Interstellar Cinematography Analysis

The video help set the atmosphere because it set up the setting. Some examples would include when the stock market crashed they showed a video of how life was like during that time. It was also ironic that the ballet happened on October 29 the same day when the stock market crashed. This helps set up the next scene. Another example would include when Clyde goes to jail for the first time.

Introduction In this essay, I am going to analysis the film named “Cloverfield”, which was released on 18th January 2008 in North America. I will talk about the genre, key scenes, media institution, other media company, film marketing, marketing mix, media technology, audience, digital platforms, convergence and regulation. It was a PG13 film which mean parental guidance is required for children if they are under 13. It was directed by Matt Reeves and starring with Lizzy Caplan, Jessica Lucas, T.J. Miller, Michael Stahl-David, Mike Vogel and Odette Yustman.

The Coens use a very strong angled shot in the scene “Everything Escalates” as Carl shoots Lee. We are seen looking through Carls eyes looking down at Lee on the ground with his gunshot wounds. This shot shows that Carl is much more of a dominant position as Lee is very weak, this shot is used to show Carl's dominance over Lee. Another strong camera shots the Coens use is a POV shot from the ticket booths man perspective it shows the gruesome gunshot wound of Carl's face, The Coens often use such brutal scenes to gain the audience's attention and which can be seen in many of their other film noir genre

He decided to film what was going in the family behind closed doors. The media was outside documenting everything that went on but no knew what was going on inside. According to Nichols observatory mode “emphasizes a direct engagement with the everyday life of subjects as observed by an unobtrusive camera”. The footage that is shown is unedited and shows what the family is

One of the massive aspects of movie making is the movement and angles at which the camera is held. One film that does a great job of creating this form of cinematography is Raising Arizona, directed and produced by the Coen brothers. This fast paced crime comedy does an excellent job of capturing the audience’s attention by making them feel as though they are actually a part of the action. An example of the great camera movement is when the camera bobs up and down as it gets closer to the Arizona’s house, this creates the effect that the viewer is actually the person who is approaching the house.

2001: A Space Odyssey is now widely acclaimed to be revolutionary, but the reviews upon its release were more divisive. Aside from the special effects, which were universally praised, many aspects of the film evoked wildly differing responses from critics, ranging from being “an unforgettable endeavor” (Gilliatt) to “immensely boring.” (Adler) A common complaint was the lack of an exposition, which made the film more confusing to some.

Many say the best aspect of this film was its cinematography which greatly affected the feel and look throughout. From the opening credits to the last scene of the film the Cinematography was very important, the first scene of the film Jake LaMotta is alone preparing for a fight in a smoky ring. While this scene was shot in slow motion, with its wide angle lens which enlarged the size of the boxing ring. The use of the close frame composition techniques makes the viewers notice that Jake LaMotta is completely

As the sequence starts the audience hears again a non-diegetic score as well as an establishing shot, used to establish a specific place or time in a film, giving the audience Alex’s location as well as placing a setting on the sequence. From this establishing shot the camera cuts to a low-angle right to left pan showing Alex walking along a fallen trees through the vast wilderness that now surrounds him. The camera then cuts to a catipllier crawling on a branch and through the use of a rack focus the views see Alex walking along the forest floor. Through shifting the focus from one plane to the other in this case the catipllier to Alex, nature is a key focus in this sequence. As the sequence goes on the audience is given both a non-diegetic sound as well as the diegetic sound of the forest, including birds, water running, and the ground crunching as Alex walks.

With the conjunction of the framing and the point of view shots, the audience is able to share Jeff’s perspective, thus sharing the role of voyeur. Such techniques are employed to demonstrate the entire spectrum of romantic

When everyone walks outside to talk to Charles, the camera angles are shown as if they are all standing beneath an object

The editing used in this scene is very effective in adding pressure to the scene. Quick cutting between scenes emphasises the fast pace of the action whilst back and forth cuts from the control room to are used to heighten tension. Additionally, clever editing is used to mask the fact that the same plane is shot down several times by showing the footage from different angles. The soundtrack for this scene consists of fast-paced action music to further raise tension.

The motion of the camera in pans, tilts, tracking shots and focuses is something that I very rarely notice in film, mainly because it is something so natural to the human eye. When a camera makes a pan to establish a setting, like the pan shots of San Fransisco in Vertigo, it seems establishes the environment but is something that is noticeable. When a pan is used to bring a subject into frame or to explore a space, it feels very natural to the human eye and really plays on perspective. Tracking shots (or dolly shots) also add a sense of perspective which puts you into the environment as you are guided by a central character or subject. Zoom lenses are also good at calling something to attention or readjusting the composition’s

Baz Luhrmann’s films are known their ability to make a watcher feel as if they are part of the show. Between his use of camera angles, shots and the use of a narrator, it’s no wonder he is able to keep viewers on the edge of their seat. But how does Baz Luhrmann pull off this spectacular feat of his? This is probably explained best by referring to Baz Luhrmann’s films and how he himself has evolved as a director.

John Nash’s emotions are expressed through various cinematography. The opening scene of the film shows shifting camera movement and this is done through physical displacement of the camera. The movements of the camera show John Nash is not confident in himself due to his schizophrenia. Different colours throughout the film express different emotions.

After Logan gets in an altercation with another mutant he is brought to Xavier’s school for gifted youngsters. He wakes up on an operating table with medical devices attached to his body and has no idea where he is. After stumbling off the table, he wanders into a hallway which seems cozy and welcoming but this new environment flusters him putting him off balance, he becomes dizzy and the camera tilts to a canted angle. This camera technique gets the audience to feel his confusion with
