I have placed Nathan above the camera, taking up most of the
shot. This shows that Nathan has power as the camera is looking up at him from
a low angle. Nathan is also the dominant subject in the shot, taking up a lot
of the picture. I like the angle that the camera is at when the photo was taken
because you get the full view of what Nathan is doing, the combined low angle
and Nathan looking away from the camera makes this shot seem more dramatic.
(This next one isn’t a picture from a camera, instead it’s a
screenshot from a game that I took.)
The way this picture
has been framed you can clearly see the balance of power between these two
people and how significant they are. The camera shot used is a two shot, from
this you can tell that they are some how connected, they cannot be socially
connected as the man in purple is in the foreground and the man in the back is
further in the background. The positioning of the two people also highlights
which one is more powerful. The man in the purple armour is more authoritative
because of his placement in the shot, he is placed in the foreground with the
camera below eye level looking up at him making him seem much bigger and more influential
in contrast to the other man. Another way you can tell is by looking at the
clothes they are wearing, the man in the background is wearing plain beige
armour and helmet, this could suggest he is a grunt or conscript with little to
no authority. However the man in the foreground is wearing purple/black armour
with muscle definition and a matching helmet, the purple colour advocates that
this person is enigmatic and possibly has supernatural abilities. The helmet
supports this by showing that he is faceless, an anonymous hero/anti-hero. The armour
muscle definition also shows he has power by showing the audience how resilient
and strong he is, unlike the person following who's clothes have no muscle
definition.
