My favourite film

Saw

Synopsis of the film
This film is about a serial killer who sets up challenges that he wants his victims to complete . If they fail to complete the challenge then they lose there life. The challenges are games that force the victims to inflict mass pain to themselves so that they are free from the trap.
Genre of the film
This film is a horror film and there is lots of blood and gore involved to show this.
Sound
In the introduction the room is pitch black and all you can hear is people screaming at each other. when the lights turn on the sound of sparks can be heard in the background. No other sound effects or music is used in the opening scene.
Lighting
The lights are turned off at the start of the film but after some speech they are turned on suddenly and we are shown clips of the lights flickering on and off before they stay on. The room is fully lit up and the light Is coming from the roof and shining on the side of the mans face as he closes his eyes to avoid the blast of light.
Camera shots
The camera is very shaky as the man is shown trying to escape from the chains. then the camera is blurred as the lights come on and the man is blinded by the brightness.
Titles
The title of the film emerges in the dark and is written in bright colors so that your full attention is drawn to it. Then the title fades away in a misty effect. This then leaves the plain black screen used to start the opening of the film.
