1. 2.) Pacific rim Analysis

2. Th
This low shot immediately sets
the action, cyber genre. It hints
at some sort of physical element
being involved, and shows
dominance through he low
angle.

3. The red lights constantly in the background
represent how the future may be involved and how it
is highly dependant on machine. The names appear with a strong digital-like font
and have been altered to look like computer screens.

4. This is the first shot we get of something weapon based
and this extreme close up reveals the size of the machine and the
filters on all the slides are dark with added shine.
The gun is pointed at the viewer putting them on edge.

5. This is the first time we see a
natural or less mechanic
structure, we can see conflict
and the metal arm is shining
making it look superior.

6. This extreme closeup of something
much smaller, a knife, is a
juxtaposition to the other shots which
are on a larger scale. The shine of
the metal and violence of the stab
indicate conflict.

7. Fast paced rock music is playing non-
diagetically in the background and the
shots are fast and dramatic. The
dominance of the machines is shown
through the low angle medium closeup.

8. This music acts as adrenalin and the
action/thriller connotations are
implied through this extreme close
up of an alien with its mouth open,
implying anger fighting.

9. Another juxtaposition occurs when this
two shot from a low angle is shown
compared to all the close ups that have
been shown previously. The helicopters
imply a wide scale battle and wide
scale destruction.

10. An image of the machines identity is shown and
we can see it is superior and powerful through
he shot and the bright lights coming from its
eyes. The hints of red,blue and white
throughout the whole sequence imply an
American background, or setting.

11. Towards the end we can see some
sort of logo or organisation branded on
a badge. The eagle suggests power
and pride, and the dramatic low angle
close up implies great size.

12. Finally we see all the machines in full
scale from a low angle and with a
blue/dark filter. There is light coming from
behind them which suggests power or
dominance and the title is shown in a
metallic font and is shown in front of the
robots.
