Camera Movement and Editing

 

Camera Movement

1: Handheld

The camera has a visible shake to it, almost like it was handheld. The shakiness adds to the action packed nature of the chase, making it feel more frantic and urgent as the character has to put up a fight to get out of his situation.

2: Crane

We can clearly see the camera follow the character up, as he progresses up through the building. It's most clear when he's climbing the ladder; the camera follows him as he climbs. This adds a more "epic" feel to the scene, with it also feeling very dramatic.

3: Tilt

Going back to the ladder scene, we can also notice the camera tilting up/down. As the character is climbing, the camera tilts up a lot, to the point where we can see the character vertically. As the character is fighting, the camera tilts down to show the action. This helps make the character feel more powerful, as he's beating and evading an entire group of police.

Editing

1: Match cuts

Throughout the scene, we can notice match cuts that directly cuts to another part of the action, rather than to a different scene. This type of cut helps make the scene feel way more frantic and active, as the shot isn't very static.

2: Pace

The pace of the editing and it's shots is very fast, thrilling and energetic. Considering the clip consists of a chase sequence, the energetic nature the pace brings is very much needed to add more excitement.

The Skittles in the background are arranged in a rainbow, referencing it's slogan, "Taste the rainbow". - The background is a cloudy sky, further emphasising the rainbow theme of the sweets. - It's slogan, "Taste the rainbow", refers to the many fruity flavours Skittles has, and how colourful they are. - It's colour scheme is bright red with the frequent use of rainbows; this makes Skittles much more recognisable, and sets up a brand identity. 2) The USP (unique selling point) is the fact that Skittles come in many colours and flavours, allowing you to have a different taste experience from other sweets/candy brands.
