Direction purpose-

uses techniques to build our concern/shots.

Other techniques-
  • Slow-motion- used to show us the details in the fight - too fast otherwise
  • Music-Minor slow tempo, Dynamics increase from quiet to help us focus and create atmosphere. S- In the fight sense between Julien and jack, camera angles are used effectively to draw the viewer into the scene. (E)This is demonstrative through the use of the angles, close up and Dutch tilt shots. The low angle shot makes Jack look stronger and more aggressive whilst Julien looks weak and vulnerable below him. (X)This makes the audience feel concerned, shocked and surprised because up to this point had always agreed with Julien. (X)The director did this to do draw viewer into the event and highlight Jack's struggle to choose between being right or being popular. (X) Combined with this is the use of slow-motion and music which helps us to see details on the character's faces and recognize the emotional reactions. (Y) This can be compared to the use of close-up shots at the start of the film when we we first meet Auggie. They are both used to show us a small part of a bigger moment.
