I am a fans of The lord of the Ring and I am going to do a short review about it. First of all, the first frame opens with a Long Shot. We are shown snow-capped mountains and a sunrise with the sun shining on the snow, which establishes where the action will take place. The first movement the camera makes is a crane shot looking from above down onto the mountains, showing the beauty of the mountains but also prepares the viewer for the unforgiving territory which the harsh action will take place in. The next shot is a panning shot of the mountains where the camera moves backwards and forward. This shows the great might of the mountains where they grow in power and intensity. There is a contrast of light from the sun and the bright blue sky to the shadows over the mountains. This is High lighting to give a realistic effect with natural light. The mountains still look beautiful, still and quiet but the non-diagetic sound of the wind is heard in the background under the eerie orchestral music, which is still to be heard. The camera retreats in a panning shot, which suddenly gets faster, this makes the viewer unable to anticipate what is coming to the screen and creates an uneasy feeling. This gives the effect of the camera falling away, which is a symbol of what Gandalf will experience later when he falls down the mine.
