Bullitt
Action, Drama
1968 film
This first shot of this opening is really captivating because of the lighting and camera angle. This close up is shot from down low which could show the importance of the characters. The lighting could also mean that there is something creepy or horrible people. However, it does make the shot creative and powerful.
What I didn't like about this shot is that even though you can see the actor is hiding from some people, possibly the characters shown in the previous shot, the credits are just positioned right in the middle of the screen which distracted my view away from the footage to the bright writing.
Similarly, to the first shot, the close up camera angle is again low, which could mean that this character is also important and powerful.
I liked the setting of here, instead of being a simple long establishing shot of a car park, the layers of each floor creates interesting composition.
