Genre that is established – Horror
How the genre is established.
Non diegetic music, old fashioned music
Old sepia pictures fading in and out of each other
Camera cuts in and out of blood dripping
Surgical equipment dripping with blood
Faces and body’s laying on surgery beds
White flashed to create the effect of pictures being taken
Blood begins to gush out all over the floor
Non diegetic music fades into horror music, tone changes and becomes very eerie and tense over the sequence of the opening scene
Photos of people besides dead people
Dead people are all dressed in old fashioned clothes
Dead people photographed in coffins
Threw the course of the opening scene you get a feel that the events that happen in the film will be something to do with a past event, possibly the house has been cursed by the older generation of owners. you see lots of pictures of people together in the pictures but with a first glance you think the two people in the photograph are alive but once the camera cuts between the pictures and the very graphical horror scenes of blood and knives creating incisions into body you then get a different feel for he pictures and begin to notice that only one person in the pictures are alive. The Non diegetic music starts off as very old fashioned music which is very calm but as the opening scene reaches the end the music keep the same tune but changes its tone and pitch to very eerie music. The shot types that are used are very simple as it uses lots of close ups and pans so the pictures will enlarge on the screen and ten will fade to another and then will cut to a close up of blood dripping.
