Different shots began to be taken, at least eighteen shots were taken from different angles, including wide shots or establishing shots used to provide context to a scene to the viewer, without the need for words, describing a location in the landscape or environnt of the protagonists. Typically, they are seen walking, a shadow, not focusing on any subject; their grace lies in distinguishing the place where the events may or may not take place.
For example, Woody Allen is known for quickly shooting all the locations at the beginning of the film, a wide shot that captures the essence of the city he is filming in.
David Fincher uses both wide shots and the ¾ shot or Arican shot, highlighted by a framing of the setting, where the actor is only seen from the waist up, which began to gain recognition because Western movies narrated different stories in the 1960s and 70s.
One scene is set in a church, and the second one focuses on Morgan Freeman, the detective of the case, from a different perspective, a ¾ shot, with a voice-over narrating the intricacies of the cri, more than just a cri, but the ins and outs of the cri, in a colloquial tone, as if narrated by an ordinary person recounting a situation, already beginning to create a suspenseful atmosphere.
Morgan Freeman, or Sorset, walks towards a wall where the current wallpaper is peeled off to reveal a floral wallpaper underneath. He runs his finger over one of the pale red roses decorating the older wallpaper. He brushes off the dirt and highlights the rose more clearly. He pulls the edge of the wallpaper, carefully tearing off a roughly square section with the rose in the center.
...
Cut to the next shot.
The scene changes; they are in an old, ruined house, while Sorset is captured, this ti in another shot observing a cri scene, again using a ¾ shot, and a close-up focusing on Morgan Freeman.
-The neighbors heard them arguing for 2 hours; it was nothing new, a cri of passion. Look at all that passion on the wall. -
-It's a closed case, nothing else to discuss for , - a detective comnted loudly as if that were all that mattered to him.
-The kid saw it, - Morgan Freeman asked carefully.
-What? - the detective, his partner, asked, stunned.
-The kid saw it, - Sorset asked again.
-What kind of question is that? We'll all be glad when you leave. Who cares what happens? He's dead, his wife killed him, the rest doesn't matter to us, - he seed annoyed, just a little, the irritation of soone who just wants to close a case and go to sleep.
Billy entered in his uniform, which he had been wearing for five days.
-Detective Sorset, I'm Detective Mills, - Billy comnted, going up the stairs quickly, ready and combing.
-I arrived 20 minutes ago, and they sent here. Right to the scene, - Billy/David Mills comnted, facing an impressed Sorset, who just looks at him with a pause.
-Co with , - Sorset/Morgan comnted.
The shot changes; both are leaving the cri scene, but the caras are set up, they just have to fill them in.
-Listen, Mills, what if we find a bar and sit down to talk, - Sorset/Morgan Freeman responded, imrsed in his role, not flashy in gestures, but giving off a deep vibe of being the detective, no other, tired.
-I'd like to go to the office if you don't mind. I haven't had ti for the transition, - Billy/Mills comnted, just as defined as a loudmouth; the fact that he interrupted Freeman's line only added to Billy's awkwardness, and Freeman didn't react.
-I wanted to ask you sothing when we talked on the phone. -
-Yes? -
-Why here? -
-I don't understand, - Billy said almost arrogantly; the image of a young Mills is clearer in his mind every day he performs more scenes and gets more involved in the role.
-All that effort to get transferred here is beyond , - Sorset comnted.
-I have the sa reasons you resigned. -
-Listen, you had to fight to get transferred here. I haven't seen anyone here asking to be transferred. -
-It's not important. Listen, it would be good if we got to know each other a little. Today, you give the orders, lieutenant, - David Mills comnted.
-I want you to listen, understood? - He calms Mills' mule-like eagerness, but he presses on.
-Today, I'm not here to stand guard in a café. I've been working in homicides for 5 years. -
-Not today, not here. In the next 5 days, you'll do a favor by rembering this. I want you to observe, I want you to listen, I want you to play a role. You need to know, - Sorset interrupted.
-Cut, - David Fincher said powerfully.
A great scene, all the shots were perfect. We can continue with a few more shots, but I think it's better to head to the police station, - looking at the clock. - We have ti; the next shots will be in the studio! - David Fincher comnted with a sharp voice.
Billy passed by sighing for the end of the shot, there were many, and he was greeted by a closer Gwyneth, who smiled at him.
-Great job, Carson, - a guy from the studio comnted, patting Billy's shoulder forcefully.
-It was wonderful how you perford; in such a short ti, you caught the rhythm. Morgan is an actor with an impeccable career, he's among the best stage actors, and it's said that his last movie was great. By the way, what should I call you, Darwin or Carson? Haha, it's funny that you have an alias; lately, you've been making waves in the dia, - Gwyneth said, jokingly.
-Darwin, I adopted it for two reasons: taxes, I don't want to mix my salaries into one account, and secondly, to prevent those who read my na from making judgnts. Darwin avoids or confuses; not many know it's my alias. And they don't care much. You, you can call 'my lord', - said Billy, poking the girl's nose, surprising the blonde, who rarely hears jokes from Billy.
-Oh, be careful, there are caras everywhere. Tomorrow, I have a scene with you; I hope you'll allow to breathe. Julie ntioned that you're very intense with your shots, - Gwyneth comnted.
-You must strive; those awards won't co by themselves, - said Billy, following the blonde to a small truck that would take them to the police station a few streets from here. If they were shooting outdoors, it's said that if no more than three people are projecting, there can be a recording in any public space. Well, David Fincher takes advantage of that clause to make quick shots with almost unpredictable skill.

-Miss Rachel, this is Shoji Ota, the shareholder of Olm Inc., who will carry out the incorporation process, for now, he has the domain celebrated by the entrepreneurs over the animation rights, - comnted Iwu Tomashi, acting as a translator between both parties.
Rachel bowed and perford all the formalities offered. They shook hands, gently squeezing.
-Can you tell him that my boss, the owner, and director of Lux Animation, has ordered nurous agendas for the company? - said, Rachel.
The rules in the company are clear, both Gaimax and Olm Inc. brought flagship projects. On one hand, Gaimax will focus on the Evangelion project, fully, and later on Cowboy Bebop, while Olm Inc. will take care of the Fate series, Pokémon, Berserk, and Detective Conan "tentei Conan," which still doesn't have its na translated.
-Excuse , Miss Rachel! - said Iwu perplexed.
-I want to send him the orders from my boss, they're not intrusive, they're the future of the company, - comnted Rachel.
-Don't worry, Miss Rachel, I'll tell Mr. Shoji everything you tell , - said Iwu.
-Very well, the first thing is a thank you for working with Lux Animation. We are a company that wants to bring the world of animation to broader projects and enrich the world of cartoons, -Rachel replied.
Iwu translated.
-He thanks you for the welco, he says he also extends his invitations to fulfill your dreams, - comnted Iwu.
-I will give him this folder containing Billy's plans for the next three years already translated. Likewise, the guiding principles highlighted in the header are as described; we want a series that endures over ti. Quality is our general rule, from the script, drawing, direction, and everything that composes it. Billy Carson sent scripts for the Pokémon series, along with a small manga and storyboard of the characters, - Rachel comnted...
Again Iwu translated, this ti Mr. Shoji's eyes widened, series with very high budgets, permission to hire talented animators, hire musical artists for Japanese and Arican songs, money to purchase film rights, fixed salaries, 35% higher than the Japanese rule, although still lower than in the United States, and the possibility of projects chosen by all mbers of the company, as long as they et the quality and visions of the company.
-Arica just throws money! - thought Shoji Ota.
