This paper analyzes and interprets the visual communication used to portray the police detectives in the documentary film Uppdrag: Skomakarligan. Four scenes where the police are the main focus and which all have different purposes in the plot of the film are picked out. The four scenes are then studied through a social semiotic method based on Bill Nichols' theories about the documentary voice, and in combination with visual storytelling strategies by Bordwell & Thompson. The filmmaker's power over the image of reality in documentaries is discussed concerning the interpretation that is made. The study results in the police detectives being portrayed as very dedicated to their profession but also shows the human side of them. Filmmaker Hildebrand's fascination with the police detectives, as shown by the narrator, is linked to the result and isn't deemed to be entirely problematic. Media production: In 1975 EMF (Engelholms Musikförening) organized the music festival Musikfesten Tullakrok, and for over 30 years this festival was the highlight of the year for many in Ängelhom. However, in 2008 the festival had to be shut down, but now 16 years later EMF is back and wants to revive Musikfesten Tullakrok for 2024. The purpose of this project was to showcase different members’ perspectives on organizing the music festival 16 years later and provide insight into the history of the festival from 1975 to 2008. A project by Elliot Lauritsen and Ella Hall.
