Cinematography task (camera shots and movement)

The cinematography in the bugsy malone fight scene was mostly filmed on a tripod because most the shots were medium shots in the scene. In the clip they used some high angle long shots and some panning shots. They also used one shot where they zoomed in to a characters face which showed the facial expression. They used lots of medium shots of people getting hit in the face which was filmed from a low angle point.


The cinematography in the fight scene in Parker was filmed not on a tripod, it was filmed hand held. There was lots of medium shot and close ups which was mostly filmed from a low angle.




Overall through the years camera work has changed a lot throughout the decades. These days there are a lot of movement work using a steady cam or a dolly. In the past, films used a lot of steady shots.
