... I find this scene very active in terms of the use of camera combined with the editing, which makes the scene flow. We also see pioneering editing and camera techniques that have paved the way for films we see today.
The kinds of areas within the use of camera field of film language are the use of Framing: this is where we see shots such as close ups (just above the head to the upper chest), Point of view shots (seen from characters point of view) and High angle shots (shot taken from above the character). ...
Also the Movement of the camera: This is important because it enhances the audience’s involvement in the action and also to direct our attention or emphasise a particular viewpoint. From a pan or panning shot (Horizontal movement of the camera) to Track or Tracking shot (camera on tracks moving forwards, backwards and sideways) all of these are to help draw the audience into the film and to create the atmosphere that they are in the film, they are actually there.
And last but not least the Style of editing used: There are ways of editing film which help to structure narrative, shape screen time, and thus create meaning for the audience. Jaws has many amazing editing techniques that I find help create a good audience reaction and therefore pulls them into the film. ...
The opening shot of the scene is an establishing shot which gives us the general view of location, the camera then moves in to identify the characters which are important within this scene – Pippit the Dog and Alex Kipner, we leave Pippit and his owner and track Alex along the beach.
