After watching The Bouncer I picked up on a few effects regarding the lighting, camera movements and sound.
Constant quick change of camera angle and protagonist’s fast speaking makes audience feel as if they need to keep up. This effectively sustains audience engagement.
Difference in lighting between the two locations… The gym has harsh bright lighting which enables the audience to view them fully for what they are. Just human. This lighting takes away the mystery and ‘untouchable’ aura that the dim nightclub lighting gave them.
When John is killed there isn’t any diegetic audio which effectively builds intensity. For the first time in this short film we aren’t trying to keep up to the fast paced camera movements and speech. Instead we are able to just reflect and take in what is happening.
