Movie Clips

(29/09/15)

We watched a clip from an action movie which featured an aggressive interrogation between two detectives and an accountant.  The first shot we see is a continuous shot showing us how the detectives walk into the room showing them as powerful before we even heard them speak. The director used multiple camera angles in the clip to express all the emotions in the room. The camera switched from face to face pausing for just a second to allow the audience time to think about how the characters may be feeling.

 We also learned how directors use different shots and combine them into one to make a whole scene. We looked at a car chase clip and analysed how the director used different angles to portray how the situation looked from the characters perspective, and how the sounds also make the scene feel different by rapidly changing the pace of music at different times.
