2. This screenshot is an extreme close up, in this event its an extreme close up
of a present. This shows that the present has a meaning and is then the main
focus of the next part of the film.
3. This is a screenshot of a close up. This close up is the first character we see
starring in the film, a little girl. This is give us a feeling the films telling us this
character “a girl” plays an important role in the plot of the film.
4. This is a screenshot of a medium shot. This shots established the setting
costumes and mood. In this situation there's a confrontation, this shows us
and helps us understand the emotion of the characters as you can see seems
particularly angered.
5. This is a screenshot of a long shot. This shots established yet again the
setting costumes and mood and body language of a character. In this
situation the character has been left standing with the present he took so
much pride in presenting, this shot helps us understand his emotion we can
see this in his body language and face expression and come to a conclusion
he's not particular happy in comparison to the other characters in the
background who seem to be involved and enjoying themselves in the hustle
and bustle of the party of which we could make out is on by the setting and
the prop (present).
6. This is a screenshot of a extreme long shot. This shots shows yet again
another establishing shot showing us most of the landscape around a
character. This again helps us understand the setting and in this circumstance
gives us a understand that the character is on their way somewhere.
7. This is a screenshot of a track/tracking shot. This shots focuses on the
characters movement, this can emphasis their emotion whether they're
enthusiastic or not. In this particular shot we see the excitement by the girls
movement as we see her run towards the horse (a present) in the background
of the shot.
8. This is a screenshot of a pan shot. This shots focuses on the characters
movement, keeping them in the center of the shot establishing them as the
main objective of the shot, this shot also shows the setting and body language
of the character. In this particular scene we see the character looks quiet
dominant and disobedient in the manor he is walking, which may show he's in
a place where he isn't particular welcome or has great discomfort being.
9. This is a screenshot of a tilt shot. This shots focuses on the character
emphasizes them, in relation to for instance their height, strength and
dominance. In this specific scene we see the character looks dominant in
comparison to the other character in the shot in terms of height this could be a
metaphor for the strength of the bigger character showing that they're strong.
10. This is a screenshot of a zoom shot.
This shots focuses on and
emphasizes a character or an object
in shot. In a zoomed shots we can
generate emotion from someone's
body language or the object itself. In
this circumstance we have a shot
zooming into a photo of a girl. This is
also a P.O.V of an character, with
these both paired this is quite an
emotive scene…
..giving us a understand on just how
the character is feeling and how the
object in shot motivates that emotion
of the character, he is almost
reminiscing his daughters youth.
11. This is a screenshot of a cutting shot, cutting shots are used to establish
collaborative action happening whether in the same place (scene) or separate
locations. They are used to exaggerate the action and can transact slowly or of
a faster more dramatic speed.
12. This is a screenshot of a example of an diegetic sounds. Diegetic sounds are
sounds in which the character is intended to and can hear. In this circumstance
the diegetic sounds is the shutting of the car door as you can see in the shot.
13. This is a screenshot of a example of
an non-diegetic sounds. Non-
Diegetic sounds are sounds in which
the character isn't intended to and
cannot hear. In this circumstance the
diegetic sounds is the background
music which pairs with the emotional
scene where we can see he is
reminiscing times with his daughter.
The use of the background music
emphasizes the emotion within the
scene, and gives us a sense of how
the character is feeling.
14. What is in the shot, the would include props, costume, lighting, setting, décor,
body language and movement.
15. This screenshot shows a particular prop movie. Props can communicate with
the audience, in the event the present portrays itself as something important,
we see this the way its handled with care and how he is protective over it (in
the screenshot) also by the amount of time it features in various shot and
finally how its paired with the character emotion/action we see it has
provoked a specific characters emotion.
16. This is screenshots of various
characters in costume. Costume is
used to split different characters apart,
in this circumstance the difference
between the costume illustrates the
characters wealth, mood, and their
position they're in.
17. This screenshot shows the first setting of the movie. As you can the house in
the background of the image is the setting of the next actions that occur in the
film. We can see its pleasant which gives us an rough idea of what wouldn’t
occur e.g. violence, threats or horror.
18. This screenshot shows a shot of decor. As you can see, a normal sales man,
who sells phones, plasmas and laptops in particular as you can see by the
décor plotted around the room this helps us understand the setting as an
audience. Also this amplifies the mood of the scene, we sense a particular
vibrancy within this shot.
19. This screenshot show the body language of the character. As you can see
from the dull expression the character in the shot isn't particularly pleased
with what he has seen, this gives us the feeling of the character as an
audience.
