Still Image Reflection


This still image looks like it was taken from the scene where Anderton and Witwer meet and Witwer is demanding to see the Temple and the Pre-Cogs.  You can tell in the background that it is pretty glassy which means they are probably in the Pre-Crime department, which led me to my guess as to when in the film this image takes place.

When looking at this image, the first points the viewer's eyes are drawn to are John Anderton and Detective Witwer.  Then you notice that right in the middle of the shot is another person, which then creates a triangle between the people.  The focal point is right in the middle of the picture, where Witwer and Anderton are starring at each other, but we can't see exactly what is going on because there is another guy in the foreground of the image blocking the middle of the shot.
Having Witwer and Anderton behind him at thirds marks, gives the audience a point-of-view as if the audience is outside of the group and not really apart of whats going.

Throughout the entire film, the lighting is always a blue tone that uses a lot of shadow and blaring light. The lighting in this scene really makes us focus on Witwer and Anderton because they are much more lit and it is the focus of the scene.  There is a lot more light on them and more shadow on the guy in the middle that is blocking our view.  The lighting kinda shows the tension between Witwer and Anderton and how they seem to be starring at each other.
