House Raid scenes

 House raid scenes are very cool and are commonly used in action movies. My group and I want to do a house raid film opening scene. These scenes are really popular and they usually involve the military, special forces, or police. These scenes show a team entering a building to eliminate a target or an enemy. These scenes are popular because they show characters in small and tight places where there is a lot of danger and it can come from anywhere. This shows the characters as anxious and alert and it makes the audience also feel like that. There a lot of close up shots used, low lighting or sometimes night vision and they used handheld cameras to make it look realistic.

A movie that did this house raid scene really good was the movie Zero Dark Thirty. This scene shows how the U.S. special forces infiltrated Osama Bin Ladens home. The scene focuses on making it realistic, tension and small details instead of making it dramatic. The sound makes it seem more realistic with the sounds of the boots, guns, breathing and also them whispering into the radio. The scene is shot in darkness and some clips in night vision as well. They start the scene off slow to build tension and then it starts to get faster but not like chaos. This is how they keep it realistic and less dramatic.
