1. This is a establishing shot which is used so we can see all
of the surroundings and getto grips with where we are. It is also
used to show us that the death star is half builtand still in its
construction stage.
2. Its still using the same camera shot, but the space ship is
flying in to the shot.They might of done this because it
exaggerates the size of the spaceship as the longer ittakes for the
ship to fully enter the scene the bigger the ship seems.
3. This is a low angle shot of the ships which is used to make
them seem more important inthe scene and I also think the ship and
planet are put side by side to show the comparisonin size with the
planet compared to the Spaceship.
4. This is a midshot of the two officers approaching the death
star I think this shot is used toshow us actually how big the death
star is.
5. This is a close up of the computer system to show how
technologically advanced thedeath star is. Which makes you think
about what it might be capable of.
6. In this shot there is a siren playing which could suggest
what ever is on the ship isdangerous, but it could also suggest
that the ships arrival might be unexpected.
7. This is a high angle shot of the ship and it shows us a
welcoming comity waiting in rows outside the ship which makes us
think who or what ever is on the ship is important. Also, it
mightbe used to make the ship look bigger there for more
dominant.
8. In this shot the officer looks very serious. He is also
dresses smartly so this mightindicate that he is also
important.
9. This is a close up of the officers face which shows him
looking very scared/nervous about whoor what is on the ship
10. The fact that he is revealed by walking through a cloud of
smoke makes you think of hischaracter as quite sinister and makes
you place him on the side of evil (The Empire)
11. Black is most typically thought of been a colour of evil
and all things dark so the factthat the whole of his clothing is
black could suggest that he is evil. Also, the factthat she does
not even look human makes us wary of him and gives us ideas ofwhat
his character might be like.
12. There is a close up of the officers face to show he is
concerned that the emperor is coming. Whichsuggest to us that he is
not a good character before seeing him. Also, it makes us think
what is sobad about the Emperor to provoke a face like that. It
also makes us think who is the emperor? Andwhat is he doing?
13. The fact that shot used to show his arrival is been used to
show him leavingindicates that this scene is coming to a end. This
is a clever use of camera shots.
