Thriller Research- Sin City (2005) [James]


 
There are MS and LS that show most of the setting and character, this is strange because most thrillers use CU's to hide things from people
- there are O.T.S shots of the male character to create suspense about his emotions.

- The lighting is quite important and is low key, this is because they need to hide there identity from the viewer.
- The editing for this is the most important, they have taken the colour from the scene, although they have left in some colour, red dress, lipstick this creates a image of the woman which is a juxtaposition of her being in low key lighting.

-there are long takes with a slow pace, creates atmosphere and suspense betweenthe characters and the audience.

-The sound is diegetic speaking, this creates suspense because the sound of there voices have been amplified.
There is a voice over from the beginning, this voice over creates an ellipsis because he is thinking about the past.

  1. I see that you've done all yours James. Well done on this. Can you make sure though that you are really discussing the whole of the opening (ie around 2 mins at least of connected shots). There's a sense here that you are analysing separate shots. It's also a bit short.
