The first shot of the clip shows a women who appears to be at her wedding walking down the aisle, she appears to be happy until she hears a flute which is when she suddenly changes from being happy to being confused or shocker. This is done with a medium shot that tracks her backwards, so that we can see her expression and know how she feels, as well as seeing the background and to give us a sense of her surrounding at what her current situation is. Therefore, I can see that she must be happy since it appears to be a wedding and this makes me feel calm and happy, because I know that at a wedding there is a low chance of any trouble happening and that it tends to be rather peaceful. However, the scene is also in black and white, so when I first see it I feel quite confused and start to question if it is a dream or a flashback.
The next shot is where we can see even more of the church, and we also get to see the door to the outside. This is done by using a point of view shot with a long shot, and this is done so that we can see more of the setting and get the full idea that it is a wedding, and it also lets us know what she is currently thinking and where she is hearing the music from, which creates mystery and made me want to know what was happening outside that caught her attention and changed her mood.
After that we get another shot where we see the woman being confused and then grasp her hands together and begin walking towards the entrance of the church where the sound of the flute appears to be coming from. To create this a mid shot was used to further show her confusion and curiosity, and then another tracking shot is used which tracks her backwards again. I can see from her reaction that the flute must be something that she recognises judging by the fact that she is curious and not just ignoring it, this makes me want to more what is outside and also why she is so curious about the sound.
The shot that is next just shows the doorway again but this time the bride begins to walk past and move towards the right of the doorway of the doorway and lean against the pillar. We just see this as the camera tracks the bride forward and moves into another long shot, and I can see from the way she moves casually tells me that there is no danger, but is instead something she knows is safe.
In the next shot we see both the bride and the source of the sound which is an old man who is playing the flute while sitting on a bench, we see this through a low angle shot with the man on the right and the bride on the left further away from the camera. From this I assumed that the two people had no correlation and do not associate with each other because she does not immediately engage with the man on the bench but instead look into the desert.
The next few shots is just a series of close up reverse shots between the two people, with the length of the shots becoming shorter and shorter raising tension and suggesting that something serious is about to happen. I can see from the brides face that she does recognise the man and may be slightly scared of him.
The final shot in that sequence is when the man finally stops playing his instrument and turns to acknowledge the bride and speaks to her, we see his face through a close up so we can see that he does know the bride and probably well because he calls her 'kiddo' which means he must have known her when she was a lot younger.
In the shot after we see the bribe reply to him and ask him a question, we see this from a low angle medium long shot, which shows that she is more important than the man sitting down. We also begin to see at this point that the bride is always on the right of the camera with the man being on the left side of the camera. The bride is also still facing away from the man so I can see that you does not really feel comfortable with him and doesn't exactly want to be speaking with him. The next two shots are just more close up shots of characters in a conversation with very little movement, but I can still see that she progressively gets more comfortable with him.
The next shot we see the man finally stand up and begin to walk towards to bride which shows that he is comfortable with her presence and is familiar with her, the camera pans up and to the right to follow him as he stands and moves closer to the bride. The shot after we see that the bride is now facing towards to man so I know that she is becoming more comfortable and is directly speaking to him which shows that she does know him well. The shots once again switch between mid shots of the two people and their emotions.
The next shot we see that she begins to move close towards the man as she begins to understand that he isn't causing trouble but instead is trying to be sweet, so the camera does a close up on her face to show her reaction which is happy, while is tracks her to the left as she moves. The few shots then switch between her feet and her face, to his feet and his face, showing their expressions as well as showing that they are getting more and more comfortable with each other. It finally ends when the camera stops tracking them and shows both their feet coming together at the same time.
Next is a very long shot of a conversation between the two, it uses a close up which shows the expressions and their emotions between them. I can see from it that she is rather happy to see him and is finally comfortable with speaking with him since she got so close to him, I also see that while she is mostly happy she also has mixed emotions, while the man tends to have the same expression and emotion throughout. After the long shot ends it then proceeds onto a series of over the shoulder shots from each person, and throughout the conversation we can see that the two are very close as they know a lot about each other, and even though he is quite intimidating, he still tries to be sweet.
