This place looks dirty and grim which suggests the poor lifestyle of our main character as he is homeless.
The planks can symbolise the bars of a jail cell in which the homeless man witnesses a murder through showing how the murderer lives a life of criminality.
The non-ambient lighting provides limited lighting which then makes the scene more dark and dull which ties in with the murder as it is a dark act of violence.
The graffiti and dirty walls and floors yet again show the poor lifestyle of the homeless man visually and without the use of dialogue. The tunnel soon vanishes making it seem never-ending and the walls make you feel claustrophobic which suggests a life of entrapment and he cannot escape his situation.
This is similar to 'A Clockwork Orange' with the scene where a drunk man is singing under a bridge and cannot escape when he is about to be murdered as there is nowhere to run due to enclosed space. The lighting limits the view for the audience as a shadow is fore-casted thus creating a mystery.
Well done for posting these shots - I particularly like the way you have referenced research in the screen shot from "The Clockwork Orange". In order to strengthen your planning:
ReplyDelete1) Add to the captions by explaining how you either use, develop or challenge generic conventions in these shots.
2) You also need to endeavour to take some tilt shots, low and high angle in order.
3) Try to reference more case studies re lighting, location or camera angles.
Your locations are well chosen thus far.
