Cinematography Techniques

One Point Perspective: The camera is centred and draws the viewers attention towards the centre of the scene which creates an unsettling/eery atmosphere

A Clockwork Orange, Kubrick [1971]

Symmetry: Both sides of the screen are identical to each other and balance each other out which makes the viewer feel unease due to unnaturally perfect the scene looks

Moonrise Kingdom, 2012 [Wes Anderson]

Deep Focus: Allows everything on screen to be in focus at the same time

2001:A Space Odyssey, 1968 [Kubrick]

Steadicam Tracking Shots: Allows the shot to be steady whilst following the character/object around the scene
