Taken [2008] - The kidnap scene clip

Watch from 2:19 - 3:09



I plan to use the camera angles used between these times when the daughter in this film is about to be kidnapped. I felt when watching this particular scene that, with the camera angles used and the limitation of what you can see of the kidnappers; it gave me more freedom to imagine what they looked like, which was a lot scarier then they actually were when we saw who they were later on in the film.

I plan to copy certain aspects of this particular scene by using the angles Pierre Morel [Director] uses and the fact you can't see the hit man's face.

However I plan on hiding Damien's [my hit man] top half of his body until he is in the bedroom, and this will be from Bethany's [the little girl] point of view from under the bed. When Damien hears her from under the bed, he will jump into view when he bobs down that will skip to a blackout.

 This should enforce shock on the audience.
