Frame 8

This shot has been captured from a low angle, to demonstrate the dominance of Zoe's character and how the power increases as the film goes on. The frame has been stopped suddenly just as Zoe grabs for the camera, this displays her animalistic nature as if shes about to pounce on her prey . The natural lighting of the scene proved effective when transferred to black and white, as it makes the background seem as though  it is glowing, contrasting against the sinster framing/ mise-en-scene of Zoe. The camera also has the use of a  mid-shot to show both  the actions surrounding the character as well as the emotional facial expressions. This also sets the last scene up as well as Ana turns and stares at Zoe's wild like character before running away in terror.  I like how the frame position of the hand which seems almost clawed and very barbaric. It also reinforces her desire for catching her prey (Ana's character)
