9 key frames



This first image shows Blake under hostage by Fox, Fox has a knife towards Blake's throat to show he is in power. I have shot this image in the way of rule of thirds to show how Fox has invaded the space of Blake by physically intimidating and dominating him. The shot also shows the location of the scene which is a field, this is to pay homage to the classic western.



This shot is to better establish the location as to also represent the isolation of John and to show his false image of weak against Fox's presence. This can also show how John being the older brother , can see himself as being independent as it is he who comes to his brothers aid.



This image shows John walking towards Fox. The image shows them opposite each other to portray that they are in conflict, Blake is in the middle to show that he is being used as leverage by Fox. John is closer and larger to show that he is a threat.





























This is similar as the picture above, but it shows the characters closer to each other to portray the tense atmosphere. The calm body language of John is in conflict with Fox's, as he has attached himself to Blake as if to use him as a shield, this announces his fear towards John's presence and how he uses Blake as his leverage.


This shot is an extreme close up of John's eyes, it portrays the character as mysterious and tense, this gives a mystery to his actions that he chooses to take in the current situation. It also portrays the seriousness of the moment.

This shot focuses on John putting his hand in his pocket to reveal the concealed gun he had in his pocket, it is a sign of his character being unpredictable, it is a low angle to show that Fox still has power even though it is false.


This shows John being bigger then Kruger to show that he has overpowered and dominated him, the facial expression on Kruger's face is of terror and fear to show his true character. The over the shoulder shot better displays the dominance of John
                     
This shows the dominance of the two brothers, as John's size is greater than Blakes', this is to show that he has more power than his brother and that he is in charge. The close space between the brothers shows the intimacy that they share and that they are a team and not in conflict with each other.

The image shows the brothers as equal, whilst Kruger in the background runs away as he has been beat and therefore falls back to safety. The close space of the brothers represents them as united against their enemy and how powerful they are as a team instead of individuals.
