Camera Shots

the first was a tracking shot of atko walking along a path and down the stairs, this is also turned into a match on action when it cuts to a shot from inside the hall. This next shot was a medium shot of atko walking in the cameras direction. then when atko reached a certain point it cuts to obstructive medium/long shot, we did this because it gave the impression that the character was being spyed on because of the railing in the way of some of the shot, this also shows realism for the audience as something is in the way. Atko then reaches for the chair and it cuts in to a close-up as his hand touches it. Then when he sits down it cuts away to where the shot was before. This also created a match on action. It then cuts to a medium/close-up of atko sitting down. He then does some swift hollywood eye movement on the close up of his face, making an eyeline match as it cuts to a medium shot of Jim in the doorway. He then walks towards the camera and it cuts to an over the shoulder shot of Jim sitting down opposite Atko. Then the lines of dialogue continue as there is some shot/reverse shots from over the shoulder following the 180° rule. After the dialogue is finished, Atko gets up and walks to Jim as he puts his hand on his shoulder it cuts to a close up of Jim as Atko puts his hand on his shoulder.
