This is my group’s five shot movie for New Media. The shots we used are as follows;
1: A vertical pan of Derbhla from below (to make her appear intimidating to the viewer)
2: An over the shoulder shot of Sarah, looking scared and vulnerable
3: A panning view of Derbhla walking across the room toward Sarah
4: A point of view shot of Sarah, from above to give the impression to the viewer that she is scared / powerless
5: A reverse angle shot / reaction shot of Derbhla, from below to once again indicate her position of power. She raises her hand and moves to smack at the camera, ie: Sarah. In this shot we improvised and covered the lens just before the slap would have made contact. The noise of the slap can still be heard, but by removing the visual we felt it added more dramatic effect than we could have achieved by filming the slap.
No Sarahs were harmed in the making of this movie.
