Camera Movement And Editing

Camera Movement
Handheld Camera
  • The directer uses a handheld camera during the chase to make the action feel real and messy, like someone is filming it live on the street.
  •  It makes us feel stressed and paniked because the shaky frame makes us feel like we are running away with the main character.
Tracking Shot
  •  The camera smoothly follows right alongside the character as he sprints through the streets to keep up with his fast speed.
  •  It keeps us locked into the action so we never lose sight of how dangerous the chase is, making the scene feel fast and exciting.
Tilt
  • The camera aims upward or downward to follow a character jumping down between platforms or looking up at a threat.
  •  It helps us understand the layout of the setting and makes us realize how high up the character really is.
Editing
Fast-Paced Cutting
  • The editor switches between different shots quickly. This fast cutting builds  tension and makes us feel overwhyelemed, matching the panic of the character.
Cross-Cutting
  • The film cutss back and forth between the hero running and the police chasing him. This shows us both things happening at the exact same time, making us worry that the hero is about to get caught.
 Shots & Camera Angles
Low-Angle Shot
  • The camera is placed low down, looking up at the police officers. This makes the bad guys look massive, powerful, and scary, showing the audience that they have all the control.
High-Angle Shot
  • The camera looks straight down at the main character from above. This makes him look tiny, weak, and helpless against the huge world around him, showing us that he is in deep trouble.
