Batman still


This still from the movie 'Batman Begins' features the title protagonist dropping down a stairwell. The hero's black cape fills most of the shot making him stand out agains the light background. The low-angle shot looks up at Batman as he drops to the floor, this view looking up is the best angle for showing the action taking place and making it more personal - it is as if the viewer is actually there. The stairs are very ornate and expensive-looking showing the owner of the building must be quite rich. The shot could be without music to put emphasis on the slight 'swoosh' noise form Batman's cape as he falls.
