Sixth Sense

 Cinematography

The entire clip uses a a wide range of camera shots. The first shot scene is an extreme close up of the Light bulb turning on, this clip gives builds up tension in a way for the viewer as they won't know what the meaning is of the light bulb turning on. 

From here lot's of medium shots are used of this character. She progresses deeper into the wine cellar, here they use a shot where the camera is positioned behind the wine rack and it follows the character as she picks her bottle of wine. The camera uses a crane whilst she selects her bottle. From here the director uses mid shots to show the characters interactions with this mysterious being.  In the first shot behind the wine rack the camera is in a position as though we are in the eyes of a character that is watching the lady.

Mise-en-scene

The light bulb is  a major prop in the introduction. With it being the first thing focused on and it being one of the longest clips in the introduction scene it shows that the light bulb is a major part of the story line and a major part to this girl's story.
What she is wearing also effects the viewers opinion on her. Her blue dress and high heels shoes show that she is vulnerable and that she wouldn't be able to escape easily.

The basement is also very empty and doesn't look safe and it doesn't look like a safe area for her to be alone in. 

Editing

The editing in this clip is very slow paced this is so the director can build up  tension for the viewer. Whilst the shots are taking place people will be predicting what's going to be happening during the clip. This is also because there is no action going on during the scene so the director has no action to cut to. 

The credits us a fade in and a fade out effect to build suspense between each one and to show the style of the movie, also the font used is a horror, thriller style movie. 

Sounds

The sounds start of with a non-diegetic sound to which is a wind blowing sound, this is done to make the audience feel cold and alone. The score is high pitched and shrill this creates a thriller feeling for the audience

When the credits end and the acting starts the character looks at the wine glasses and taps the bottles, the sound is hyperbolic. From here all the sounds are hyperbolic. This is done to increase tension again for the audience and to make the audience predict that
