Shrink-ray?
. From what we know, a bird's eye view or even a worm's eye view could change someone's height drastically and give off a wonderful mood for a tense scene or a comedy sketch but, their are other ways of giving that character some extra bulk in height.
By changing the height of a character or even an object, it doesn't just change the scene but it changes the very tone of it as well, making the audience focus of other things in the scene or makes them think of a type of emotion because of it. It's more then just a size change.
Using wide angle lenses help give off a depth of making the subject in the foreground look larger than the subject or things in the background. Also, by just making props smaller also give off a sense of height.
Example being Citizen Kane and the change of the ceiling height to give more menacing emotions towards characters.
An obvious route for this effect is green screen effects, making the subject smaller or larger in a room or even sitting in a chair.
Even so, just a change of staging could make everything better.
or Large-ray??
. From what we know, there are many ways of changing the size or a person or object, some better than others and some easier than others. Even to just the change of an angle could do this. I personally find it rather interesting how this is done, example being how Jedediah and Octavius from Night at the Museum were sized down to create the illusion of size difference. It thought it super well done!
I'd love to practice with this in the future in some films/work.
