How do the character's body postures help to inform you of their statuses?
In the clip, the character Tobey when talking to McAuley had a very different body language to when he was talking to Callie. When he was talking to McAuley he hardly gave him eye contact and was a bit hunched over with his head down, and his arms were by his side. This shows that Tobey was scared of McAuley but wanted to look stung and confident infrot of him, and thats why he didn't not make eye contact and had his arms down by his side so he wouldn't fight with them and look nervous.So from this I can guess that McAuley is a higher status then Tobey. When Tobey was talking to Callie his body language was different, as his back was straight, he wasn't hunched and made clear eye contact with Callie, and the character Callie did the same. I can assume from this that they both are on the same status.
The character Dan seemed to be like Tobey when talking to McAuley, but more nervous. He did not make any eye contact with McAuley and neither Tobey, he also had his head facing downwards the whole time. This tells me that McAuley had a higher stays then Dan as well.
The character McAuley was always upright and made eye contact with Tobey when he was talking to him. This shows that he wasn't afraid and felt confident. So from this i can conclude that Tobey has a lower status then McAuley.
what does it tell you about the type of people they are?
It tells me that the character McAuley is quite powerful and a very scary man, and that if you were to get involved with his business that he runs, you will get in a lot of trouble.
It tells me that the character Tobey is normally not the kind of boy that does things against the law. It tells me that he is very scared to talk to McAuley but feels that he has to and that the only reason he is going to McAuley is to do something that he feels is the right thing to do.
