3. Long Shot:
Mirror which you can see the car and a sign saying ‘Lock Out Auto Crime’. Car pulls
into the car park as the security gate is slowly lifting up.
4. Long Shot:
Car drives into the car park and the camera slowly moves down so you see the car
driving down the car park.
5. Low-angled Shot:
Car travels down the car park and begins to break. Break lights come on. Then in
cuts to an images of the car parked up. (this shot is taken from the ground so that
the actor has more power over the audience.
11. Long Shot:
Jessica then tries to open the door but receive a phone call which she then
answers.
12. Shot-reverse-shot:
Jessica answers the phone, shot of Brandon (the ‘killers) head which is taken from
behind his shoulder (so that wee see Jessica’s reaction), quickly turns back the
Jessica (quickly to add to the tension and pace), then a shot of Brandon’s face.
13. The producers and distributors of the film:
This films opens with the details of the production companies. The production
companies are J.S.Films and Sick Mind Production. The clip last 15 seconds with a
small gap in-between (this shows that they are two different production companies. They
are shown on a black screen with blues light shining down from the top-left hand
corners.
14. Film name:
The film name comes up on the screen after the word present. You have a gap
between the both to add suspense and tension (which is what a horror film needs.)
15. Characters name:

‘Killer’. These titles start at 3 minutes and 58 seconds. They finish at 4 minutes and
10 seconds.
16. Location Audio:

at 4 minutes and 14 seconds.

finish at 4 minutes and 18 seconds.
19. Director, Editing and Sound Design:
These include Juan Celis. These titles start at 4 minutes and 24 seconds. They
finish at 4 minutes and30 seconds.
20. All the Titles:
all the titles last a total of 38 seconds. The font used in these
titles sequences is consistent and fits in with the genre as it
looks scary and creepy.
21. The lighting used is to enhance the camera shots, the location
and also ensures that the audience feels the correct
atmosphere for the narrative. To create a horror you need to
use low key lighting which then creates the scary and creepy
feeling.
22. The location which this film is set in is a multi-story car park
which then goes into a block of flats. The location is not a
typical location to film a horror, as many people would think
that a horror film would be filmed in a dark and scary ally. But it
links in with opening sequence camera shots as they are
actually taken from the multi-story car park. I think that the
location doe help se the scene because what happens later on
in the film is unexpected as you wouldn’t think it was going to
happen at the beginning of the film.
23. The costumes that are worn represent a true and authentic
representation of the time period. This film was created in
2007 which means that the costumes which are worn will have
slightly change from what people are now wearing. They also
fit into the genre and its concept. This is done by the ‘killer’
wearing black shoes, black tops, black trousers and a black
balaclava. This is a typical outfit that is commonly used in
horror and action film and drama.
24. Once the audience has seen the first two minutes of this film I
think that they would feel like they would be left on a cliff-
hanger. Also in the first two minutes I think that the scene has
been set very well as you have already seen images of the car
park and the ‘hallway’ which is what they film is called. The
sense of enigma (intrigue – need to watch more) has been
achieved in the first two minutes as you the audience are not
given the full storyline. They have also used the music to
create tension which then also leaves people thinking why is it
called the ‘hallway’, what is going to happen etc.
25. Sounds like: cars driving on a road, dun-dun music
(tension), footsteps, tension building music, rattling of
keys, engine starting, breaking glass, car engines, turning off
an engine, opening of a car door, spooky ghost music, clicking
of the neck, tension building music finishes when she closes
the door of her flat and/or apartment.
All of the above types of sounds have been used separately to
create and link with other things in the film.
26. Car noises:
Cars driving on a road, starting of an engine, a running
engine, turning off of a engine, and the closing of a car door all
represent and link to the car that you see driving in and out og
the car park.
27. Dun-Dun music:
This is included to create tension which then makes the
audience feel suspicious. This also helps to create the enigma
which then will make the audience hopefully want to watch the
rest of the film.
28. Spooky Ghost music:
This is included to create a scary sound which also sound like
people are trying to talk when in fact they cannot.
29. Breathing:
This is included to show that there is actually someone their
who is watching her. This also makes the audience feel like it
is them breathing loud as the could be scared.
30. Phone ringing:
This is included to make the audience think that the person
ringing is a family member but they wouldn’t be expecting it to
be from someone who is going to kill their boyfriend, fiancé or
husband.
31. Chase music:
This is included to make add tension and makes you feel like
she has no time to open the door as he is going to catch her. It
also helps to create pace and tension which has been building
up.
32. Clicking of his neck:
This is included to make show that he is ready for anything but
must importantly ready to catch her and kill her.
33. Jessica’s heavy breathing:
This is included to make show that she is panicking and just
wants to get inside her flat and/or apartment as fast as she
can. Again this increases the pace and tension that has been
building throughout the film.
34. Finishing of the tension building music:
This music finishes when Jessica closes the door to her flat
and/or apartment. This could also say that she has saved and
has not been caught by Brandon the ‘killer’.
35. The points above support the storyline, shots and the lighting
in many different ways. The music helps the storyline because
when Jessica walks into the ‘hallway’ there is more tension
building music than anywhere else in the film. This could mean
a number of different things: this is where the action is going to
happen and/or has happened, or by having more sound the
audience will get confused and are left trying to work out what
is happening. But by the time they do the thing they were
trying to work out has already happened
