The 'Jaws' shot - Bradley Mills



Feedback
Becky ( 1st more effective because the background seems to be com,ing forward into the shot creating a feeling of apretion

hannah ( I think that i like the second clip better becuase the policeman appears dark and scary and ambiguous by the end as he is in darkness. also i personally think the camerawork is better and if it leads into the flashback it would further extend (prolong)  the idea that the police is there to give bad news


We planned to replicate the iconic 'jaws shot' which uses a dolly and a zoom in conjunction to create a surreal feeling of a persons equilibrium being disturbed. We used a chair with wheels as our dolly and i sat on the chair whilst will pulled the chair back so that i could try to hold the camera still and zoom in at the same time, we had a lot of problems due to the lack of space available and the surfaces we were able to use and out of a choice of 13 similar shots this is the shot we decided to use.
editing
The original shot was not completely smooth and there was a significant jolt to the left that i had to remove via editing.
