2. The scene from Taken that we are analysing is a
fairly simple scene. The first nine shots are just of
the main character (Kim) Moving through the
house as the camera changes angle around her.
So nothing Fancy
Taken’s Nine Shots
3. : This is fairly simple, a camera being
held still on a tripod as it angles slightly
left as Kim moves.
: This is the same scene, but with a
different camera positioned slightly more
to the left and not zoomed in. This is a
long shot.
First Two Shots
4. : This third shot is when Kim moves
through the door to the left. Again, it is a
long-medium shot.
: On this fourth shot, it switches to Bryan
sitting at home on his chair, on the phone
with Kim.
The Second Two Shots
5. : On the fifth shot is switches back to a
medium close-up of Kim still on the phone
running through a corridor.
: On the sixth shot it (Again) switches to
Bryan on the phone. This time he is stood
up and the shot is a medium close-up.
Shots 5-6
6. :These two shots need absolutely no
explanation what so ever as they are
practically identical to the two
previous shots.
Shots 7-8
7. :This shot is almost identical to the
previous shot featuring Kim, except
that she has just opened a door and
went into another room (The
bathroom).
The Final Shot
