Continuity Clip analysis



I will be analysing a clip from Ace Ventura: Pet Detective

The clip starts off with an establishing tilt of the building, this helps to start narrative flow so the audience know where the action is taking place. This is followed by what starts as a long shot with the car moving into space, but then turns into a pan as the car drives pass, this creates the effect that makes the audience feel like a person/bystander on the pavement witnessing this as he drives past. We then see his his reckless driving swerving from side to side and then we get a reaction shot of two men looking at what appears to be awful driving. He then makes a very smooth hand brake turn/ hand brake park. We then have a very big jump in framing from the whole car to his head and shoulders, but it works because when he says "like a glove" it gives him a cocky bigheaded demeanour. going from the parking of the car to his dialogue is a shot reverse shot, used effectively to jump to the most important information, the dialogue.
