Research into camera movement for chosen genre.

                                    POV examples
Extreme Close-ups create an intense mood and provides interaction between the audience and the viewer. Extreme close ups are common for horror movies. In a lot of scary movies, you have a handheld camera... Everything feels really still and uninteresting when its on a tripod. Also in horror movies it's better to have the camera a lot closer to the action / actors. Most people use camera movement to create a "calm,horror,calm,horror" feel to the film. Also in Halloween and Friday the 13th POV shots are used which allows the audience to 
see through the eyes of the killer/character.For our opening sequence we're going to use a variety of shots, to set this "calm,horror,calm,horror" mood a long with the fee
l of crime and suspense. We're not just going to use extreme 
close-ups the whole way through, only for the best/most affective parts of action.
