Q4) How are the Paralympic games represented as a much anticipated sporting event?
The shots of the athletes training created a huge build up for the coming events of the Paralympics. It displays the progress that has occured over the period of time it has taken athletes to get to this tagte of their career. This creates anticipation as it allows viewers to see the Paralympics games as something to look forward to and be keen to watch the results of all the progress made. The audience can therefore then gain respect for the athletes as they watch the events prior to the final event.
The use of presenting the crowd and supporters allows for the audience to see the excitement that has been built up by others for this event which therefore encourages them to have the same positive excitement for the upcoming games to occur. The celebration is a positive association made with the actual event itself and the uproar that happens within the clip emphasises how important the event actually is.
The fact that the olympic stadium is being promoted within the clip also can cause the viewers to appreciate the new building being used once again for the Paralympics. It shows that more events will occur in this building which allows for the audience to appreciate the process of building the stadium for the purpose of this event and this builds up even more anticipation as the building is then being put to good use,
The fast paced nature of the clip being displayed also contributes to the anticipation of the event as it is packed full of action codes. Starting with the slow rolling of the basketball and then progressing into a quicker atmosphere in a busy environment. This gradual speeding up occurs within a matter of seconds, starting off slow and then becoming quicker as the clip progresses.
