Specific Camera Shots/Angles

The Unseen Effects

Welcome back, everyone! A part of a movie director's job is to initiate certain camera shots and angles to bring out the most of the scenes and evoke the right emotions. This is no different with our movie. Though it is invisible to the typical audience, a movie-makers eye can easily notice it.


High Angle


This angle was quite a unique one in our film. Following getting knocked out by Agent Eugene, Agent Edison was unconscious on the floor. A high angle was used to further exaggerate his weakened state, and was also used complimentarily with a tilt to reveal his vulnerability for comedic purposes.


Full Shot


This camera shot, though fairly simple, was done purposely. It captures Eugene standing quite stealthily on the phone, while also showing the background behind him. His stance provides insight into his role in the movie (agent) and his hooded figure further stresses this. The tree he is leaned on as well as the deserted background tells the audience that he is in a hostile location, which the audience can infer is the woods from the sequence of clips that this is placed in.


Low Angle


Another iconic angle. The low angle was used here to elevate Agent Eugene's power and strength. After just knocking out Agent Edison, the audience can clearly see who is the more powerful of the two. Pairing this low angle of Eugene with its counterpart - the high angle of Edison, provides a direct distinction between the characters and their abilities.
