The use of shallow focus on
the overall shot allows the camera to focus on the three main characters which
are presented. Rule of thirds is used to reinforce the characters power and
determination, furthermore, the use of lead room also helps creates the sense
of determination, it creates dynamic and reveals the charactrs importance. The
colour paette of this shot is a hellish orange colour which resembles violence
and anger, the costume in contrast is a dismal grey which is forboding and is
in contrast to the setting, causing the characters to stand out.
A range of techniques are used in this shot
to show the power of the group. The straight on show reinforces the number of
people approaching and the point of the characters walking directly though the
puddle shows their authorities in the scene and how nothing can disrupt their
fortitude. The puddle in the shot also foreshadows aggressive behaviour, the
puddle which was once calm is shown being disrupted by the militant like group.
The darkness of the character’s costume reveals the formality of the characters
and furthermore portrays the groups sombre personalities.
In this image only
the reflection of the characters is shown, the low angled shot makes the shot
seem distorted, enabling the viewers to see the characters in focus. The low
angled wide shot emphasises the vast number of people approaching, the slow
revealing shot accentuates the appearance of the gang. Again, the dark clothed
characters imply a sense of danger and mystery. The fire being a prop conveys
an impression of hell and the character’s menace.
The still balance of the camerawork in this shot creates the sense of power for the characters by showing the characters with complete control over the shot. The movement of the characters walking closer so the camera show their authority. It shows the men are bringing some kind of disorder to he scene when breaking into the shot with the splashing of the puddle. Also implying a gang like culture by disruption which gives the audience the expectation that they are a violent and powerful group.
