Phone Booth and Bad Boys 2

The begining of phone booth is very clever, it uses CGI to look up in space at a satelite, whilst playing gospel music, it then zooms in really quickly on New York, i think it then zooms in on Time Square, this is all probably done using CGI, which is beyond our abilities to do in our film.
There are some sounds in the background with the music, there is a bust of static and the sound of many mobile phones and cars. The narrator then starts talking.

We then see the main character, whoi is made to look as steriotypically like a PR man as possible, they achieve this by showing him talking on the phone to lots of different people in quick succession, he puts lots of people on hold, he talks really fast, wears sun glasses, seems to know what hes talking about and very good at persueding people into doing what he wants. He is a very steriotypical character, he smokes, makes spur of the moment decisions and acts like he is superior to everyone. The character also has the inexperienced young helper to do all his work for him and follow him around.

The character is quite rude to a lot of people and acts like a steriotypical New Yorker, he swears a lot to show he means what he is saying and he becomes very paranoid when something out of the ordinary happens.

The film is very clever because the character gets stuck in a single place, this makes it very easy to film because it means there wont have to be many expensive shots.

Bad Boys 2

At the begining of Bad Boys 2 there is some text at the bottom of the screen saying where the place is. There is then lots of close up shots of machinery with the titles being played over them with some electro music being played in the background. There is a "blip" sound as text is shown quickly on the screen. The camera moves quickly and never really stops moving throughout.

There is then lots of dialogue from lots of different people and then it cuts to another scene of people being briefed for a mission. The scene is filmed at night in the dark, so that there is shadows. There is then a clip through a night vision camera, which gives a good point of view shot from the swat team.

A slow motion shot is then used as the main characters suprise the KKK, the main characters act quite steriotypical as american black men. Then there is a lot of quick movements for when one of the main characters is taken hostage, the camera then circles the hostage and the other main character gets angry whilst there is a lot of close ups on the hostages face.

When they start attacking each other there is alot of gun shot sounds and sparks flying, this is acompanied by some fast music. There is then more slow motion and a CGI bullet flies through the air and makes blood spray as it hits its target.

There are a few techniques that could be used but alot of the ones used in this film are beyond our abilities, as they are too much work, hard to do or too expensive.
