Cinematography



These clip is from the opening scene of James Bond 007, Skyfall. In this slip it's showing how 007 is chasing the villain in the car with his helper but the villain manages to escape at the end with a motorbike (prop) and therefore, led 007 to steal someone else's motorbike and chase him. At the beginning of the clip, the camera view started of by being at a high angle. However, when a high angle is being created, it makes the protagonist weak and small but in this scene, it didn't really show that he was weak because in that scene, it showed he had that prop (the gun) which shows the power that the gun has even when it isn't even in use. After that scene where he was coming down the stairs, the camera was at a medium close shot showing that he was going into the car. At first, the camera movement was a tilt because he was going down the stairs but when he went into the car, it was showing more of a panning movement as the car was moving from left to right, so was the camera. At the scene of the side mirrors, the camera shot was an extreme close up because the mirror was the only thing that was clearly visible on the screen. Also, when the car that the main protagonist, 007, was in was hitting the villains car, the camera angle was low which made the car seem look even bigger than it was. This is also unclear because have a low angle should make everything look like they have more power but not in this scene because the bigger car over ruled the sports Audi.
