Location/Setting Analysis

The Meg: Opening Scene 



- The sinister non-diegetic sound implies to the audience that the setting of this scene is perhaps unsafe.
- The use of several close ups and tight framing might suggest a sense of being trapped or isolated.
- We can see through the use of mis-en-scene (red danger lights, non-diegetic sound effects, character yelling for help etc) that the location is dangerous.

The Shining: Opening Scene 



The unsettling non-diegetic music implies to the audience the genre of the film.
- The location of the narrative is introduced through the use of establishing shots and loose framing to signify a deserted area. 
- The location of the narrative is up in the mountains, perhaps suggesting that something bad will happen later on due to the restricted amount of help the character's will have access to (e.g. no phone signal).

We have used After Effects to create the titles that will appear on our opening sequence. These titles include: the name of the director, the names of the main actors, the names of the producers and the title of the film. We will add these titles once we have organised the editing of the footage.
