CINEMATOGRAPHY BLOG TASK

 


We open to the scene of Elliot in an elevator and we see a front shot of everyone in the scene we then see the camera panning around the elevator showing the facial expressions of everyone in the room and their experience with a traumatic event taking place then and there.

It focuses on certain things like the news reporting the event that they're going through which further intensifies the scene and portrays a sense of helplessness what's beautiful here is that there are no cuts or transitions throughout this scene which is smooth and pleasing to look at.

We are giving inner monologue that explains to us how Elliot is feeling and what he is trying to do it helps us understand how this scene is building up and up until a disaster or problem may occur.

There's a continuous pan throughout the scene and a frontal shot and back shot of Elliot as he goes through the office and we rest at his desk.

We are then stopped and shoved into an escape scene as Elliot has been fired and might be detained we get a cool detail and Elliot looks directly at us like we are with him like partners in crime it's a cool and awesome feeling.

We then see these effortlessly and clear transition cuts that we never seem to notice in order to make it like a smooth continuous shot

We then end the scene by Elliot saying STAY FOCUSED as we are thrown into the scene.
