Establishing shot - This shows the setting which is currently a giant crater hole which could be the Grand Canyon. This sets the scene for the viewer very quickly so we know where its set.
Long shot - This shot shows the whole of Ethan
hunt (Tom Cruise) to show his outfit and to
recognise who it is. Some of the background is
also shown so we can see the setting of the opening.
Mid shot - This shot Tom Cruise from the waist
upwards. This emphasises his body language
and the fact that he is quite sweaty as he is
climbing up a sheer rock face. His emotions
are also more visible than in a long shot.
Close up - This shot show's Tom's head and
shoulders. This shot is used so we can clearly
see his emotions, which look quite confused
and also a bit scared that he might fall.
Extreme close up - This shot shows only one
small aspect of something, to show importance
to the object, in this case the glasses.
Point of view shot - In this shot we see something from the characters perspective, and we become the character. In this image we can see the inside of the glasses what Tom will see when he is putting them on.
Reaction shot - This shot shows the characters
reaction to something that has happened. Here,
Tom is laughing, as the agency has just sent him
some glasses which will inform him of his next
mission.
Shot reverse shot - This shot is used in dialogue to show facial expression while people are talking. Here, the two agents are talking while they are hiding from the bad guy.
High angle - This shot is when the camera is
higher up than the character, this makes them
look small and weak.
Low angle - This angle shows authority and power. Here, Tom is just about to attack one of the bad guys so it shows him as being a hero.
Eye level shot - This is when the camera is on the same level as the character. This shot creates empathy and understanding for the character. In this shot the camera is at the same level as Tom's face.
Low key lighting - This is when there is only one source of light and it is quite dark. Here, only Tom's eyes are in light and the rest of his face is in darkness. There is only one source of light, the screen.
High key lighting - This is when there is bright
lighting and there are no shadows on the persons
face. There is a lot of light, as it is day time and there is an explosion going off,
Tracking shot - In this shot the camera moves and follows someone. Here, the camera is following Tom up the rock face as he is climbing.
Zoom shot - In this shot, the camera stays still and zooms in. Here, the camera is zooming in on Tom's face to show his expression.
Panning shot - This shot is where the camera stays still and rotates left to right. Here, the camera spins around to see the characters expression.
Tilt shot - This shot is where the camera tilts up and down in a vertical pan. In this shot, the camera tilts up to show the setting and the reaction to seeing the glasses.
