Camera work

We varied our camera angles throughout our thriller sequence, specific ones we used were; extreme close up/close up/medium shot/long shot. The close up shots complimented certain parts as it was crucial for the audience to know what needed to be emphasized. The med/long shots were used when we needed to show more happening in one shot. More examples of camera work we used were establishing shots, point of view shots and an enigma shot with the close up of the kidnappers eye.The majority of our thriller was filmed using a tripod. However, we filmed hand held on the parts where the kidnapper was watching the two boys as this made it more clear to the audience that they were being watched. We also used night shot mode on the camera to make it more obvious to the viewer its a point of view shot.
