Mystery Code or Enigma
We used this as he's at the police station in an interview room however the audience doesn't know why or what for. It becomes resolved later during the narrative as he's let out and is not charged as they don't have any evidence.
Semic Code
The police interviewer suggests a crime has happened.
Hoodies and tracksuits suggest gangs and violence and again crime.
The skimpy clothes and girls standing on the corner suggested prostitution.
Flats and corner shops suggested council estates.
Strauss- Binary Opposites
Justice Vs Injustice
The guy is breaking out against the law and committing a criminal offence and the police are trying to catch him.
Cultural Code
People perceive council estates nowadays to consist of stealing, police, violence and gangs which we portrayed in our product for the audience to understand what's going on and to set the scene.
The man who steals where's a hoody and many people relate together hoodies and crime and violence so the audience assume he is bad and is up to no good committing crimes.
The gangs provide an insight into the narrative being a lot about crime so the audience can understand the relevance of the police interview.

Preparation= police interviewer suggesting the guy is a criminal or has done something wrong
Complication= he's stolen and has been taken to the police station
Transference= they don't have evidence so let him go
Struggle= there is a gang collision causing fear and violence, he carries on stealing to survive
Return= still stealing to survive and going uncaught
Recognition= we were contradictory against this as he still gets away from justice and is able to still steal.
