- This is the establishing shot for this sequence. It has been setup as a pan background to use the lab equipment to enhance the visual impact of the scene. It could have been set up as the standard 3/4 downshot or the longshot showing the entire lab but I’ve chosen the pan to use the shapes of the beakers and test tubes to cause some visual distortion to the background elements. This helps to foreshadow the change that Dr. Jekyll will be going through later in the sequence. - Moves in towards Dr. Jekyll and shows his intensity in relation to the experiment he’s conducting. - Here, I want to put an emphasis on the vial and Dr. Jekyll looking at the contents. -This scene backs up the previous scene and brings the vial into more prominence. Again the distortion of Jekyll’s eye in the liquid is another form of foreshadowing as in scene 1. - Jekyll questions his decision to go forward with the experiment. We need to pull out to a wider shot to show Jekyll’s emotions. - Moving in to a tighter shot to emphasize Jekyll’s turmoil and exhaustion. - Tight shot to give a more frantic feel to the sequence, focussing on the eyes. This is the moment he makes the final decision to go ahead and take the liquid himself. The turning point or point of no return in the film. A very important scene. |
