The laboratory(csi) Typical in some crime dramas rather than other e.g. csi it involves chemcial tubes and clases, lab coats, goggles, test tubes, photos, documents, laptops......... It plays a big part in csi due to the fact the loction of the headquaters are located here.
Interrigation scene= Tape, two chairs, two or 3 detectives, class of water, cornored of room( small ) one way mirrors including police and detectives in the background. Have pictures of the crime scene.
Eureka monemnt= camera would pan around the area which is( in some cases in shallow depth of focus/field.If this was the case then the the depth of field would instaintly change back. ) the room is usally in a police station around an occasionally full office full of desks with papers, pens, case files. The interrigation scene really helps us get to know a character more in depth and helps us revial their weaker side.
Inital crime investigation= Usually taken place with many detectives. Includes whitboards with pictures of victims or possible allies. Lots of officers and desks and reports and coffie etc..... This scene is important because we get to have an insight on how the police work.
The arrest/confession= Usally alot of cops near by or if its not a buddy cop show then it will just be the one dectective e.g. luther. Sometimes invovles a 'dash' moment. Usually alot of police cars occasionaly in the dark with the lights on. Occasionaly cordoned off areas. This scene is important to the end of the scene seeing as it raps up the story, case solved.
Crime flashback= A montage or flashback of important moments of the crime. These scenes will involve the typical stuff such as blood, knifes, guns, the victim in a pretty bad state or dead. Could be outside or inside. These are improtant because they add to are knowladge what happens whislt hiding it from the characters. Makeing us feel more invovled and smarter than the characters themselfs.
The 'dash'= Fast panning of camera sometimes done down alley ways or busy streets to hide the crimnal from everyone else to make the dash scene more intesne to find him or her involved in the chase. This scene adds a more adventours outlook on the show, keeping us ingaged.
The notification of kin( telling the of family memeber once you have died )= can be at the victims home. Never much going on usually a ordinary family enviroment, dark lighting with the occasional light around. This scene helps add more vairaty ( shock and confusion/ pull at the heartstrings. )
The autospy= Dead bodies, labcoats with sciencetists investigation, see through whiteboards with diagrams of dna etc... microscopes, scapels, laptops computers. This scene is much loved by csi fans. Helping us understand what actually happens in the world of forensic science.
Press conference= minor group of detectives, papers/pens, tap recorders, news reporters, family asking for help, grieivng familes. This scene( like the scene above ) helps us understand what he police force do behind possibly closed doors.

What I hae been watching
(Luther episode 2 season 1)In this episode luther likes to think he is somewhat of a devil in disguise due to the links with hell and the bad e.g. luther refers to his number as 666. Never seems to act in a somewhat posotive attiutude. Although this is true he Seems to wonder about death and the possiblity of leaving the world( in a negatie manner wondering if he is sernigifcant.) yet despite his negatiity does not give the impression of feeling down on his guard and seems to be alert 24/7( until he is angry and thereby cares only about what needs to be done not himself.) Zoey seems to be his one weakness(ex wife) The new anti protagionist( not alice ) has started to kill officers since he was almost arrested himself. Seems to be master of disguise.Formar moral mariene, we later see how he is mastered in guns due to learning this. Seems to be doing the killings for his dad in revenge for what the goverment has done. Got conficted for the wrong thing(named terry lynch) Luther later admits he is afraid of alice. Luther is not ashamed to get himself out there to maker poeple know he is right so after he speaks with his father he then decides to get himself heard over tv makeing him enemy number 1 whislt makeing his zooey feel in constant danger. leading to alice appearing in her house and asking countless questions. Leaving her shocked and confused. We start to see that he might have a deathwish as we see him venture alone into owens( enemy ) flat by his self. Revealing that his dad is not who he seems to be, revealing luthers softer side and we see him as a lower level to owen when the camra pans down on him. We start to see owen is turning well 'nuts' starting to play games with luther risking his own life to feel like his victim and to feel less like his dad. Ending with luther fighting him to the ground. This episode makes us think how longer can he last and how longer will it be before luther is as dereanged as owen.

