We recently watched a documentary on fear and how it is creates fear to the audience and techniques and types of shots they use. We decided to watch the documentary because we could get techniques and ideas on how to create fear in our opening sequence. In these shots you can see a young girl hiding under the blanket/duvet after hearing loud and potentially threatening noises. In the screenshot on the right you can see she are tickling themselves on the knee this shows she is trying to distract herself from reality. The low key dark lighting creates a sense of fear as this normally connotes danger. The close up of her face on the left makes the audience focus on her facial expressions and how she is really feeling in this moment this really helps the audience connect with her and feel what she is feeling. In these shots you can see a man laying down on his back on a bed he seems to be frozen in fear and looking up in shock. In the shot on the right his hands are placed in a vulnerable position and his facial expressions suggest that he is screaming at something. The dark lighting around the bed makes us focus on him and feel what he is feeling. As you can see his shirt has been ripped open between the shots this suggests that he could be being attacked by something that the camera frame does not shows us which, creates and builds up on suspense.
