RESEARCH AND PLANNING - Narnis trailer analysis: Camera use

Camera use

Most of the camera use throughout this trailer is kept simple, and all attempt at dramatic effect is left to the music, lighting and sound. However, at the start of the trailer simple high and low angle shots are used to establish the social position of the children in comparison to the women who leads them to the house. After this high angle shots are consistently used to show that the children are out of their depth, and are extremely vulnerable. Particularly the high angle shot of Lucy as she pulls the cover of the large wardrobe, showing how big and important it is in comparison to her. The camera stays steady and there is little use of zooming or panning, this makes the overall appearance more professional.
