We noticed that within the scene, whilst the two characters were fighting, the camera shots were no longer than two seconds long. This gave the scene a really fast affect making it seem like the two fighting were moving extremely fast, when in reality they won't have been moving quite as fast.
Also we noticed that every shot was being panned around the characters so that not one camera shot was stationary, again giving the feel of much faster movement, adding to the illusion of a massivly fast and energetic fight.
Then after the fight, when one had the other at gun point, the camera shots had slowed right down and were now stationary. This helped to show how fast the sitiuation for the characters had changed and just how fast the fight had been before, in contrast to the stillness of the after the fight.
There were a few different types of camera shots used within the scene, many different medium close-ups were used to show how fast the upper part of the characters body's were moving and the emotion on their faces. There was also quite a few medium long shots used to show exactly what was happening and to make it feel like you were there watching what was going on, giving the illution of reality.
Then to end the scene one the good character has killed the badd guy there is a high angle shot to show the scene and everything around it, showing the people the good character has killed. This makes the audience watching impressed with the character as he has servived through all those people and gives a feel of peace as it is high up and out of danger, looking down on everything.
I personaly thought that the filming of this scene was very well done as it has good contrast between the energetic fighting to the stillness of death, also the movement of the camera giving the fast movement of the characters fighting makes it very affective. I would love to know what other people thought of the scene though so please comment if you felt differently about it!
