Low-angle shot

all around. A poor shooting percentage may be the results of inferior mechanics or poor vision in general. One basketball coach stated that, “a player who was right handed and left eye dominant, significantly improved his accuracy after moving his shot line from the right to the middle of his body.” There are ways one can train the dominant eye or dominant hand, which ever is prefered. A way to switch a dominant eye is to wear an eyepatch. As this may seem silly, it would work to possible help…

Following the blonde lady through the streets, we are shown a collection of shaky images captured by handheld cameras where the subjects of the shot are somewhat discernible, but the surroundings and location of the shots almost undistinguishable, as if the surroundings of the subject were purposefully smudged to create the unclear images. Four consecutive shots of a pre-dawn steel-blue sky followed, framed by industrial buildings of the city. In contrast to the non-movement of the buildings and…

Wilson). By tracing their acting and relative staging of these two in certain shots, a narrative between them becomes all the more clear, a representative battle of the outspoken against the bullies of the world. Towards the beginning of the film, before Marty gets sent into the past, we get our first look at the two in a rather one-sided argument, following…

Hitchcock’s 1958 film, Vertigo, certain shots have a certain compositional symmetry and balance to them that helps draw our attention, as viewers, to individual characters, namely that of Madeleine Elster/Judy Barton, portrayed by Kim Novak (because she has these two roles, I will be referring to her actual name when making reference to her). Various balanced shots in the film use Novak as a literally dividing figure, creating a down-the-line symmetry. By looking at these shots one by one, I…

Deconstruction of Koyaanisqatsi (Godfrey Reggio, 1983) by Natalie Bakeer Koyaansiqatsi is paced and sequenced in an interesting manner. The way the shots are sequenced, affect how people think and feel about the film. The pace of the shots, along with the powerful score, by Phillip Glass, determine the feelings viewers get as they watch it. Sometimes Reggio decided what to shoot only after Glass came up with the music that would end up energizing Reggio’s films. Reggio chose to shoot unscripted…

through to try and escape. I liked the extreme long shot of Andy crawling towards the camera, through the hole he made. You could really see his facial expression and the struggle on his face, as he made his way through the hole. It was a really good choice made by Stephen King, when he chose to have an extreme long shot of the prison with the diegetic sounds of lightening and rain in the background. My favourite part of this scene would be the long shot of Andy struggling to run through the…

What is tennis? Well i'm going to tell you about tennis. Tennis is a sport. tennis can be played individually with a single opponent (called singles) or you can do (doubles) where there's two people on each side.

gives its own twist and darkness that the story needs. The opening shot of the movie is a close up of many different statues and their faces, then the camera focuses on a statue of Hamlet, which would be considered an establishing shot. An establishing shot is often a long shot or series of shots that sets the scene, so therefore the shots of the faces on the outside of the buildings and Hamlet’s statue are defined as an establishing shot(s). When…

EXERCISE 1 As Wenger and Potter (2015) assert, “stand-ups can serve several functions, so it’s important to know in advance what you’re trying to accomplish with an on-camera segment” (p. 284). Personally, I would need to prepare myself thoroughly and conduct some research of my own to learn more about the topic at hand. My goal as a reporter is to establish credibility on the subject and be able to project confidence to the audience (Wenger and Potter, 2015). According to Wenger and Potter…

a long shot, with mysterious music, the model is in a big luxurious building running around as if she was exploring it when she sees two enormous mirrors. She’s wearing the same clothes and a short skirt. She drops her pink jacket and gets closer to the mirror. The camera closes in to a medium shot when she touches the mirror. The music tone changes as if she’s done something wrong. The mirror makes water like effect as if it was made of water. With the music going ‘bang’, Close up angle shows…
