Breaking Down Movie Scene


Kiss scene in HD

Shot Types:
The establishing scene is an environment shot - showing the audience where they are and what it is. It starts off with a zoom into the characters, then an 'over the shoulder' shot slowly zooming into the first character.

Shots vary throughout the scene, mainly character shots for all the dialogue but a list of scenery shots are made (lots of long shots, panning and wide angles) Most of the shots are long and slow which fits well into the mood and theme of the scenery.

Colour Palette:
A lot of dark colours are used, but not the 'gloomy, scary' sort, it's quite a majestic sort of feel, lots of blue hues are used which are lightened with lots of glowing fire flies and the huge moon which has lighter 'cool' colours on it.

Environment:
Outside night environment - in the forest / calm water (river). Establishing scene - wide shot. Everything is very 'fantasy' looking (hence the name ... ) yet the detail is realistic. Lots of intricate detailing in everything. Lots of trees and plants around, and the characters are mainly based in the water (it's about waist deep so assuming it's a river or pond of some sort)
