English - Film Techniques

In English, we were working on our S.E.X.X.Y. Paragraph. Our group task was to write a SEXXY Paragraph about how the techniques were effectively used. We wrote about the two-shot technique.

In this scene, the director used two-shot to show the intense emotions of both characters.	We see this when Sergeant Bormann held a weapon against Geel piet’s neck as we see the fear in his eyes.	The purpose of this two-shot is to help us see Geel’s Piet emotion as he was getting chocked by a baton. The purpose of this was to also see the guard’s anger as he was determined to kill Geel Piet.	This made the audience feel miserable for Geel Piet.	This aspect can be seen later in the movie as to how the guards treat the black people.
