A Shot I Love.

In our lecture we were asked to think about one shot we love and write a quick passage saying why we loved it. I chose to look at a one shot scene from "Warrior King", these are the notes i made on why i love the shot (as written in the lecture):
One shot, six minutes, the camera is used well to move over balconies to follow people that fall. Camera moves up the stairs following the action but focus not just on main character, moves into rooms see the wider picture of what is going on and then moves quickly to catch up to the action.
the following clip is the shot I was refering to:


We were then asked how we thought we might incorporate that into our own documentary. The only way i could think of to use Warrior King as an influence would be to actualy move the camera through the house from one focal point to another.
