:: Minority report -

MINORITY REPORT

At 1:05 to 1:09, the camera tracks from a high angle, making the man at the bottom feel small, trapped and vulnerable in the dark alley. It makes him appear like he has a lack of control and suggests the situation is dangerous and chaotic. 


This scene, which takes place at 1:28, is a low angle shot. This has the exact opposite effect of the high angle shot, making the people seem more powerful and intimidating. This could maybe foreshadow how the man is going to take back control of the situation and escape and/or fight the ones who were chasing him.


During the fight scene, starting from 2:10, they tend to use fast pace editing to create tension and suspense for the audience. The quick changes between shots makes the scene feel way more intense which could keep the audience more invested and interested in the movie.

At 0:47, I'm not exactly sure what this is called, but the fact that they continously switched between the characters proves that they really wanted to create tension here. The audience would feel as if they shouldn't be trusting on or the other which could be confusing and keep them watching for longer to find out what'll happen between the two.



At exactly 1 minute in, the camera tracks and pans, following the man who was running away, avoiding what's going on behind him. This could be nerve-wracking because the audience wouldn't know whether he's still being chased, or has gotten away. By his facial expressions, we can tell he's still very nervous which could suggest they could still be very close and about to capture him, but the audience has no way of knowing which makes the situation even more tense.



At 2:51, the camera zooms into the mans face while he's hanging from a ladder really high up off the ground. This zoom can create suspense and pressure as he could fall and hit the ground any moment and get detained. 


At 2:59, the camera falls straight down, showing what a high drop it is for them. This could made the audience feel extremely uneasy as the motion blur shows has fast and high up the fall is. As the camera tilts, it creates a sense of urgency for the audience.
