A2 Media: Analysis of shots that I have taken

Shot of male protagonist's legs running- fast pace, follows legs. Quite blurry to represent the speed of the character's running

Tracking shot of male protagonist running- Unsuccessful as houses and cars are visible within the background

Shot of male protagonist exiting a bush- Creates mystery and intrigue as to what was in the bush and who the character is running. I will use a filter to make this shot appear like it takes place at night.

Medium close up of male protagonist in bush with camera torch on- Fear is an apparent emotion in this shot due to the facial expression of my actor and his closed body language. I will use a filter to make this shot appear like it takes place at night.

Point of view shot of character crawling away backwards from an antagonist- Inspired by my style model 'Ouijia: Origin of Evil" trailer. The fact that this shot is also a high angle emphasises how powerless the character is and also shows how he is incapable of escaping

Close up shot of male protagonist seeming dead against a tree. Pans from right to left.

Tracking shot following the main characters as they walk side by side along the path.

POV shot of antagonist approaching both characters whilst they walk away backwards- Unsuccessful shot as it is obstructed by the camera cover in the bottom corner

(Re-shoot) POV shot of antagonist approaching both characters whilst they walk away backwards- The fact that the male character is in the forefront with his arms outstretched as the female character is hidden behind him suggests that he is protecting her. However, it is clear from both characters facial expressions that they are both terrified.

High angle shot taken from a tree. Makes characters feel vulnerable. Establishes their relationship as their physical closeness suggests an emotional closeness. Natural lighting from the sun is used.

Main characters are seen beginning construction of the tent in a two shot.

P.O.V. shot from the clown's perspective. Camera approaches female protagonist as she backs away into a tree behind her. High angle shot makes her appear endangered.

Long shot. Male protagonist emerges from behind a tree and runs towards the camera, it is suggested that he is being chased.

Continuation of the characters running. Up close shot of a large rock. His shoes are seen jumping over the rock.

Further continuation of the chase but from a different angle as he is now running away from the camera. The end of the jump is seen and he runs towards the emptiness of the fog.

Silhouette of the antagonist. Appears menacing without spoiling what the clown looks like. The fogginess and Sun work together to compliment them mystery. Low angle shots makes him seem powerful.

Long shot of main characters sat on a fallen log talking. P.O.V. shot from the clown.

Tracking shot of female protagonist running to escape villain. Handheld 'shaky cam' is used by me whilst I chased her to make the shot appear more frantic.

Establishing shot pans sideways to show how vast the forest it. The fog creates a more dramatic atmosphere by symbolising mystery.

Establishing shot from a low angle pointing towards the tree tops. This also shows the vastness of the location.

P.O.V. shot from the clown's perspective looking down whilst traveling across the pathway. Handheld camera is used to compliment the walking.

Close up shot of the clowns face at nighttime. Distorted to prevent fully revealing the clown's appearance. Low angle shot to make the villain seem more menacing.
