Brief Screening Report

Lights, Camera, Action.. Those are the words that you would hear if you were behind the scenes in making a movie. Within the first ten minutes of the movie Lost In Translation directed by Sofia Coppola I knew there was going to be amazing artistic choices throughout the movie. I was exactly right on that prediction. There were so many scenes with amazing colors, lighting, camera angles, and just in general backgrounds. After some long thought out decisions I decided that the most important scene happens within the first five minutes of the movie. This first five minute scene is absolutely breath taking and makes you feel like you are right there in the scene in person. I think that scene is key to the movie because it helps us to understand where the movie is taking place and being filmed. Within this scene you able to see all the amazing street and building lights on the streets of Tokyo, in a night time view. This is not only an extraordinary view, but it also allows us to know where the movie we are about to watch is taking place. I think the key part to all the beautiful lights is the camera angle used to shoot all the lighting on the streets of Tokyo. I believe that the camera angle was absolutely perfect because you could see all the colors that stood out on every sign and you could also see the full names of the businesses that were in the scene and even some that were a little bit further away. The picture below is not the exact scene from the movie but it is pretty close to the original scene. What do you think of this image?
