Cat & Alice - analysis



This is a high angle/over shoulder shot. Alice in being look down on over the cats shoulder showing how far she is down from where he is up in the tree he was resting on. This background is dark and dull creating a ery scene in the forest she's walking through. Gives off a mysterious feeling to the shot.

Mad hatter



The mad hatter is taken from a close up shot to emphasize on his facial expression. He is portrayed as a crazy character that's shown by his teeth, hair and eyes. The background is very dull but he is very bright and make up is done lively.

Shot analysis



This scene has been taken as a Low angle shot to create suspense and showing how high and risky the situation is. It is also a wide shot to show the perspective of the room, like he is in a in-closed inescapable room which could relate to his metal state. Colour of the lighting is dull and cold to create the feeling on isolation and him wanting to escape. These things are all carefully chosen.

Queen




This shot is a low angle/over shoulder angle which creates a feeling of power the queen has over the frog which is who's shoulder the camera is angled from. The onlooker placed in the background shows how powerful she is in her own palace and how they are try and look like her with their glued on big noses and ears, they are her followers. The makeup and acting really emphasis what is happening in this scene.
