Media language

We are going to use different types of media language in our project to convey the emotions of our character, which will be panic and fear.To do this we will be using a range of different techniques such as high angle shots which show the character as weak and vulnerable, canted angles which show the character as disorientated or paranoid, hand held camera shots to make the scene seem unpredictable and uncontrollable and extreme close ups to emphasise the characters emotions further. All these techniques will work together to create a sense of danger, panic and disorientation in the scene. they will also build tension within the audience as the camera angles and movement will create unpredictability in the sequence.
This sequence uses high angle shots and canted angles to show the vulnerability and confusion of the character:

We will be using similar media language to convey the emotions of our protagonist.
We will also be using low key lighting to create an atmosphere in our sequence.
This clip also uses low key lighting to create a tense and scary atmosphere:
