Minority Report Shot Analysis!!!








Shot 1: This is a medium close-up(MCU).This is becuase the head to shoulders are only to be seen in this picture. In this photo you can see the first man's facial expression which allows the audience to understand what is going on in the film. This medium close-up allows us enough background to tell us the location of the place and the set of scene also shows us the other characters in the movie. In the scene, the camera movement is a straight cut which changes a shot to one another as this happened in the scene with the guards face to John's face, where there was also a eyeline match aswell(when two actors see eachother).Whilst the eyecontact, the audience knew exactly what was going to happen at this point between the guards and John.


                                          
Shot 2: This is a wide/establishing shot because you can see location of where the scene has been taken such as you can see buildings, a alleyway and a rusty car which has been treated badly.The camera movement that has been used here is a whip pan(a very fast pan that can create a feeling of action or drama) which has been used for the scene of John Anderton(Tom Cruise) being chased by the guards. Another camera movement thats has been used towards this scene is a crane(shots are often high angle and show large, epic scenes of dramatic action) of the guards closing in on John where they caught him in the alleyway. There were also handheld shots(shaky movement)going back to the scene of the guards chasing after John. 


  
Shot 3:This shot is another medium close-up which was mainly set on John's face and the guard's face. There was also a eyeline match which makes it look like they were having a conversation. The camera was tilted downwards at a certain point  towards the characters head.The camera seemed to be handheld when the guards and John were fighting.
