In what ways are "Listen To Britain" and "London Can Take It" different?


Listen To Britain:



  • There's no voice over

  • Wider range of locations

  • Linear structure - more transitions are unexpected

  • Sound collage - it's sound led as there's no commentary

  • Natural ambient sound with the noise, voices and music

  • Diegetic sound all the way through untill the end

London Can Take It:



  • Factual footage, although some of the scenes might have been staged

  • Diegetic sound all the way through apart from the commentary and music at very end

  • Voice over - done by Quentin Reynolds

  • Images provide us with the truth which the commentary confirms

  • Linear narrative/structure
