The opening scene of the video started off in the woods, with a dull atmosphere which gives the audience a tense feeling. The shot was a median shot with a high angle and slowly went down the tree. The fog made the images look cold and misty- which indicates to the viewers something is going to happen.
In this shot the title of the movie came up on top of the video and followed with credits that appear on the video in the centre of the shot. The colour and font of the title could give the audience a clue to what type of genre the movie is ; as the titles appear on the screen the camera begins to go downwards from the high angle and showing the character holding on to the rope and pulling herself up. This straight away makes the audience think something is happening.
When the character starts running, the audience may think that she’s running away from something which again builds up the tension to the atmosphere. There is calm music theme playing in the background, and as the character gets closer we hear her breathing heavily and she looks very scared. The close up shot of the female character where she looks around, and seems like she is running away from something. The quick changes of the camera shots make the audience tensed up due to the range of close up shots;
The camera angles switches quickly from a close up medium shot of her running on the side and then changes to the front and she is running towards the camera. The close up of her legs indicate she is still running and that she is still in the woods. When the women speeds up and begins to jog as she is jogging the camera is speedily tracking her from a side a close up medium shot as she is running towards the camera.
As she carries on running, she ends up running into the fog. The camera is just focused on her, so we can see her face clearly. In this camera shot it is close up shot of her face, which shows the audience her reactions. In this scene it makes the audience become more tensed as we are looking out for something as she is running away. The tracking camera of the women running is fast, which indicates that the character is feared of something.
As she is running we hear a male’s voice and then he gets into the scene. This is known as the a Non-diegetic sound as it is represented as coming from the a source outside story space. As she carries on running after seeing the male character, she runs towards a big building- this is a long shot, as the audience can see an overall picture and get an idea of what is happening in the scene.
As the camera moves, the location changes now the audience can see the buildings. As she enters the building the theme music fades away. Now we can hear what we can see which is a diegetic sound. As she gets out the lift the camera moves towards a board saying “behavioural science department, this tells the viewers that she is some kind of scientist.
Overall the editing of the opening scene of the first six minutes of the video is a mixture of different edits. For example the first couple of minutes was full of quick and close up shots and tracking shot of the women running the woods. As she meets the male character the camera shots becomes slower than it was at the beginning. The sound used throughout the video was very smarty done as diegetic and non diegetic sound is used. For example diegetic sounds includes the natural sounds of the woods, the birds, and non diegetic sound included the man out of the scene talking.
