Matrix Screen Grabs(T&E)

 
Here we have a screen grab of a shot from the matrix. This caught our attention as it is taken from a low angle looking up at the building that the following scene is taken in. this could essentially be taken from a low angle as a view point of a character looking up at the building their about to enter. We feel this is effective as it is a technique many films use to set the scene. By looking at this building the viewer instantly knows this building takes place in the following scene or it is relevant to the film and could perhaps be a plot point. 

Batman returns uses a very similar shot during the beginning robbery scene.Unlike the the previous screen grab, taken from the matrix, the shot is of a landscape of buildings, we can see it is in the middle of a city, this gives the viewer a larger incite into the setting. Following this shot the camera tracks in towards the specific building that they want to audience to focus on, consequently telling the audience something significant is about to happen in this building. We aim to do something similar as we will our film takes place in a block of offices.
