The opening scene of Resident Evil uses camera effects and sounds to build tension and mystery. A slow panning shot shows only a woman's high heels in detail to create suspense about her identity. Non-diegetic music and color cues like her red shoes symbolizing blood also build an eerie atmosphere. Effective editing between shots of the woman at different angles increases curiosity about her character. Slow motion distorts reality and prolongs the suspense as the audience anticipates what might happen. When she attacks the man, the action speeds up to represent the situation spiraling out of control. Overall, the director uses various techniques to manipulate the audience's expectations throughout the opening scene.
Presentation scream
The document analyzes and summarizes key shots from the opening sequence of the film Scream. The first shot establishes the setting and suggests the film will involve a phone call. The second shot introduces the main character, a young attractive female, fitting thriller conventions. The third shot shows an empty garden with a moving swing, indicating someone is watching the house. Overall the shots set up psychological thriller elements, establish the vulnerable female protagonist, and start building tension through phone calls and the threat of an unknown stalker watching the house.
Target audience evaluation
The document describes the mise en scene of a short film depicting two girls walking to a party. One girl wears a black top with see-through lining, suggesting she wants attention, while the other wears a bold leopard print crop jumper. Various shots are discussed to set the scene and build intrigue, including a long shot of the girls walking down a path in daylight with a day-to-night effect, and a side shot of them laughing and listening to music. Titles with an ominous soundtrack are added to create suspense. A pan reveals one girl being distracted by a clown as they walk away from each other. An over-the-shoulder shot shows a girl staring at the clown, questioning
Story board+meaning
The document outlines a film director's plan to shoot a comedy/horror film about a boy who is abducted by aliens. It describes various shot types that will be used to align the audience with the boy's perspective, build suspense, scare viewers, and create a comedic atmosphere. Key shots include a close-up of an alien approaching the boy's bed, shots showing the boy's reaction to being abducted, and a reveal that the boy's mother is an alien in a comedic twist. The director aims to keep the audience engaged with the narrative through shots that progress the story and end on a dramatic final twist.

Hyperlinks
The document describes various production elements used in a film to convey meaning and create tension, including:
1) Talcum powder was used on a child actor to portray death as ghosts are in thrillers. Makeup was also used to match thriller conventions.
2) Various props like an apron and paint supplies were used to establish a mother character as an artist.
3) Camera angles like close-ups of a child's eyes build connection with the audience to increase tension.
4) Shots and music create an unsettled mood and foreshadow potential loss between a mother and child despite an initially portrayed strong bond.
Hyperlinks
The document describes various scenes and shots used in a thriller film. It discusses how different camera angles, lighting, costumes, and sounds are used to create tension, unease, and foreshadow danger or conflict. Specific techniques include high angle shots to make the viewer feel inferior, close-ups of a child's eyes to build empathy, and non-diegetic music to set mood. Scenes show a mother and child, two women in a city, and a protagonist receiving a mysterious letter. Details are provided to subtly imply threats and an impending disruption through visual cues and juxtapositions.
Still Image Analysis
This document analyzes still images from the trailer for The Silence of the Lambs through the use of framing, lighting, composition, costumes, and props. It examines how each visual element is used to build mystery, fear, and signify that the main character is a dangerous person who needs to be contained. The analysis shows how the trailer uses common thriller and horror film techniques like low key lighting, close ups, and implied violence to unsettle the audience and imply danger without explicitly showing anything graphic.
Representation of characters (1)
The document analyzes the representation of characters in three horror film trailers through their use of sound, editing, camerawork, and mise-en-scene. Male characters are generally portrayed as dominant through dialogue, protective gestures, and shot compositions that make them appear bigger or in control. Female characters are often represented as vulnerable through close-ups of their scared expressions and positioning that reveals their bodies for the "male gaze." Dark lighting and fast editing aim to depict all characters as vulnerable to the impending horror. Common stereotypes are employed, such as the "blonde bimbo" character sexualized for her appearance.
Short film analysis revealution
1) The short film uses techniques like slowed pacing, dark lighting, and non-diegetic music to establish a scary atmosphere and show a young girl who seems isolated and vulnerable.
2) It depicts the girl's relationship with her abusive boyfriend through a montage with differing moods set by lighting and editing.
3) After nearly committing suicide, the girl gets help from friends through hashtags on social media, reflecting the film's goal of helping those in difficult relationships. The film ends on a hopeful note by bringing people together against relationship violence.
The women in black analysis
The opening sequence of The Women in Black contains elements of a typical horror film but presents them in a gloomy and creative way. It shows three girls having a tea party with dolls in an attic-like setting. Their play becomes increasingly disturbing as they lose emotion and control of their actions, walking ominously toward an open window. The sequence builds tension by suggesting the girls are being possessed before they jump from the window to their deaths, witnessed by a figure dressed in black. This mysterious opener leaves the audience wanting to learn more about the character in black and the events that transpired.

