Pan












My interpretation of the pan technique is when a subject usually a person or a car is followed by a camera along the horizontal axis, i.e left to right.

I believe this was used in this scene to emphasise this characters dominance and the power behind his words, almost in a military styled fashion as the camera follows him pacing along the room. This results in the audience focusing on him and his words, combined with his dominating presence and stern expression we get the feeling that he has a more powerful position than the other characters and there is more persuasion and power behind his words whether good or bad.
