The reason why I choose this scene is because that it stands for the basic filming skills in the whole movie industry. I think the scene I have choose is the normal but typical part in this movie.



1 Cinematic techniques

1.1 Size of shot

Close-up: It is used to show the emotion of the main character clearly. Because it is in the small room, most of the time the Close-up is frequently used.

2 Mise en scène

"Mise en scène" refers to what is colloquially known as "the Set," but is applied more generally to refer to everything that is presented before the camera. In this scene, I just feel that I was sitting in the sofa to sing with the actors as if I was personally on the scene. It provide a sense of reality. It makes the movie more reasonable according to the vision logic of human beings.



3 Camera view, angle, movement, shot

3.1 Bird's eye shot: 00:46:40

It shows where the place is located in. From this point of view, we could know that this scene is happened in a tall building at night. Actually most time, the bird's eye view is used to set up a general environment of a scene or the general background of the story.

3.2 Low angle shot: 00:46:59

It is a shot from a camera positioned low on the vertical axis, anywhere below the eyeline, looking up. I think this angle is used to show the happiness of the actor. It is a really interesting shot. And in this scene, the actor is facing to the camera, it seems that the audience is a part of this movie. It has the sense of reality.

3.3 Point of view shot: though out the whole scene

It seems that a character in the movie is looking at the camera. It is usually established by being positioned between a shot of a character looking at something, and a shot showing the character's reaction. Sometimes the point-of-view shot is taken over the shoulder of the character (third person), who remains visible on the screen. It is an interactive with the audience. It provides the sense of reality. And people can feel how the actor feels in the movie.

3.4 Racking focus: 00:46:37 ----- 00:48:00

It shifts the attention of a viewer of this film by changing the focus of the lens from a subject in the foreground to a subject in the background. I think the function of this shot is standing for the eye contact of the main actor and actress. As an audience, this transition leads us to focus on different expression by the director. And it is quite a popular technique in nowadays.

3.5 Pan and Tilt: Through out the whole scene

In photography, panning refers to the horizontal movement or rotation of a still or video camera, or the scanning of a subject horizontally on video or a display device. Panning a camera results in a motion similar to that of someone shaking their head "no" or of an aircraft performing a yaw rotation. However, Tilting is a cinematographic technique in which the camera is stationary and rotates in a vertical plane. They are both the camera movement and functional. Pan could used to describe the movement of the actor. Tilt is more interesting, and it could used to be the beginning of the whole movie to attract the audience's eyes.



4 Lighting technique and aesthetics

Actually I can't find any lighting techniques in this scene I have chosen except the natural lighting in the environment, because it is filmed indoor. In my opinion, there must be the lighting techniques in this scene, and the lighting here is probably used to fill the light in order to make this scene more colorful. And it is easy for the director catch the face of every actor in this movie.



5 Editing and transitional devices

5.1 cutaway: 00:46:40

It shows where the place is located.

5.2 Shot reverse shot: 00:46:57 ---- 00:47:39

This cutting is usually used in the conversation between two characters' talking. It is also an interactive inside the film. It makes the movie more interesting and reasonable according to the human logic.



6 Sound

Diegetic sound: through out the whole scene

It includes voices of characters and source music, represented as coming from instruments in the story space. In this scene, it successfully expresses the mood of the main actress and actor in this moment.



7 Dialogue

The dialogue in this scene is the lyric of the song that they are singing. Actually this is what they want to express when they see each other. This is a form to add the happy atmosphere in this movie. And it successes. This is probably the most interesting part of this whole movie.



8 Color

The color in this scene is normal except the hair color of the main actress, and the color is pink. I feel so unexpected about this pink color. Maybe director wants to express the personality of the actress on purpose. And the main actress is really special in this scene, especially the spirit she spreads. I think every audience could feel it.
