Shot From Minority Report



This is a long high angle shot showing John Anderton hiding in a cold bath tub from heat seeking spider robots. I found this shot really interesting. The first thing that pops out is the diagonally split color contrast from brown to blue. The blue helps create a colder bathtub. I think of arctic water. The harsh contrast helps portray the conflict between Anderton and the spider. The room is very sharp and angular. The bathtub and beam of light split the shot into smaller geometric shapes. This promotes further tension and stress.

  1. yes, high angle, LS. good points about angles and color. metalic surfaces from tub to dog tags are worth discussing, anderton's clothes, and the harsh light, too. the blind fold is also a key element in still and plot, no? overall, though a good start toward a potentially very strong analysis.
