Tv Drama Textual Analysis - The Walking Dead
Fantasy genre shown by the zombies as it is not real.
Its set in a prison and you can tell this because of the building itself and the prisoners/zombies inside.
The facial expression on the woman is angry and this shows she is a woman who is ready to kill. This indicates she is a strong woman who seems to have lost her innocence along the way. Her expression is not hesitant showing she has killed before and it doesn't bother her.
The woman's hair is spread out behind her which shows the scene is in fast motion. Her dark hair signifies that she is a strong and dark woman herself.
The different clothing of the prisoners/zombies and the group of fighters shows the separation between both parties. This helps to identify that if she is killing one person in the blue then she is likely to help kill all the others too. The womans clothes are dirty and messy which indicates she is not too bothered about her appearance and that she may not have the items necessary to clean herself up, also indicating she may be homeless. Her dark clothing may show that she has a dark personality, a killer, as shown in this image.
There is a shallow depth of field which places the zombie and the woman at the front of the image, therefore making them the centre of attention.
In this image women seem to be portrayed as strong and independent. You can tell this as she is in front of the others and is ready to kill.
