Witches film essay By Max B


Nicolas Roeg is the director of the witches movie in 1990. roeg used lots of technique like cross cutting,special effects,editing and camera angles.Nicolas based the movie on the book by Roald Dahl in 1983.

Roeg put in stuff that make the audience fell sick,uncomfortable this makes people jump back in there seats.Roeg also did close up so you're facing the person well the background is all fuzzy.Also Roeg used zoom in so from a far way angle then it quickly or slowly zooms in.

Roeg used a technique called high angle.This angle was used to zoom in from a high place. It was used in the movie when the witch looked at a girl from her high window. This angle is used to help the audience see what the characters are looking at.


Tail away is another technique that Roeg used. The way its used is that the character walks away from the camera. In the movie this technique when the car drove away from the hotel with Grandma and Luke in it. This made the viewer fell safe.

Roeg used these techniques to understand the movie the witches.
