some recent nice ones:





actually the last one is not a shot. it's  146 shots put together.

The closing shot to Chris Steele's "Comfort Blanket" looks pretty symmetrical, with the protagonists holding hands, and a slow motion, trancelike feeling.  It cuts out really abruptly, leaving an imprint of them in silhouette, if you blink over the closing titles.

Yeah...That is a pretty cool effect.  Kind of disorients you.  Surely 'Perfect Eyes' is a contender for the crucifix shot as well, but that isn't static.

At the beggining (and ending) of City of God. there's a shot that involves a chicken running under a van.  That's complex...

[Pubrick]

sorry chuck, but after like 20 pages i think we know what composition means in reference to shots.

how many more times do i hav to say, this is a single frame, take a single frame and hang it on ur wall. that's what this has been about. it's what made it fun. what ur talking about is favorite sequence. that's a whole lotta shots.

it's not even up for discussion.

i apologize, but if i started a thread about it, i'd probably be redirected.
