Ending scene• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b9XBmeA_rM• In the ending scene the dispatcher (Andy) gives his toys (The Heroes) away to a little kid because he is too

old to keep them and play with them.• There is emotion in the scene because the toys have been given away from their first owner and feel sad

but also happy because they have been given to another child, also Andy feels sad too because he is giving away a massive part of his childhood.

• The scene ends with Andy driving off down the road and the toys outside the house with the child he's gave them to.

• In the film the hero is the main two toys Buzz Lightyear and Woody.• The villain in the film is the bear Lots’o who want to keep the toys prisoner in the day care centre.• The dispatcher is Andy because he gives the toys to the little girl.• The helper who gives support to the heroes is all of the other toys.• The editing of the ending scene is good, it is plainly edited with casual jump cuts.• The sound is good because sad music is used to show that Andy will never see them again.

Opening Scene• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOZqIpbIuUg• In the opening scene, Andy is playing with his toys, he stops playing with his toys and then it turns out

what were watching is a recorded video which was recorded from his childhood. Then it switches to the toys in a toy box in Andy's room talking.

• There's emotion in the scene because the toys do not get played with anymore and they have been left in the toy box.

• The scene ends when the toys get two phones and call one phone on another phone to try to get Andy to notice them but it doesn't work.

• In the film the hero(s) are Buzz and Woody.• In the scene the bad guy is Andy because he neglected the toys.• In the film the equilibrium is Andy is young and he plays with his toys, the disequilibrium is that Andy has

grown up and has neglected his toys. The new equilibrium is that Andy has donated them to a day care centre for kids to play with them.

• The colour is very good, light then turns to very dark when they are in the toy box but then when they jump out the lighting is good again.

• In the film there are binary opposites, some example are Toys and Humans, Children and Adults, Inside Society and Outside Society and Weak and Strong.

• In the opening scene the editing is good, jump cuts are used a lot in the first scene, long shots, close ups are all used.
