Notes 1.2.2&3

White balance 
Blue and yellow 

Focus 
Clear and blurry 

What sub genre is this film
Crime thriller 

How is the camera being used to create suspense and mystery?

The camera was going back and forth from characters but never shows the faces, blurred and dark, bright when the fire lights up
Obscures the face, tight shot 

Enigma codes
Questions that are asked and are later on the answer is revealed.
Keeps the audience guessing
Who is the man that committed a crime?

Character types
The guy getting killed looks shifty and knew it was coming
They know each other
The one that's about to get killed is surrounded by petrol and dead bodies
Performance
Others actor around him 
You can't see the faces and are dressed in black, 

Opening 
Sets the story up
Foreshadowing end of the film at the start

What are the 7 common mistakes when people are filming 

Backlighting other than thriller only on the character you want to make mysterious 
Get more of the shoulders and not just the head
Don't use higher levels in every scene
Jogging the camera 
Don't zoom in 
Start recording before acting 
Jerking the camera(sweeping the scene)
