Scene Analysis - Trainspotting

In this scene, we see how London is interpreted compared to Scotland. The London montage includes non-diegetic music in the background which is upbeat and fun. It represents London as the best place to be in the UK and that it's better than Scotland. The lighting is high-key which also adds to the atmosphere that is created during the montage. After the London montage, we see how different London clubs/discos are compared to those in Scotland. They are much more lively as we see loads of people jumping up and down having fun.

They both obviously have flashing, colourful lights.

The Place Beyond The Pines - Scene Analysis

In upstate New York, two men (Ryan Gosling, Bradley Cooper), and later, their sons (Dane DeHaan, Emory Cohen) must deal with the unforeseen consequences of their actions.  In this clip, cinematography is shown throughout in every different shot.

There are a few tracking shots and pans when he is riding his motorbike. However most of this clip contains still camera shots where the camera focus on one thing rather than the ...

Amy scene analysis

In the first scene, Kapadi uses home footage to show how young and happy Amy was as an adolescent in 1998. We see a clip of her singing happy birthday to one of her best friends. It then skips forward to January 2001 and then six months later we see her in a rehearsal studio in North London. Kapadi again uses old footage that was shot of her in the studio. He uses voiceovers to give context to the home footage clips. He sometimes slows down the clips for it to fit with the voiceovers. This technique creates a more intense atmosphere especially towards the end of the film. Kapadi tends to display the lyrics of Amy’s songs on screen as she is singing, with more home footage playing in the background. The way he displays her lyrics on screen help the audience to understand the meaning of the song and perhaps how Amy was feeling at the moment in her life. The lyrics also tend to fade in and out as they are displayed. This technique is used multiple times throughout the film. Most of the...
