cover lesson- opening sequence analysis

P1-01 Dead Runner

Dead runner was a good opening sequence, it used a wide variety of camera angles and camera movements. One of the most memorable shots within the opening is the close up of his eyes, Eyes are a common feature often associated within thrillers. The music is really effective as it builds tension and makes the clip feel very real life. Another effect feature is the repetition of the rope of the floor, this comes across as very mysterious.

p1-02 Daiquiri

Daiquiri used the use of various camera editing techniques to make it dramatic, the use of faded colour on the girl in the forest scene this lets the audience know that the girl in the shot is confused to where she is and how she is feeling. Close up shots of the female's shoes are used, this adds to the distortion. The use of a cliff hanger at the end of the scene is a common feature of thrillers.
