Shoot out scene inspiration.

I'd like the start to my action scene at the beginning of the film to look a lot like this. Just the first minute.

I like the way the black bars control the viewers eyes while adding movement to a still shot. I think it would make a interesting set-up as my main character and the drug dealers size each other up before the shoot out happens.
I feel like doing these kind of effects could add a lot to film without taking up a huge amount of time to do.
I would shoot both characters in the scene separately but with close ups of their face, hands, and feet. I would then edit the close ups as moving segments of the to create tension. Both eye close ups would be moving two each other as segments of their hands, feet, would slip in and out of the frame ether from outside the frame or masked off and emerged from blackness on screen.
