Set piece

Laboratory scene

 The protagonist usually looks through a microscope or dusts an item for prints. It gives the viewer the impression that the user of the equipment is well educated it helps to develop the character also it could find evidence that could add extra suspects or could remove them. The most iconic items for a laboratory would be a microscope, test tube mixer. Language used would include fingerprints, DNA, fibre, hair techniqual words.

Interrogation scene
The detective has a suspect in empty room some heroins will use a form or torture or threats, mabye the sterotypical good cop bad cop. Usaly the suspect is sitting there the detective walks in and starts a tape recorder. Finds infromation and devolpes the detective and the suspect. Iconography would be the empty room with a 1 way mirror the tape recorder next to the wall on the table and 2 chairs. language used would be very limited and the question if a bad cop could be made to manipulate the suspect into saying something bad evidence, "your hair" "your dna".

 Eureka moment
Usally has a pan view of the detective panning around his head usaly has the detective finding some evidence that alows him/her to figure out how the crime was comited and who. Alows the plot to move onto the next scene usaly going after the villian. Hand infront of mouth thinking, and after the eureka moment the detective speeds up almost runs. language " wait i've got it! " " it was " "alibi".

Typical scenes/ charcters

LOTS of crime scene police tape
lots of people Dressed in the white paper overalls
lots of police
guns
murder
flashback of the murder
semi restrictive narrative where we sorta know who did it but you didn't see them kill the person

Sherlock watched

Saw Sherlock season 2 episode 3 great episode
 main character :

Sherlock Holmes a quirky detective
John Watson Sherlocks side kick
James Moriarty the villain


Moriarty was releases by Sherlocks brother from prison as they couldn't get them to tell them a code that could hack anything. Sherlock was setup by moriarty to look like a fraud, Moriarty catches Sherlock out when they meet on the roof of a hospital he tells him that he has hired a gang of murders that have been told to kill all of his loved people and the people he is associated with.and if he doesn't jump of the building. Sherlock starts to do what he does best tries to get in Moriarty head to get the phone numbers for the murders to call them off. Moriarty shoots himself in the head. Sherlock makes John belive Moriarty then jumps. as John runs to Sherlocks body he is knocked over by a cyclist. Sherlock is in a pool of blood and is taken away on a hospital bed. Last scene John is talking to Sherlocks grave then it shows John from another angle then zooms out to show Sherlock watching John.

how i think he survived:
as Sherlock jumped there was a rubbish van in front of him i think he landed in that then jumped to the floor. in the previous episode they dealt with a drug that caused hallucination i think the cyclist drugged John as he was knocked over.

stereotypes of crime drama that were seen:

professionals the police that came after Sherlock
guns
stereotypical gangster (skin head with lots of tattoos sleeveless top )
the hero and villain (Sherlock is represented as a anti hero and a hero)
