Technical Codes.

Lighting

• Lighting creates mood and atmosphere and identifies the genre.

• High key – because it’s an action scene and you want to see all the details.

• Natural light – because they’re outside so there’s no key light, filler light or back light needed.

• Low contrast – it’s a natural setting so there’s not many different colours.

Type of shot

• Point of view – shows the audience what one of the characters is seeing.

• Long shot – full body shot and shows lots of background on display, shows location.

• Establishing shot – sets the scene and is generally at the beginning of films.

• Deep focus shot – looks at all details in the shot.

Proxemics

• Close together as they’re fighting – shows their relationship.
