Spooks non-diaolgue analysis

In this task we identified which different shots were being used and to what effect they were used. From this I have learnt that different types of shots establish different things. For example, close up shots establish facical expressions and the emotion of the character, and long shots can establish the setting. From this task I will take on board the understanding that different shots help to convey different things or aspects in a film. 

Movie screen shots of different types of camera movement

Type of camera movement:	Movie:	Effect:
Tilt	Payback (1999)	The pivoting of the camera vertically or on its axis can give an off balanced effect, which may foreshadow or suggest a danger or that something is wrong. This is used in Payback and does effective foreshadow danger as the character gets shot.
Canted roll	Warehouse 13 (2009)	The camera moves diagonally as well as side-to-side giving a disorientated effect or to show a character is off balance. This movement is used in Warehouse 13 to show the unnatural sci-fi world, which the two characters are entering. This unnatural movement adds to the idea of the genre, as it would not be normal on Earth.
High/ low angle	Kindergarten cop (1990)	With a high angle shot the camera is elevated above the action to give a general overview. A low angle shot is the opposite of this and can be used to disorientate and give powerlessness to the audience.  It however can be simply used to show the size of an object or character and its contrast to another object or character. This example is used in Kindergarten Cop where the new teacher is extremely tall compared to the young kindergarten children. These two different shots are used to show this stark contrast.
Pan	Bullitt (1968)	The camera is pivoted to the side to scan a scene or to follow a moving object. This movement enables the audience to highlight the speed of moving objects as well as to establish the background/drop of the scene. This shot is used in Bullitt throughout the car chase scene. As mentioned, it enables the audience to establish the speed of which the cars are travelling at.
Point of view	Halloween (1978)	The camera is as if the audience is looking through the eyes of the specific character or from the perspective of the specific character. This is used in many horror films including Halloween as it builds suspense and allows the audience to almost become the character and apart of the film world.
