ZEN ANALYSIS


9/09/14 |  RESEARCH | TV FILM OPENING ANALYSIS

We watched the opening to a BBC Drama called Zen. It was obvious that this was a crime drama because it efficiently establishes its genre, locations, themes and tone right from the start of the program.

The crime genre is established through the iconography including guns, other firearms, and the position of the ‘Questura’, the police headquarters.


Italianicity is conveyed through repeated pictures on the screen with a wash of the colours of the Italian flag: red, white, green.
