Planning Cinematography

Planning Cinematography


The importance of camera shots are that they are what gives an audience the visualisation of what the thriller will be viewed as by the audience. Different camera shots are going to be used to be able to portray different conventions that are suited to a genre by showing different components in a certain way. We have planned into making sure we use these camera shots at least once in our thriller as we believe that they are very conventional to the thriller genre and to our movie. We are going to use a Close up, POV shot and a Long shot in our thriller.

We thought we would use a close up at the beginning where Yeliz wakes up, this close up shows detail into her facial expression and gives emphasis to the audience on how she feels after the nightmare that she has just experienced. We thought this was conventional as in Thriller movies we looked at we saw how the camera would focus on to the victim to let the audience understand how she feels after the event that has occurred. We planned a scene where Yeliz is also reaching out to a door handle in order to uncover if there is anyone who is actually watching her through the door, when her hand will grip the door handle we will use a close up as it will show how tense she is while she knows not to open the door but something inside her is

  1. You have made a start in describing why camera shots are important to include within a thriller and you have also considered three different styles too.

    To show further understanding of why camera shots are essential to include you need to expand on the points that you are making. This can be achieved by focusing on each example separately. You have already considered one example, but further points and explanation is needed.
