How does the director 'Peaky Blinders' use camera angles and mise ea scene to entablish expectation and character?


In this picture the camera angle is a Low Shot,which also includes a quirky angle to the feet of the characters.Basically, the protagonist of the image are feet. They're disturbing the peace on the calmed puddle and splashing around;this reforces the power of the characters and could be interpreted as a metaphor of causing destrution.
Also, their Shoes are pretty formal shoes and that signify the sense of brutal, making it look like it is a uniform. The characters block the light and cover all the scene making it dark.This could be a metaphor of their wickedness.

In this picture the camera angle is a Mid Shot in wich the characters walk together in slow motion wildly but keeping pretending some order among them.
They pay no attention around them and they don't look away from the front, as if they had a goal to achieve.Showing fire on the background cannotes their power and increase the sense of danger and their hellishness.Also power of the fire is not powerful enough to disturb the calm and concentration of the characters.Their wearing similiar costumes which signify gang culture.




In this picture the camera angle is an upside down Mid shot and the scene is slightly blurred, like a mist.The characters are face down and it can not distinguish their faces;these two factors increase the sense of mystery.There is a very dark background except for the middle of the scene where´s a sky and the characters gradually go covering it bringing with them the darkness.Also,presense of Fire in the scene can be a metaphor of hell.
