Camera Shot - Anaslis

In Class today we looked at short clip from 'King Arthur' analising the different camera shots throughout and why they are used in this flim, is it to present something for a sertain reason?


 

The clip above is from 'King Arthur' the battle. It presents a vast amounts of different camera shots to analise who are the man charachters and to repersent the location it is taken in. There are close up shots at the biggining of the clip to the main characters face expressing there emotions of how they are feeling. They used a close up shot to make the audience aware who to focus on. There are also long distance shot to show were it is located in and who else may be in this scene. It shows the other group of men coming towards them to battle in the distance.

I also looked at a short clip from 'Insidious' called 'The smiling family'. This is a horror flim so the camera shots used are to bring the audience in gaining there attention to cause tension.


At the bigginging of the clip as the man is walking down the stairs it shows a medium long shot to represent the location of were he is and what he is doing making it clear for the audience to understand. As he gets closer to the womens face shining the light it becomes a close up shot allowing you to understand the characters and to draw in the audience. Near the end of the clip as he goes to leave the room it shows an reverse angle shot as it gives you a clear image of him expressing his emotions with anxiety, then a shot looking back to what he was looking at to make it clear why he was feeling that way. 

In a clip there are ruffely around 200/250 different camera shots which helps the audience to identify the location, characters, emotions and setting the scene.
