Required short films- Operator




 1st impression from the title- sci-fi, about a man doing a train job, ominous

Incredible acting, off-screen sound and action- keeps project low-budget, allows the spectator to imagine- engages them, incites possibly more fear 

Opening- diegetic sound, panning, CUs, shifting focus- disorientating- spectator immediately engaged

180 degree rule broken- operator transitions from just one in a row of many to the main character- slow dolly-in- attention drawn in, realisation, tension- CU- can see operator's expression

Very long take- realism, tension- cut when woman goes into fire- shift in mood

Gemma hangs up- long moment of silence- relief, shock- from CU to MS- moment to breathe
