In this movie they were many different camera angles, movements, and shots. Some angles in it included level, over the shoulder, many medium shots, many close ups, and medium long shots. There were also many two shots and three shots. Some camera movements in this movie included tilts, zooms, and tracking shots. Lastly, some shots that I noticed in this movie were crane shots and there were a few stock shots.
As far as the CLAMPS for this movie, the aspects were very pleasing. The costumes in this movie included professional clothing worn by those characters high in power, scientific costumes worn by scientists, and everyday clothing worn by the normal characters. The lighting in this movie included basic three point lighting, hard film lighting, low-key lighting, natural film lighting, and practical site lighting. As I’ve watched the other movies in the science fiction genre, I’ve noticed that they tend to consist of the same types of lighting. Which would make sense because those types of lighting are part of the conventions for the science-fiction film genre. Moving on, the acting in this movie was serious and dramatic. Some scenes required violent acting seeing as they were violent scenes.
The makeup in this movie was not very over-the-top, because the characters in the movie played fairly normal rules compared to rolls and other science fiction movies such as aliens. The props in this movie consisted of normal items ranging from computers to cars. However they were also props such as large scientific machines and other scientific objects. There were also guns for props as well as other weapons. The setting for this movie took place in an average city. The setting changed a few times throughout the movie. The characters were in houses, as well as laboratories.
The editing in this movie was very well structured. The main types of editing I noticed were cross cutting, cutaway, eye-line match, shot reverse shot, and jump cut. I also noticed dissolves, fade ins, fade outs, burn ins, and burn outs. One other edit I noticed was a wipe. As far as the common sign in this movie, there was diegetic sound, dialogue among the characters, voiceovers, sound motifs, and sound bridges. As far as the soundtrack, the score enhanced the movie, as well as the incidental music and ambient sound.
Every element in this particular sci-fi movie enhanced the plot of the movie and made it very intriguing to watch. My group and I enjoyed the lighting in this movie because it went along well with every scene. We also enjoyed the diversity of the different types of angles, movements, and shots. One thing we disliked about this movie and felt could have been better was the acting. Johnny Depp was incredible, as he usually is, but the other actors and actresses could have been better. Watching this movie allowed my group members and I to gain even more insight on the elements we should include in our own sci-fi movie.
