Stranger Things Textual Analysis Clip One: The director makes us follow the kids to see how close they are and what they would do for each other, this leads on to when one of them goes missing and they all get together and look for him. Camera : In this clip there are many different camera movements used for example a Steadicam is used the shows the kids sitting around the table but also to show their surroundings and to set the scene, from the use of the Steadicam it gives it a smooth shot of the room to show that they are down stairs in the basement with low lighting and board game in the middle, this creates a scary setting especially with the game they are playing, due to the close ups of the kids we can see how they take this game very seriously like its more than a game, we find out that Mike has been planning this game for over 2 weeks and they have been playing for over 10 hours. Point of views is also used to show what each of them see’s, this is also a good shot
