Online Film Analysis

Clip A:
At the beginning, a medium to a long shot is used to establish the people and the setting. Then it zooms into a medium shot of the actors as they play cards. The camera always stay from their torso up never leaving that position. There is no slight movement of the camera which tells us they didn't use a hand help ;they must of used a steadicam. The lighting and composition was very well managed because it immersed the viewer in the scene and it made it actually look like a place where people would gather to play poker.

Clip C:
The scene begins with a long shot in order to set the setting. There was a lot of hand help camera when a person walked into a house which put the viewer in the scene. A high angle and low angle camera is used to show the dominance of one individual over another. Cross cutting is also used when the FBI breaks into the high simultaneously as the other other cop enters the real house they have been looking for.

Clip D:
Long Take allows the scene to be seem continuous. This creates a sense of urgency in the situation, making the viewer feel the buzz inside the building. The scene is shot with a medium shot on the adults, however cutting of most of the little boy's body. At a point it seemed that the 180 degree rule would be broken but never was. When the mother and son were in the elevator, it seemed that there was a balanced composition and as they walked out of the elevator, it is clear that they used a wide angle lens because it exaggerated the depth in which they walked.

Clip E:
The opening of the scene has the two characters at a medium shot with somewhat of a low key lighting since there is little shadow on one side of their face. Before they cut to the lady singing, you can hear her sing even before they switch toward that scene. A long shot is used on her as she walks down slowly moving back as she comes forward as if you yourself where there watching the opera. We never get to see the orchestra but the viewer assumes that they are there.
