Short Film Research

The reason why i have posted this film on the blog is because the opening scene links into the original idea that our group came up with. The selection of shots are very well organised to apply the sense of horror to the viewer, this is what we are trying to aim for in our short film. I think that the framing of the shot is key because the women is in the centre of the screen which means that she is main focus of the film, this also creates the effect that the viewer can see the surrounds equally and it can make them stand out more. The establishing shot of the empty woods with the crow sounding in the background makes it clear the film has a horror element. The shot where the camera moves out from behind the tree gives the impression that the character is being followed by someone or something, also the shot where the character turns around also gives the impression that they are being followed.
