Cinematography:

(Update add to original when at home***************


The movie I have picked is Casino Royale.  
The opening scene features the protagonist James Bond (Daniel Craig) bending over to retrieve his gun. The camera is located from behind him at mid waist level and is capturing a long shot. The shot is only seen for a few seconds until it jumps to a man on the floor aiming a gun at him. This shot was filmed as a medium shot. After this has been displayed the camera then jumps back to Bond its Iconic Gun barrel sequence with James Bond appearing out of the circle As you can see from the video Bond is also still captured in a long shot. All throughout this, the camera does not move and is not connected to a tracker.

Following this shot, the camera then zooms out on Bond and enters the gun barrel sequence. This then shortly follows up into the iconic Blood dripping from the top going down wards dissolving into the screen becoming red. Once the camera is fully soaked in what is now a dark red, the credits and the names of the creators appear.

Once the name of the protagonist has disappeared the camera is then full of Shapes of playing cards, a vibrant spades and a black club appearing from the center of the screen. This is related to the theme and title of this movie - CASINO Royale.
