Interrogation Scene - Camera Techniques

The Camera techniques in this scene are also kept simple, there are a lot of still shots and not much shaky cam until the last few seconds. We used a dolly/moving tripod for some of the shots but most of them had to be cut out, to shorten the length of the video. We had one shot of the dolly crossing the 180 degree line just in case we broke the 180 degree rule at any point.

 This is an extreme close-up of Jessica's eye. She is looking down so her actual eye is not visible, holding back her personality/character from the audience.

It might have been more effective to get an even more extreme close up of here eye, to accentuate it further.
 This Security-Cam shot was filmed using the same HD Camera but then altered in Adobe After-Effects to have a static effect and an outline with a Frame, Words, Numbers, a logo and a 'REC' Notice.

The Flashing Red-Dot was created using 'Key-Frames' in After Effetcs. The boxing within the frame was designed on paint and altered in Adobe Photo-Shop, before being exported into this scene.
This shaky-cam shot needed to increase the tension and suspense after Andrew had Shot the other Interrogator who I acted as. He is helping her get her freedom, and escape the force of authority which a captured her.

This shaky-cam moment is meant to contrast with the slow-paced nature of everything which came before it.
