Cinematography quiz

Shot 1
The type of shot used is a two shot showing the dialogue between two characters.The lighting used in the shot is high key, which represents the natural outdoor light in the scene.

Shot 2
The shot is a medium close up shot of the character, with the lighting being low key to cover the shot with shadow, shrouding the character in mystery. The camera angle is at eye level, to make the audience more involved in the scene.

Shot 3
This shot is a medium close up of a woman at a low angle which exudes a sense of authority and power and, along with high key lighting, gives the idea that this character is the protagonist  or some form of good in the narrative.

Shot 4
The shot is a high angle two shot of these characters, with the angle used to represent them as being inferior and weak.The lighting is low key which induces shadow in certain areas, as well as backlight to distinguish the characters from the dark surroundings.

Shot 5
The shot is a long shot of the character to make him look like he blends well in the alley scene. The backlight is used to make sure that the character is still able to be distinct from the background. The shot also uses a orange layer to make the light look like it is from a dim orange street light.

Shot 6
The shot is a wide shot which uses lighting to distinguish these characters from each other. The shot incorporates backlight to make the woman contrast from the low key shadow the other two characters are in. This could show the audience that the woman is a more heroic character than the other two in this narrative.

Shot 7
This shot is a close up of a man's face with the low key lighting making his face look distinct from the dark water, the shot also uses backlight to highlight the front of his face.

Shot 8

Shot 9
This shot is a over the shoulder shot which uses selective focus on the characters reflections in the mirror, and also uses low key lighting and orange layers to set the mood.