Digipak creation process
The document describes the process used to create a digipak for a music video. Pictures from the different locations featured in the music video were blended together to create the front and back covers. The interior panels followed the narrative of the music video, each featuring a different location through blended photos. Lyrics from the song were added to some panels to provide continuity and give the digipak a cohesive theme that mirrors the music video. The same blending and editing process using various apps was used for each part of the digipak creation.
What is a digipak
Digipaks consist of a paperboard book-style CD packaging with a front and back cover displaying album information. An interior page provides additional song and artist details. Digipaks allow for more photography and design than jewel cases but are more likely to rip or fall apart over time. They can be made from recycled materials, making them more environmentally friendly. Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream" album effectively used bright colors and close-up photography in its digipak to represent the theme and artist's personality.
Evaluation 5
The filmmakers created Twitter and Instagram accounts for their production company to promote their thriller film and any future films. They posted behind-the-scenes content like character costumes and filming preparations to engage audiences and help them connect with the film. They also designed two movie posters - a teaser poster to draw in audiences and pique their interest in learning more, and a final poster featuring reviews to further promote the thriller on social media and in public spaces like shops and bus stops.
Audience Profile
Lucy Johnson is a 26-year-old dental nurse from Tunbridge Wells, Kent. She enjoys spending time with her friends, family, 2-year-old daughter, and fiancé. Lucy's favorite movie genre is romantic comedies and her favorite films are PS I Love You and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. She likes listening to new chart music as well as bands from the 90s and early 2000s like Oasis and Boyz II Men.
Title Sequence Techniques
A title sequence introduces a film's title and cast and helps set the mood. There are four main types: discrete sequences that stand alone to immerse viewers; stylized sequences that use editing and effects; credits over a blank screen with fitting music; and narrative openings that show characters as credits appear. The document discusses these types and concludes that credits over a blank screen would be most effective for the film discussed, due to limited editing skills.
Title Font and Ideas
The document discusses font and title sequence ideas for an upcoming thriller film. It considers two font options: "Cenobite", which references religious monasticism and has slight links to the film's themes of black magic. It also discusses "Dead Bitch", which uses strong terms to set the dark tone through references to death and an obsessive woman. In the end, the group decides to use "Dead Bitch" as the main font, but will use both fonts in the opening with quick transitions between black and white backgrounds to build suspense and unease.
BBFC
Between the group, they decided to rate their thriller film either a 12 or a 15 with the BBFC ratings. They felt a 12 may be too much for those under 12 years old, but a 15 rating could reduce their target audience. After researching the BBFC guidelines on themes, language, nudity and sexuality, they concluded a 15 rating was most suitable since their film involved suicide which is treated differently between the ratings, and there is more leniency for language and nudity at a 15. While some of their target market would be excluded, maintaining the integrity of their film's themes was important.
Beautiful creatures analysis
The opening scene uses a wide shot to show a mysterious figure standing under a tree during a thunderstorm, establishing an ominous tone. A mid-shot then reveals the figure is a girl dressed entirely in black with her face hidden, conveying she is unknown and potentially dangerous. The boy narrating is then shown walking towards the distant girl in another wide shot. Intercut are close-ups of the girl and boy's lips, with a fast-paced soundtrack, implying events are unfolding quickly. The montage flashes back to the boy approaching the girl, ending with a mid-shot of his confused expression unable to identify her.

Beautiful creatures analysis
- 2. The opening scene uses a wide angle shot to show a figure of a person standing onto of a hill underneath a tree. This shot is very dark as you are unable to see the any detail of the person or the tree. Everything in the shot has a shadow look to it. The sound used within this shot it the roar of thunder giving off the impression that the figure of a person is either in danger or dangerous.
- 3. Another shot is then taken of a mid-shot of the figure, however in this shot we are able to identify that the figure is a girl. She is dressed in all black with her long dark hair brushed across her face so the audience are only able to see very small pieces of her face. This tells the audience that the girl is unknown and a mystery. This can connote that the girl could be dangerous or cause some kind of disaster.
- 4. After that shot the boy who is doing a voice over walks towards the figure in the distance using a wide angle shot. After this shot several other shots are used however they are used within a montage. These shots are of a girl dressed in old clothing fashioned clothing which is made of an expensive material with her hair tied back nicely this stereotypically shows her of a higher class. There are close up shots of their lips showing the relationship between the two characters. Over the top of this there is a soundtrack which is of a very quick tempo this implies that everything is happening so fast to make sense of it.
- 6. Throughout the montage it continuously flashes back to the boy walking towards the girl in the distance which is also shown with a wide angle shot. the scene then ends with a mid-shot of the boy showing his confusion towards the girl as he is unable to tell who she is.
