Shots and Angles

 Selection of Shots and Angles

   In this blog, we want to discuss the main shots and angles that the introduction will consist of. 

  The first two shots that we mainly are focusing on at the moment is close ups and the rack focus technique. In the introduction, there will be many different close ups, For example, close ups of the newspaper, the killer's mask, and the blood all over the killer and his knife. The other shot we want to use is the rack focus. The rack focus technique is described as changing the focus of the lens during a continuous shot. When a shot “racks,” it moves the focal plane from one object in the frame to another. We want to implement this technique while the main character is looking at the newspaper article back at home and his mask is in the background out of focus but still visible at the same time. This will be letting the viewers know he is the killer without someone saying it out loud. We know this may be difficult to do without higher quality technology, but I still feel that it is possible to do; however we anticipate the difficulty that the shot technique will present.
