1) I personally feel this is the best shot throughout the whole film. Because of its amazing colour contrast, and the fantastic low angle. The whole of the shot is in black and white except for the shop below the apartments. This automatically draws the audiences eye to the main focus of the picture. This shot was used in an establishing shot, showing the audience where Amelie lives. Likewise the angle of the shot intriqued me, this was taken at a low angle, vertially on the floor. Showing the cafe and flats seem to be taller than useual. This helps them stand out more and brings them to the attention of the audience.
2) Again, this shot is one of my favourites too. It is when Amelie is in the cinema. The colours fantastically mix in together. The blue/gray colour reflecting onto everyones face from the film, and the red along the seats. This gives off a sense of realism to the audience because they can easily identify that her location is in the cinema. The colours are also used very well to set the tone and mood of the scene. At first glance it seems quite sinester to people who have not watched the film.
3) This scene in the film is one of my favourites of all the films i have watched in my life. The picture symmetrical, and very green. It is a low angle shot from the stream showing Amelie stone skipping, with the splash from the water also in the shot.
The director has clearly made Amelie stand out from the background in this picture, by making her wear a red dress, this costume makes her stand out from the background, allowing the audience to realise she is the main centre of attention. Nothing else.
From watching at Amelie and looking at several of the shots the director used it has given me fantastic ideas to take onto my A2 Production. From a variety of new shots, to how the simplest thing as the colour of someones costume can create a whole new meaning.
