ACTION
Taken
Camera work
Shots in the film that involve conversation are close up, this shows the characters
emotion, making the intense dialogue seem more extreme. Many of the actions shots in
the trailer are shot at a medium to long range.This allows the viewer to see all the fast
paced action going on and not becoming confused if the action was shot close up.
Mise-en-scene
The whole film is centered around this one main hero so the meis en scene used highlights
him throughout the film.This is shown through the lighting in many of the more serious
shots where the character is narrating the lighting is dark and all light is focused on his
face.This gives him the most attention in the scene and creates a more tense atmosphere
for the film.
Editing
The editing especially in the trailer of the film is made up of short cuts during the action
scenes and long close ups during the narrative.The fast cuts during action make the scene
feel more fasted paced and shows off a ruthlessness of the protagonist as he moves on
through the scene from one person to the next not looking back.The cuts used in these
actions scenes are not smooth they are very sharp and deliberate this is also reflected on
to the main protagonist usually fighting or chasing a ‘bad guy’. During the narrative scenes
the short smooth editing between shots portrays as being very thought through, this
again reflects on the protagonist of the film.
Characters and events
The protagonist of the film is usually alone in the film with maybe one other character
who is close to them may it be partner or family member. For many action films and
specifically this one the protagonist performs the stunts seen in the film for the well being
of that family member and to save them. Generally the backstory of these characters
portrays everyone who is not that one family member to be against them.This builds the
emotional bond between the two characters and switches the audiences perspective to
look in the same way and be against everyone else in the movie.
Narrative
There is one noticeable narrative I picked out of the film when watching it, that being a
sequence of flash backs during the scene he’s searching the apartment where his daughter
was taken.This shows to the audience even though we saw what happened before hand
that the protagonist can assess a scene and understand what happened backed up with
the use of flashbacks.
