the scene does not consist of linear perspective but rather is constructed of foreground

framing, middle ground actions and backgrounds that are out of focus to

give added depth. This shot shows that atmospheric perspective can consist simply

of a view of cattle in the MGD plane along with the cowboys who drive them to

market. The shot is beautifully framed in the FGD with the trees. The arrow indicates

the line of action. When you place a shot in any fi lm, there has to be a unity of

space, a unity of composition and a pre-viz placement of people and objects.

Figure 5-19 In this scene from

Vertigo, the sketch illustrates extreme high angle

one-point perspective.
