Analysis of Saw
SAW has a lot of montage editing to connote to the audience that the
characters are panicking due to what is happening on screen.
The various sound affects used creates suspense and tension for the
audience as it creates narrative enigma’s such as “What is happening
next?”
The different types of mise en scene used creates suspense as they
use things such as knifes, chainsaws and etc. This also creates a
narrative enigma for the viewers such as “What are they going to do
with them?” and “Why are they attacking them with those objects?”
