Cinematography

All the shots we used were for a reason.
We show the logo with music playing in the background to set the scene, it then show who has directed and produced the movie, then our promotion poster.

The film starts with a shot of the house, its dark and mysterious. It then goes into a shot in the house with the two girls which is a visual bridge. This made you feel like someone was watching them from outside.
From the beginning of the clip we were trying to show the vulnerability or characters by using a high angle. Also watching a scary movie was setting the theme and is a signifier.
Then when the mother comes into the room she has a knife with her which is another signifier.
The two girls, one who is dressed in fun flirty clothes and the other in conservative clothes runs outside its shot at a dutch angle to show her vulnerability and how something bad is about the happen.
The picture and title in red and sharp sheriff signifies blood so the audience are getting a hint of the genre already.
We then chose to do a shot of the house to set the scene and show the time. It was also an inter textual link to Halloween. It then zooms in as if someone is trying to look for the people inside the house.
You then get a two shot of the girls watching a scary movie which also helps set the genre. This has an inter textual link to scream because she also says shes going to watch a scary movie.
You then get a shot of the reaction of the two girls you also get to see the mum in this shot entering the scene.
After that you get an over shoulder the shot from the mothers point of view, the knife is also in this shot to signify death.
Then shot from where to television is so you can see everyone in the room.
We then use the 180 degree rule this is show the conversation between the mum and friend of the daughters.
A Point of view shot from the mum is used to show when girl leaves house, match on action is taken place here.
We then use a long shot, to show the girl walking into the dark rural area. Slow motion effect is used at this point.
A point of view from the killers view is then used as if he was watching the girl, the point of view shot is used again to show the killer following the girl we see the hand at this point which gives narrative enigma
A mid shot of the girl is then used to show her reaction. another mid shot is then used to show the girl waking up from her nightmares this showed how scared she was It then goes to a black where a heartbeat starts to play then the music which we started with plays.

The transitions which we chose to you are very slow and subtle, invisible editing this is because we wanted it to be realistic
