Shot description
Shot explanation



Over-the-shoulder / medium-long shot

The over-the-shoulder angle allows a point-of-view shot from the perspective of the man reading the newspaper. The medium/long shot allows enough background to establish the location as a metro train. The over-the-shoulder shot means the following shots, with the newspaper-reading man recognising the fugitive, are easy for the audience to interpret. The concept of a fugitive on a mission to clear his name is a classic Action Adventure quest narrative, with many obstacles and challenges ahead before the main protagonist (hero Tom Cruise) can succeed.


Medium shot
 The medium shot is ONLY showing half of the characters body so there for it is a medium shot. It is used in this picture to show you the area the character is in and what he is surrounded in, in this picture the character is surrounded by lots of people that are trying to get on the ‘train’. Also the picture shows you what kind of position the character is in as you can see in this picture that character is in a escape position and looks as if he is going to be targeted.



Shot:  medium close up
The medium close up shows the subjects emotions and shows how many people there are. It also only shows a bit of the background. By the look of their helmets and some parts of their gear the audience , might notice that this film is set in the future therefore their might be some new types of equipment in the film that might interest other producers to do some of the ideas the director/producer/editor came up with to help with their movie/film. By the look of their faces some people interpret that it has to do with the man at the train station, so there might be some running and a lot of drama and action. At the back you can almost see the stairs which they descended from. Their emotion suggest they are there for business only and not for fooling around.


Establishing shot
This is and establishing shot because it shows you where the action is taking place.  This shot is a good shot to show the audience cause it shows you where most of the scene is going to be. I can tell this because if you looking the corner of the picture the character is in a running position from this you can infer that this is going to be a chasing scene.


medium close up
I called this image an ant eyed view close up because for a close up the image character or object has to be with in head to shoulder, as you can see in this image the character is placed from head to shoulder. I called this image and ‘ant eyed view’ cause that camera has taken this shot from the bottom of the characters body to make that character look strong and power full.


Establishing shot
This is a birds eye view type of shot.It looks down on a aircraft and some buildings.This sets the scene for were a bit of a fight scene will  take place.Tom cruise was looking up this establishing scene shows us why he was looking up.This aircraft may be  sort of red herring to prevent the shot from giving too much of a hint to the audience








Close up






Here he seems quite powerful due to his confidence.
He seems to have a sort of smirk on his face.He obviously knows something that they don't.He also seems very focused and maybe a bit anxious.This can seen in his body language and facial expressions.


Close up
 I think this is a close up because the camera is focussing on that characters face and the way he is feeling from his facial expression.  As you can see on the characters face it is as if he is shocked and thinking that there is no escape-need to figure out a plan on how to escape the cops







Close up






This picture shows shows the weapon to signifier that they are more “powerful” then him right now and that they should win the battle between them


Medium shot
This shows him looking down from the top of the building.This makes him look superior.this medium shot shows background in some detail while still showing tom cruises posture and body language.

Still Image Analysis


Still Image Analysis

Long shot - 
(We have used 2 long shots for the same purpose so the analysis will be the same) 
 We have used a long shot here to show both characters in love and together. The long shot also allows us to see the surroundings of the couple which are a calm and pristine area. This suggests that the couple are in love and happy together.
Medium shot -
(We have used 2 medium shots for the same purpose so the analysis will be the same) 

We have used a medium shot to show that the character is speaking without much emotion or intense concentration. We have also used this shot to show that the characters intent was to deliver information. The medium shot also allows us to see the characters body language, which in this photo suggests that he/she is calm and not stressed out. 
 Over the shoulder - This shot has been used to show that the lady is "showing off" to the man. This is also a POV shot. This shot is also used to show the conversation the two characters are involved in.
 Establishing Shot - 
We have used this shot to establish the first scene, and to show the audience where the action is taking place.

 Medium close up - This shot has been used to show the sad tone that the character is feeling. A medium close up is used because the arms are in view. The arms also show the sadness and loneliness involved in the image.
 Over the shoulder - This shot has been used to show the man walking away from the woman. It is also a point of view shot, this has been used to express the inner thoughts and feelings of the woman. (These include sadness and sorrow)
 Dutch shot - This shot was used as it is an skew'd angle to show and emphasise the power level between the two lovers. From this shot we can see that the person on the bottom (me) is at a lower power level compared to the person above me. This suggests that I am inferior and/or less important compared to the other person.
Low angle - From this shot we can see that a low angle shot is used to show that the character is back to where it started, a sad and lonely person who is drinking them selves better. This shot also shows only the person - which suggests that all the character needs is themselves and no one else.
