Cinematography in Paul


This is the establishing shot. The mise-en-scene gives the viewer a very good understanding of the time period and sets the scene straight away. In this shot there are lots of object s that make the time period very believable and real.
      This is a shot from the opening scene, it is an extreme long shot which shows a full view of the scene including all the surroundings which gives you a sense of what the area is like. It gives you a greater understanding of the location. The weather in the shot makes it look dramatic which fits the mood. 
      This a close up shot. It helps portray the emotion on the girls face and makes the viewer interested in what it is that is making her looked shocked therefore making the viewer intrigued in the situation and wanting to keep watching. There is a shallow depth of field making the girl stand out more and also letting the viewer understand here emotion in greater detail.
