Your subconscience loves the guest-directors!

Okay I think I can admit that I really loved the directing and angles and such done by Michael in this episode, very good.

I also felt the same way about Tom Welling's directing.

Then it occured to me, perhaps it's our subconscience that just adores something out of the ordinary, rather than the same type of scenes and camera angles we get in every other episode.

Of course there are other factors, such as costume, props and such that are added specially from the director. The angles though! ANGLES!

For example, I noticed that Michael had more direct on face forward shots, of Tom, Kristen, and I think a couple others. I may be wrong but more than usual thier heads are facing off to the side just a bit.

Who thinks my theory applies? When coming to any theatrical piece really.

I think you may be on to something about the ANGLES only based on reading other post.
So if Angle's are Michael's thing then what do think is Tom's?

I think Tom's thing was having the camera on the move more during a scene..I would have to re-watch the episodes to be sure but i'm pretty sure the camera smoothly glided more often around the Characters with Tom Welling directing that gave it a different but good feeling to the scenes.

i see what you mean.. alot of Michael's angels were very straight 90 degree, right angels to the face ..where tom and other directors had the camera constantly moving and circling around the actors
