I just need some people to bounce this off.

Texts:
Crucible - A. Miller
Lyrics of "Not One Of Us"- Peter Gabriel
Cartoon "Globalization" - Leunig
Episode 8 of Life on Mars(BBC) 2007- Directed by Matthew Graham and Tony Jordan
Links between texts:
The Crucible:
Includes points 1->4. Point one initially demonstrated by John Proctor, in that he belongs to the community via land and respect.
Point two is shown through Reverend Paris, who doesn't belong in the rural community because of his education and where he is from. He also demostrates point three to a certain degree.
Point three is clearly shown through Abigail, Tituba and Betty Paris. All who name names in order to belong to the community.
Point four is shown through Abigail, where she gains enormous power over the community because she belongs to a select group, which grants her the ability to name names.
Not one of Us:
Includes points 2->4
Point two is shown via the target being told that they don't belong, and is repeatedly told that they aren't "One of Us".
Point 3 is shown via the lyric "You may look like we do Talk like we do". They have tried to assimilate but they still don't belong.
Point 4 is shown via the artist's ability to state that the target doesn't belong
Globalization:
Points 1,2 &4
In this cartoon, Leunig shows what happens when you belong to everything. You belong to nothing.
LoM(BBC)
Points 1->3
Shown via Sam wanting to return to where he belongs, and the power he then gains.
Techniques:
The Crucible
*Dramatic Irony: We know that Abigail isn't as innocent as the town thinks she is. Hales realization that it is all over the top. A. Millers commentry on the Communist witch hunts.
* Language: Shows us to what group the person belongs to and the time that they inhabit.
*Stage Directions: Helps emphasize which people belong and the ones that don't
Not One Of Us:
*Repeatition. Emphasizes that an outsider doesn't belong.
*Simile "It is only water in a strangers tear". That outsiders don't matter. That they don't cry real tears.
*Cliche "There's safety in numbers When you learn to divide" That being in a group grants power and allows you to single out others.
Globalization:
*Posture. The main figure is slumped against a wall with only his head touching the wall, signifying that he has given up.
*Text. Explains the figures ideas of belonging.
*Forgrounding, shows that the main figure doesn't belong
LoM:
*Mise-en-scene. Through the use of clothing and props, it shows where Sam Tyler really belongs.
*Camera Angles. The high shot before his navarda moment disempowers him, then the low shot afterwards empowers him and strengthen the sense of his belonging.
*Monolog. Show clearly what Tyler is thinking in regards to what he is going to do in regards to trying to belong.
Please if anyone could C&C this outline it would be greatly appreciated, along with any tips or pointers.
