CAMS
- A- Angles in the movie are usually wide, and separated from the character, and the usage of two shots and over the shoulders are barely even used in the movie, this is done to create isolation in the character.
- M- Tracking shots are often used to follow the main character, Lou, around as he walks around during the movie.
- S- Sound is mostly diegetic and it allows the audience to feel as if they are with the character, especially since its at night and very isolated.
- C- Costumes in the movie are clothing that regular people would wear in everyday life as the movie takes place during current day America
- L- The lighting in the movie is very dark, as the majority of the movie takes place during the night, so the lighting is that of light posts and the lights often seen outside during the night, making it a very natural lighting.
- A- The acting in the movie is very intense, and the main actor, Jake Gyllenhaal, gives a very creepy performance, with his character slowly descending into madness and infatuation with his job.
- M- The make-up is much like the costumes as in that it is very light and meant to show everyday people, so there is not much make up.
- P- Props used in the movie are the main characters camera, technology like computers and phones, as well as cars both civilian and police cars.
- S- The setting of the movie is current day Los Angeles, and the areas through it and close to it.
- The movie features a lot of different types of sound, mostly diegetic though, as it creates a more realistic feeling in the movie. The soundtrack is very dark, and fits well with the theme of the movie, with it being so dark, it reflects not only the lighting of the movie but the overall feeling of it as well.
- The editing in Nightcrawler is very reminiscent of movies in the same genre but it is very different as well. It consists of sequences with a lot of jump cuts, but also contains long sequences where cutting is very few and far in between making the audience feel as if they were a nightcrawler as well, following leads, and getting stories.
- Nightcrawler is a very dark and mysterious movie that truly fits into the crime genre. from the overall plot of the movie that truly fits in into the crime genre. The movie has very dark lighting, something very commonly found in crime movies, and it features very dramatic and crazy acting that drives the story forward.
- I liked the overall movie a lot, and it was a very enjoyable movie. The dark themes and the dark descent from the main character. It definitely fit in into the crime genre and I would definitely use it as an inspiration for the project that I will be making.
- There really was not anything major that I did not like in the movie, and I felt that what I did not like were just small little nitpicks that really did not effect the overall movie, and its themes or what I took away from it
