Rough cut
 analysis
Shot 1
This shot is used to show the setting of the film. It is also used to show why he is out
walking you can tell that he is out walking his dog in the early evening. This shot is
important to show the audience why he is out, why he is alone and what he is reason
is for being out in the early evening.
Shot 2
This shot is used to show how alone/isolated the woods is. In this shot you can clearly
see that he is the only one that is around. The shot has been taken as if there is
someone in the field watching him it is used to make the audience feel on edge
whether someone is watching him or not.
Shot 3
This shot is used too show that there is someone watching him from inside the
forest. It is used to make the audience feel on edge and whether something is
going to happen to the boy.
Shot 4
The close up shot of the shoes is giving the audience an idea that
something could happen with the shoes later on in the film. The shoe
is seen later on in the woods and as you have seen the close up of the
shoe here you know that it is his shoe.
Shot 5
This long range shot maintains the continuity of his walking whilst
showing how isolated the surrounding are. It also makes him appear
vulnerable and innocent.
Shot 6
This shot is showing that he has seen or heard something in the
woods and is curious too see what is in the there it also shows that
he is naïve and hasn’t thought about the dangers and consequences
Shot 7
We have used the trees to show the passing of time. We used
pathetic fallacy to reflect the atmosphere and tension in the
scene. By not showing what is happening in the woods it creates a
mysterious atmosphere.
Shot 8
This shot is showing the dog running out of the woods alone which
implies that his owner has let go of the lead and is in danger.
Shot 9
This is a zoomed shot of the shoe we previously saw in shot 4. It shows
the boy was trying to get away and was obviously in a hurry or
struggle.
