To create this scene, based on the phrase 'It's alive!', I utilized a low angle shot with a tilted camera. The idea behind this kind of framing is to indicate an uneasy atmosphere involving playing with a lot of power, in this case lightning.
By drawing in this fashion I learnt something about cameras in general; they are there to conjour a kind of presence within the story, and so therefore they should act in rhythm to the human eye, so when a camera tilts to either side, the head follows the eyes. If something is off the right hand side of the screen, the camera should tilt towards the subject.
It is also important not to mix up shots with each other, in my drawings, I had an extreme close up and a long shot in the same scene. It could result in a sort of sensory overload on part of the audience, so it is important to keep things focused on one thing at a time.
