Rough Cut Analysis Of Sound

Sound- not much sound is used within the opening sequence, lots of non diegetic sound is used, like mood music which is eerie and adds to the sense of the unknown adding to the atmosphere. When diegetic sound is used it is used well but there’s not much but again this adds to the feeling of the unknown as we only see the girl she doesn’t make any sounds of fear only facial expressions to show emotion. The playing of the radio when it goes back to the woman in the house works well as its shows her normal home life.

Rough Cut camerawork analysis

Camerawork- camerawork is done effectively but I do think a tripod should have been used more as some clips are rather shaky but this also does add to the realism of the scene. Close ups have been used effectively to show the actresses fear and emotion. The way panning shots are used allows us to see the location and the environment the girl in is. The camera techniques which are used from cutting to the girl being held as a hostage to her in her own home shows us a sense of reality and the normal life she leads. The zoom in on the diary and focussing on Monday where there’s a big cross emphasises that something bad may be happening on this day and it’s very effective.
I think the camera work has been done well and uses different techniques effectively.
