Camera - Analysing Meaning (Doctor Who shots)

Proxemic codes - distance between/arrangement of characters in the shot - relationship?
All of the characters in the scene are The Doctor, Rory, and the two Amys, and each character has a different relationship between each other person. Rory and Amy are married, therefore very close and hold a close friendship as well as loving each other. Amy is classed as the Doctor's companion, again a close friend, and also a 'sidekick'. Rory is essentially just there because of Amy, however him and The Doctor have also obtained a slight friendship to a certain extent, although there is an element there of rivalry between them, over Amy. This could quite possibly be because she is the only female, and The Doctor as well as Rory maybe attracted to her. The shots we have made definitely represent how much love the married couple have for each other, by arranging them as close together as possible, even though they are both either side of the Tardis door. Most of the shots only include one person, and they mainly swop in shot reverse shot between the 'future Amy' and Rory. 


Who is bigger/smaller, foreground/background?
Throughout each of our shots, we decided that Rory would be the 'bigger' character and the Amy on the other side of the door will be the 'smaller' character. This is because as he is the male in their relationship, he will be seen as the more powerful one and also throughout the clip Amy is definitely portrayed as subordinate, the way she is 'trapped' behind the door. Both of these characters are mainly in the foreground, and this indicates that they are both as important as each other. In our first shot, The Doctor and Rory are in the background, and we chose a long shot for this, as the 'real Amy' is laying on the floor in the foreground.


Are characters facing each other, side by side, in teams?
As we know, the 'real Amy', The Doctor, and Rory are inside of the Tardis. The 'future Amy' is on the outside, the other side of the door, and the characters inside won't let her in, as it will lead to a consequence for the Amy inside. It is clear to the audience that the people inside could be classed as one team, and the Amy outside is on her own. The majority of our shots we have created include her and Rory who is inside, they show them facing each other, as close to either side of the door as possible, which makes the scene very intimate, and proves how close the married couple are, especially as they are both emotional the time.
