This is a scene from the first Pirates of the Carribean film. Not the first film that springs to mind, I know, but there's some good camera work in it:
- 0:00- big close up so that the audience cannot see the entire scene and does not know what is going on- only a reaction to what is happening.
- 0:10- long shot to show the main focus of the scene.
- 0:14- Mid- close up to show his reaction to this action.
- 0:16- Forward track following his movements across the scene to capture his struggle to cross the sand.
- 0:20- Moving subject into space: he travels forward so that camera has both characters and the fire in the background, while the continuity that he has been running towards her is upheld.
- 0:28- Over the shoulder shot to more effectively capture her anger directed at him.
- 0:59- Tilt, which has the camera show a sand dune before travelling upwards to show the main scene, with the island stretching away into the background. This would appear to be to show that the location has changed to a different part of the island, and we are shown how far away it is when the full panorama is revealed.
This is a scene from one of the Star Trek films, where Mr. Spock is dying. At least I can be sure that no-one else will have chosen the same films as me...
- 0:56- pan to show the journey of the Captain, his speed and urgency shown by his running along the corridor.
- 2:33- 2 shot showing the closeness of the tow characters, emphasising the emotion of the scene as Spock dies.
- 4:21- brief high angle shot looking down on the two characters, with the Captain collapsed in despair, and the movement in the scene very still, emphasising how low down they both are.
- 4:27- Crane showing the coffin descending, while showing the crowd gathered at the funeral, setting the scene.
- 5:47- Reverse track as the coffin moves backwards, taking in the gathering at the funeral, showing how many are present.
