Whats happening-
Other Wybie is standing on the stairs outside the other house. Other mother tells him to smile from the doorway, instead he frowns.
Other Wybie was making himself smaller -less of a target-head down, shoulders hunched. He also looks sad and vulnerable.
Angles/Shots:
Highe angle- makes Wybie look overpowered, weak & vulnerable.
POV- Other mother, makes herself seem stronger, bigger and more dominant.
Viewer:
Makes the viewer feel sorry for the other Wybie.
Director:
Foreshadowing/hinting at what is coming from the other mother.
Hinting that maybe the other mother isn't so wonderful.
Other Techniques:
Lighting- spotlight on Wybie- like he's on the spot
Dark around creates a creapy atmosphere
In the scene the other mother and the other wybie we see a high angle shot used to show the theme "Looks can be deicving". We see this when the other mother asks the other wybie to smile but instead he frowns and hunches his shoulders over. This makes the audience feel sorry for the other Wybie because he looks scared. The use of a high angle shot from the other mother mother adds to this feeling as it makes the other Wybie look weak and vulnerable. The director did this to forshadow the change of the other mother from creep to even more creepy. Coinciding with this is the use of lighting, a spotlight is on the other Wybie emphasising that he is under the focus of the other mother. This reminds us of earlier in the film where a low angle shot was used to make Wybie seem big and scary but he is really a nerd. This links to the scene because it also shows a momment when the look of a character was decieving.
