Two FBI agents who are in desperate need of saving their reputation secretly take a case that isn't suppose to be theirs. The case regarding Tiffany and Brittany Wilson, two white rich spoiled girls who are in great danger and don't even know it. Instead of letting their partners watch the girls carefully like their were assigned to do they decide to pose as the girls so that if they are kidnapped it will be them instead of the actual girls. These two FBI agents go on a series of funny events attempting to find the kidnappers and reclaim themselves as actual FBI agents who can do more than just mess up cases. (White Chicks)
Mobile framing is the used for the ability to shoot a frame while the camera is moving. Mobile framing also has alot of different styles in which the camera can be moved. The style of mobile framing using the tilt camera movement was done in the dressing room scene in this movie. As Lisa begins putting on her clothes Kevin (Shawn Wayans) posed as Tiffany Wilson is looking at her which is shown through the tilt camera movement.Although Lisa thinks she looks horrible Kevin think she looks great. As the movement of the camera goes with as she pulls her skirt up serves as a great example of tilt camera movement.
An example of a long take would be when the girls began to battle each other at dancing. This take goes on for about three minutes to emulate how important this is to the girls. Marcus and Kevin's (posing as Brittany and Tiffany) friends began dancing against their rivals but eventually lose the dance battle. Seconds later Marcus and Kevin (posed as Brittany and Tiffany) began to dance winning the dance battle and making the girls feel more confident about themselves because someone from their circle beat their rivals at dancing in front of a lot of people. The movement of the girls dancing serves as shots that make up for a long take.
Off screen and onscreen Space is portrayed in this scene because even though a thief have stolen Kevin's (posing as Tiffany) purse he chases after him because his gun and badge is in the purse. When chasing after him the camera shows how the girls jump in the car to follow Kevin. Even though while this is going on Kevin isn't in the screen the audience can put together that Kevin is still chasing after the thief. The camera illustrates proof that the chase scene serves as an awareness to how much space is between the cops in the car, the girls in the car and Kevin and the thief.
