 Intuition by Sopiga

  • cinematography/camerawork: composition, framing, BCU, CU, MS, LS, pan, tilt, tracking shot, zoom

- The camera used was really clear so we could see everything clearly. The camera work was steady a lot of the time. Wide shot was used  a lot as well as some close ups.


  • mise-en-scéne: clothing, props, gestures, facial expressions, sets, setting (CLAMPS)

- It was a casual setting mostly at home. The facial expressions that were used were realistic making it it appealing to the audience since the actors were acting properly.


  • lighting: key light, back light, filler light; underlighting, top lighting, back lighting; low-key/high-key lighting

- Top lighting was used a lot as well as some lighting from the corners. Natural lighting from outside was used a lot from the sun.


  • sound: diegetic/non-diegetic; on/off screen, sound bridge; parallel/contrapuntal sound, voiceover narration

- The sound was really clear letting us hear it properly, there was diegetic sound used.  A lot of parallel sound was used especially when her friend was missing making it suspenseful for the audience.


  • editing: continuity editing, jump cut, dissolve, wipe, fade in/out, cross-cutting, paralleling, cutaways, montage, suturing (shot/reverse shot)

 used as well.
