Activity 1 Moonlight

Diegetic – This is medium close up shot of Little, this shot forces the audience to focus on Littles side profile and his expression in relation to the emotion he feels in the rising action of Moonlight. This makes the audience feel a connection to the subject in order to sympathise and relate to the troubles Little experiences in early life.

Intra Diegetic – This shot allows the audience to adopt Chiron viewpoint looking at Kevin, this paints Chiron as a vulnerable and troubled person. By looking through Chiron’s perspective the audience feels a sense of regret from Kevin as he doesn’t want to hit us.

Extra Diegetic- This shot allows the subject to break the 4th wall, as Kevin looks past the camera as if he is looking at us, the audience. This abolishes the personal relationship we formed with Black and instead we are shocked with a sense of reality as we realise we are just on lookers experiencing the story.
