Get Out: opening scene analysis



This scene is set at night time, therefore mainly low level lighting is used and a lot of darkness in order to make the genre clear towards the audience. For the majority of the scene only ambient sound and the character's dialogue can be heard acting as a form of silence, which can come across as rather unsettling for the audience. As the car pulls up aside by the man, you can hear the happy diegetic music it's playing also known as contrapuntal sound perhaps to confuse the audience. As the scene goes on, and the man is trying to work his way away from the car, the same diegetic music played from the car becomes non-digetic and gets a lot louder acting like a sound bridge to perhaps overwhelm and disorientate the audience. An appearance of the production company is then shown to again confirm the genre of the film. The scene finishes off with some uncomfortable non-doegetic music leaving the audience in both fright and suspense.
