Point: Walter is passionate with chemistry.
Example/Terminology: We see as he addresses the class we have a mid shot Walter from the students perspective, this allows us to see his expressive body language, the tone of voice reinforces his enthusiasm.
Analysis: The tone of voice he speaks, is quite bright and exciting about teaching Chemistry. The 3 bottles of chemicals in the scene also represent his moods. The bottles are green,blue and red. Red representing his anger, green representing passion ,blue represent his happiness.
Point: He is represented a “poor/weak” teacher. By this I mean he is low in the Hierarchy of characters in the story, he is also struggling financially.
Example/Terminology: He has to work extra time as a shop assistant in a car wash,which shows that he is lacking some money. Furthermore near the end of the clip, the glovebox of his Pontiac Aztec wouldn’t shut, symbolising that his car is in bad condition therefore giving the idea that he is having some financial problems and isn’t able to afford simple things such as fixing a glovebox.
Analysis: The way he dresses, is stale/cold and doesn’t have any color/snap to it, his clothes also looks really old and stained. He is portrayed as someone who doesn’t receive respect from the student. In the clip, it shows the student not paying attention, and doing what they like. It also portrays Walter as a “weak” person, because he is shown to be at a different rank in the Hierarchy than the people around him, possibly at the botto
