Silence of the lambs - Charley

Opening sequence:
Camera Work:
-medium shot which tracks the girl from behind with a low angle, maybe to give the impression she is being followed.
-Extreme long shots to establish settings (woods)
-I noticed that there were many medium shots but not alot of close ups.

Edting:
-straight forwards cute.
- objects were used to to do a 'wipe' (natural wipe) such as the trees and a wall.









Mes En Scene:
- the girl is in a wood jogging, this is a common used setting for a thriler.
-As the viewer you dont know why she is there or who she is, until a man calls her and a a close up of his hat is shown saying 'FBI' this gives us a clue she may be at work.
- When she goes to the buidling it shows alot of people work in this setting , (different deparments).

Sound:
-The music is soft whilst she is jogging, this represents peace as alot of people would accoiate jogging with peace.
-When the man tells her to go see her boss the music gets deeper and louder which suggests something may happen.
-Alot of foley effects are used when shes in the woods, for example when she is running, the sound of her feet are exagerated to create effect.
