ISL WEEK 3.

CASINO ROYALE!

This shot is a Mid Shot (MS) it still gives a clear picture of what’s going on and the surroundings. The camera is facing straight on so he is in the centre of the picture. Using the rule of three you can see the gun is the main object so makes you think this scene is going to be violent. This shot is also good at showing the emotion on the characters face, which you can see here he is obviously facing someone ready to shoot them. The lighting seems to be coming from the right hand side reflecting off the gun which makes the audience draw to that.



This still image is a Long Shot (LS) it shows clearly what’s happening and where. We can see from this picture there is an explosion taking place. We can see this at eye level so draws you to the whole picture straight away. By the scene being filmed at night, it makes the flames stand out more which make the picture more exciting. In this scene music is played to make it a more dramatic, tension part of the film.


This image would be a close up as it shows the characters facial expression. Using the white curtain contrasts to his face so you’re drawn to him. The lighting is going straight to his face so you know he must be looking out a window. Also, his face expressions show his feeling to the viewer so from this picture you can tell he’s thinking about something that he’s not happy with, so he must be plotting revenge. He could also be watching someone as the curtains aren’t fully open, he’s just peeping out.


This shot would be called a two shot. It shows the two subjects having a conversation as it follows both their action and movement. You can see clearly the reaction of one of the characters rather than the other, which would explain the sort of subjects being discussed. The camera angle is straight on but slightly turned on the main character (James bond). The lighting seems to be coming in from the right to shine on his face, while the women’s face is a little shaded. They’re outside away from everyone so looks like a very tense/important conversation.



This shot would be a Medium Close Up (MCU) as it shows the face more clearly, without getting uncomfortably close. It would be a better image on the face if it was a close up. The camera angle is pointing straight forward making it eye-level, by making no camera angles it’s making the picture more realistic. It shows he’s looking at something/someone so he might have got caught doing something he shouldn’t be doing (like going on the computer) or just having a brief conversation with someone not showing the other person. It shows little surroundings which seems to be out of focus which draws more attention on the character, so he’s the main object.
