Swede: Taken

Swede: Taken

Taken Cover

































Our swede idea was taken, my group thought it was the best option and had supposedly had it 'planned'.
We chose to do 5 main scenes in total which we thought were the most significant in the movie

Shot Types

The first shot consisted of an over the shoulder shot, we used this to show the view form the girls perspective, we can tell the character is a girl because of the long hair, we also used this shot type so the identity of the character, was hidden form the audience to create a more suspense opening scene.


Other shots that were included were a medium long-shot in the airport scene, to show the audience the setting of the scene and also close enough to see the characters emotions in this scene as they are leaving one another.



A high angled close up shot was used here to show the vulnerability of her farther because the girl is in a very dangerous place, it was also used to show that her dad was calling if this had of been a long shot this detail wouldn't have been put across to the viewers.



We used an over the shoulder shot here and also a long shot, an OTS was used to show the view of Amanda and a LS used to get the full body in the frame of the picture and to give the audience a view of what was happening in the scene.
