Inspirational Clip Main Task

This clip is a very good example of an openong of a horror film



The main inspiration of this clip is the low key lighting which we want to have in our opening titles. It gives a gloomy effect that we want. Also, the way the titles appear on the black half of the screen while the action occurs on the left.
The iconography can be interpritated in several ways, for example the opening hand actions indicates begging and pleading, then it moves to praying. This shows how somthing more dominate is controlling her emotions.

The bird song which is played, contrasts with the imaged portrayed on the screen. The song is very light and softhearted, and the image is very harsh and disturbed. This makes it a quite confusing image for the audience watching which could convey the woman's mixed emotions coming from the expression from her hands.

Note: We are only examining the title sequence of this film.
