Task 5

Textually analyse the trailer for cinematography:
What shot types and angles have they used? How do these create meaning for the audience? 


Over the shoulder
An over the shoulder shot has been used to show the audience that there is some level of a relationship between the two characters, and I denote this at multiple times in the trailer e.g 0.9-0.11 0.16-0.17. This connotes that both character have some level of a relationship, and this is shared with the audience so that we're capable of understanding what type of that these characters share. Furthermore it moves on the story that the trailer is trying to show us. 


High angle
A high angle has been used to create suspense for the audience, and  allow them to ponder this characters purpose within the trailer. During the trailer I denoted that at 1.12, the antagonist is standing over the protagonist. This connotes that this women is much more powerful, and in command, which once again allows the audience to wonder as to what her purpose is in the film, and also cause tension and suspense because you wonder what's going on. 


Close Up
A close up is used so the audience is capable of seeing and feeling the characters emotions, and I denote this from 1.41-1.43, when you get a close up of the old woman's face as well the reaction of the girls face. The close up of the old woman's face connotes fear, and horror towards the audience because it a sudden shock, meaning that once again the audience are feeling the face pace of the trailer. The close up of the girls face is a response too the woman's and is also a surprise to the audience, and creates the same type of effect.
