1. T HE TAXI DRIVER
By Aimee Sherry

2. A Extreme Close up is used to show the taxi drivers eyes, he doesn't’t look very happy and his
skin is very red. Having a male showing no expression could mean he's a cop which is a
convention on Film Noir.

3. A Medium Shot s used to show the heavy rain dripping on the car window. You can see the
bright different coloured lights from the shops and bars outside which give it the Film Noir feel.

4. This Long Shot shows the audience that the film is in a busy city with cars going past and
neon lit shops. Having the city at the night is a convention of film noir.

5. A Medium Shot shows the taxi drivers point of view, the audience can see teenagers walking
across the road into a night club. Red smoke is coming from the floor which gives the shot a
dangerous atmosphere.

6. An Over The Shoulder Shot shows the taxi driver coming into his office, there is a man
smoking in front of him which is a convention of Film Noir.

7. A Close Up on the Tax Drivers face is used to show the audience that he doesn't’ show no
expression, he has a untidy stubble and is dressed casually.

8. A Over The Shoulder shot shows two men arguing on the other side of the window, also the
Taxi driver talking to the man in the office who is dressed untidy wearing glasses and has
facial hair.

9. A Low Angle Medium Shot shows the taxi driver and a old women in the background. The
walls are brown and have old papers on the wall.

10. A Low Angle medium shot shows the conversation between them both. There is a eye line
match when the men are talking to each other. The man who drives a taxi is looking down at
the man at the table which means he's me superior.
