Horror Conventions and Traits


SAW VII (7) the Final Chapter Textual Analysis
The cinematography is started instantly by close up camera shots of all three humans’ characters and the doll. This shot has instantly been used to show the audience the extreme fear that the characters have on their face and the pure horror the doll possesses. This creates big amount of tension and uncertainly as the characters fear the worst. Next there is an extreme close up shot of the saw which emphasis's that something is going to happen which in turn creates dramatic effect. It also links to the title of the film which shows what it is about. Lastly there are several low angle shots on the female character which gives the audience a sense of confusion and lack of power which the character possesses.


The whole opening scene is in the open with high key lighting. This is used as there is a big audience experiencing what’s going and they get a clear image of what’s going on. As a result it creates a dramatic effect where the people watching are mortified as they are experiencing this nightmare with the characters inside the glass dome. Also the use of high key lighting manipulates the situation which they are in because they are actually in a deep, dark place.

Slaughter House Productions; Preliminary Task

Prem Task

Our group mind mapped potential places where we could shoot our task, which would enable us to get all the key shots we needed to include. We kept our script really simple and short we could mean that we could focus on the key shots we wanted to include. To get a better understanding of shots that we wanted to use we watched clips from youtube clips and television programmes. From these clips it gave us a clear idea of how we wanted to film our film.
