3. Establishing shots
• These shots were taken at Westminster
bridge.
• As camera man I wanted to take a shot which
focuses on the whole of these two famous
pieces of London culture. This allows the
audience to make a straight link between
London and our trailer, which tells the
audience where it was set.

11. Finding good shots
• To find get the best shot I experienced with
angles. I done this by laying on my back and
climbing on buildings. I done this to get the
best shots and the best representations.
• By climbing on buildings it made me get the
height which shows lower status and laying
on my back shows one of higher status.