What i watched on monday (CSI New York)
CSI New York( episode 21 seasons 3 )
Like any other CSI the show brings you straight into the action. In this episode we find one murdered woman and then suddenly a man, who is being hunted by who yet to be confirmed. It ( like CSI Miami ) leaves us gessing/ wondering what, why, who , how etc... Keeping to its restrictive narrative setting.....
The show still keeps its professionals. The detectives, paramedics, cops and so on....And are main professional today is Gary Sinise( star of the adaption of mice and men )who plays Detective Mac Taylor. He keeps to the stereotype of his cop. Always the hero, fights for justice yet still does not give of the impression that he is like horatio( detective from csi miami )He does not wear the glasses... implicating hes not so sly and does not hide his emotions behind his glasses, showing he could be more foward and more in touch with his feelings.
Onto the plot....
As we get into the drama we see a that the victim( woman ) has had her eyelids removed, clear cut( must of been done by someone who is effective with a knife ) we also find out she was part of a unique group of people who meet by unlocking a chain( some sought of match makeing place? ) We also find out are male victim is now in hospital with his dada confessing he did hang around with the 'wrong sought of people'and had to go to rehab for takeing drugs. But why is he hunted down? We will find out later.
The setting of the show is glamerous new york looking over the skyline everytime after the break. Giving us a lovely view of the city. Depicting that the areas not all as safe as you might of thought.
The show comes back to a previous villian now turned architect refered to as dobson.Who likes to tease are hero detective. Leading onto the fact he is careless and evil. It seems like he knows that are hero knows he is a murder suspect yet he still plays with him. Teases him. Seems to like the thrill of the chase.
The foresnic scientists discover are male victim has been posioned with some sought of pellet, which must of been shot from something to the impact of the posion. Which then they lead back to the suspect who reportidly had a fight with are victim, a russian cafe owner? Revealing that some evidence is from the carnival. Learning are male victim ( scott ) wants to sell the park leading to another bust up. Scotts brother jesse is brang into the occasion when he is mentioned to be the leader of the arcade, learning that despite being older is not head of the carnival and it run by his brother.
The case of the dead girl find lauren hennings murder matches the murder of the architect later on and believe that it is him. The parents of a victim called katy is being interigated, this scene is a tug of the heartstrings scene, leaading to her crying and us feeling sorry.
The audiance of this show have to be smart. Meaning that you would have to be of a social grade of ABC1.This is because the smarter people would like to learn out who did what by themselfs( a reason why the narrative is restrictive ) and also theres so much one person can catch up on... someone who prefers the action of dramas would not be able to keep up without the constant gun firing. Plus the terms are technoicall and the drama is slower pace than most. Leaving us to think. study. learn.
They later find a worker of a moving company. Whos seamen seems to match that of the seamen found on the blanket used to cover the body of the victim. Another red herring is deteced. A roller skater who is believed to be put up by jesse to shoot scott with the posion.
The weddington. The key to why mold and algi is located on are female victims body. The place where the blanket used to wrap her up was located. The place that has discovered a bloodied bed where they believe she was held.Until we see a girl called katy. Related to the murder investigation we discovered earlier. We also find out that are recurring character( the architect) is the killer. This then leads into a chace scene. The camras are constantly panning with the action until dobson is located on the roof. He then commits suicide. Or does he? Does he gets pushed? Watch to find out.

What i watched on Thursday(Inside Men)
BBC1 Thursday 2/2/2012
Inside Men
Today i watched Inside Men. A new TV crime drama/thriller from ENGLAND. The drama invovles a trio of workers working in a bank who have to face a difficult situation when a unite of armed robbers invade the bank, with the cash strapped trio uniting to solve this problem.
The drama is set in gritty,rural england based around a financial couting house( which is ironic seeing as they are all in need to find some cash, which then causes the inccident of money being stolen by two of the men chris and marcus.) The show starts with all guns blazing leaving the narrative as restricitive. We dont know who the people are, we dont know the setting BUT we get a look at are 3 characters. All in buisness dress, leaving us to think they are business men. But we later see that maybe there buisness dress is not there only connection as we see in a flashback to january that the 3 are situated in a problem when marcus( the muscle ) has been stealing money for the sake of it.
As we get more involved with the drama we see that the narrative has started of with an distruption before its resolution and eqiuilibrium. Leavving the narrative that leads your narrative into a spiral and leaving you thinking this thinking that. Yet the story later on is all set as a flashback. Helping us construct this restricitive narrative. But you cannot watch one episode to get fully involved, it will have to be watched in all its 4 parts every thursdays. Despite us getting an insight that they are not very trutworthy, unloyal, sneeky we see that they are more of anti heroes- we will get to love them yet they will betray justice to get what they want. It seems that the characters are symbiotic( meaning they work with eachover to safe the other ) but we see that maybe this isnt prehaps the situation we expected.
This show is nothing like sherlock or csi. It does not relie of brain or power alone to fight the crime, its a mixture of both.
