Analysis of still shots- Die Hard - ISL 3

This is a mid-shot but also a two shot, its shows an event happening and saves you from having to cut away to see the other character reactions and also could show action happening. Framing in the shot is also used, you can see that the characters are in the centre of the shot but the audience can also see what looks like the front part of a lorry and also you have something in the foreground obstructing the view of the character wearing the black coat. Composition is also present for the shot, The rule of thirds has been applied to the shot, you can clearly see that the two characters take up the middle band, this suggests that they are the most significant objects the shot and the audience may wonder what the object in the foreground is and why it’s there. This shot is a level shot, it might suggest that there is dialog and this they are equal or on the same side (good or bad).
