(Main task) Post 6: Camera shots

Again, due to the technical difficulties with my computer, i am unable to upload any stills from our main task, however i can still talk about them...

In order to better portray our theme of a dual personality, we required some way of showing that our character had two very different sides to him. Eventually, we located a means of achieving this, when our character is walking through the bar, he passes by a glass display cabinet, the bent glass on the cabinet creates two images of the character as he walks past, painting a perfect portrait of split personalities.

Another shot perfectly shows the internal struggle of the character, just as he enters the bar, he turns and closes the door, he leans his head against it before continuing, at the moment when his head is upon the door, the scene moves to a close up of the face, the expression shows that something is not quite as it seems, that something is wrong.

Finally, the flashbacks....in order to show that the viewers are being transported back in time, we tinted the screen blue, this showed that what is being viewed is in very different circumstances to the previous scene, also, the dialogue used came directly from the camera, and therefore had acquired an eerie echo, these factor combine to create a feel of looking back into the shady, almost forgotten past.
