Shot Size/Angle + Camera Movement

The Present – All the shots used are wide shots except for the very last shot of the fountain. These shots are used to establish Marshall University’s location in a small blue collar town and helps portray the lack of life following the football team’s plane crash. The first three shots over the mountains, river, and steel mill are high shots that track over the town. This makes the town look small and vulnerable on the university of its darkest day.
