non-linear single stranded structure. Focusing on the themes of girls into gaming and Lara Croft's portrayal in gaming.
Camera work
The camerawork follows the conventional interview structure, typically using close up, medium close up and rule of thirds for the interviewee.
A canted angle is used for the laptop interview to show a variety in the interviews.
Mise-en-scene
Green screen is used with some of the games content being played in the background.
The interviewee's face is over the game footage so the game footage is projected over his face.
Sound
Sound includes the interviewee voiceover on cutaways, music from the video game Tomb Raider, fast paced electronic music and Madonna's songs, showing her comparison to Lara Croft as a female icon.
