The movie is about two companies that are trying to take dinosaurs from extinction and also to stay away from them. The name of the companies were inGen and ..... they live on an island somewhere around Costa Rica called Isla Sorna. One of the companies are trying to get rid of the dinosaurs and the other one is trying to stay away from so them can learn to live by itself to have its freedom.
Low Angle shot:
One of the techniques used in the movie was the low angle shot. The low angle shot is used when trying to make something look bigger from below. It is a camera angle used only on the ground when trying to make something look bigger when shown on the screen when watching the movie. One of the examples in the movie is when Doctor Malcom and Sarah Harding were at the port and the ship was moving to fast because the dinosaur ate all the people in the ship and they all died so the ship had no one to control. When the ship crashed onto the harbour the dinosaur was locked up under the ship. There was this big opening that the dinosaur was kept in and one of the port officers saw the opening trying to open. He took the switch and pushed the red button and the door opened and that is when the dinosaur came out of its hiding and it stood up strong and tall and that is when the low angle shot comes in. I could actually see the dinosaur really big on the screen because of the low angle shot.
I don't think the movie makers made it successfully to earn their camera angles especially the low angle shot I think they would've put more effort with their camera shooting.
The theme of the movie:
In my opinion I think the message is trying to tell the people that dinosaurs can not only be extinct if we look after them very well because they can live for themselves. The only reason why humans try to kill them is because they may be dangerous especially the T-rex and others that are carnivores. Most of the dinosaurs are not that dangerous because most of them are vegetarians. Another reason why people kill dinosaurs is because they can be good for history research.
Medium Long Shot:
One of the other techniques used in this movie was the medium long shot. The medium long shot is when someone is trying to capture a good clear image and he/she zooms in and stops at a certain amount of space between the object and the camera so it can get a really good clear look of the object when it passes by or when it goes over or under. One of the examples used in the film is when during the last minutes of the movie the movie showed all the dinosaurs that were back at the Isla Sorna island where they were kept. That is when the medium long shot comes in and shows all the creatures walking slowly across the camera and the medium long shot gave the viewers a really good clear image to see so they can see whats happening in the movie.
I really enjoyed the film. It was really easy to understand that there are two companies. One of the companies are trying to play around with nature to use dinosaurs as historical use in the museum. And another company is trying to save the dinosaurs from the other company.
High angle:
The high angle is when there is a shot which the subject is photographed/filmed from above.
An example in the movie was when doctor Malcolm and his daughter and the others were on the island and they saw a helicopter from above, that is when the high angle shot comes in, it is taken from above the ground.
I think I the scenes and images in the movie are average. Maybe its because its an old film and the movie only is based on the main images in the movie or the scenes because they were not really easy to understand Eg: Why is this image here in this scene and why is this image there in that scene.
Close Up:
the close up angle is when the camera gets close to the subject and it tries to make the image clearer and so everybody that's watching the movie can see what's exactly happening in the movie. In the movie... a very good example was when the bad company came to the island near Costa Rica (Isla Sorna) and they were chasing the dinosaurs and there were two men in a mini little cool car. They were chasing the dinosaur and they were getting closer, as they were going closer the close up and of the camera came closer so the audience can get a good look at the dinosaurs.
I like this film but I also thought this film can not be this short. The only reason why I think it was short because I think it can only be used in class when watching the movie because if the movie was longer, the students would write a long paragraph like what I just did. So I think its better if the film was shorter. The character that I like in the movie is doctor Malcolm. It's because he is tryingo save the dinosaurs and that's kind. I liked how he treated his daughter with good care and how he's just a really good person in the movie.
To conclude I would like to say how much I really love this movie and how I got to write a short story about it. I think this film could be a really good movie for a dinosaur encyclopedia in schools.
