a great warrior such as Ulysses?

Which technique would a cinematographer most likely use to let the viewer
Alina [70]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

By zooming in on the actor's facial expression, the cinematographer is placing emphasis on the actor's emotions. By doing so, the audience will instinctively know that the character is experiencing strong emotions (mostly due to the emphasis on the characters expression, as the character will most likely be showing visual signs of experiencing a strong emotion, using facial expressions and body language [also look into micro expressions])
