Tracking shot

During this scene we see a tracking shot of the character Jack from The Shining entering the ballroom of the hotel which is meant to empty. By using a tracking shot the audience feels as if we are taking in the surroundings the same time as the character is. Although there is a lot of things going on in the scene Jack is constantly the centre of attention as he keeps near the centre of the shot and the fact he stands out from everyone else due to his clothing, giving an eerie feel to the ballroom.
