STRUCTURE:

WHAT?- the extract uses handheld shots, close- ups and wide established shots

HOW?- the shaky handheld camera during the chase creates a sense of urgency, close ups reveal luther's emotional state, and wide shots show the scale and isolation of the setting

WHY?-  these choices are typical of crime dramas, where realism, suspense and character psychology are emphasised...
