The Shining: Bathroom Scene

Camera Angles/ Shots	· Medium long shot: showing their whole body. This is creepy because it seems to me that there is a party in the Hotel. I can tell this because Grady seems to dress in an organised fashion, whereas Jack is dressed ordinary. This leads to tension because this tells us that Jack is imagining and hallucinating. This is terrifying because this shows that Jack is mentally ill which is why he later becomes more aggressive and threatening. · Medium shot: In this shot Grady is cleaning Jacks clothes which shows a sense of mystery · Zoom in: to Grady’s face and then Jacks, showing facial expressions · Close up: to both faces · Tracking shot: Wendy walking back and forth, tension arising again as she seems worried and agitated

The Shining: Here's Johnny Scene

Camera Angles/ Shots	· Zoom in: door and face to show reactions and emotions of both Wendy and Jack, adding tension as Jack seems to be uncontrollable and Wendy seems to be vulnerable and defenceless because she seems to be crying and shrieking. Wendy seems to be vulnerable because she has a weapon in her hand and does not use it. Later on Wendy decides to protect herself and when she does harm Jack she causes very little damage to him. This suggests that she still loves him which can be seen as frightening. · Match action shot: Jack’s hand on the door handle showing him getting stabbed and blood squirting everywhere. This increases the tension and horror as there is gore and violence. · Close up: able to see his clothes which adds to terror as he seems to keep himself clean and looks as if he is a profession · Tracking shot: Wendy grabbing the knife out of the sink and running behind the door. This adds to horror because Wendy is seeking for a hiding place as she is scared that Jack would see her. · Medium long shot: when Jack is breaking the door, showing the violence and terror

Mise En Scene	· Jack: scruffy looking, beard grown, pointy eyebrows showing his sinister and evil personality · Wendy: has a blue night robe: suggesting that she has just woken up and is probably imagining that Jack is attacking her. I think this because she doesn’t seem to defend herself in any way when Jack has his face between the broken also noting that Wendy is armed. · White shower room: emphasising the coldness as Wendy seems to shaking and looks pale · Bedroom seems to be messy: showing the tension between Wendy and Danny as they had to leave the room in a hurry before Jack arrived.

The Shining: Opening Scene

Camera Angles/Shots	· Camera tilts sideways and zooms in: suggesting someone is closing in · Aerial views (birds eye): as if there is a vulture watching and not leaving the audience alone (predator)and playing with their feelings and emotions (inconsistent) · Tracking shot: as if someone is following the audience (prey, this shot also suggests that someone is following the car. However, I have noticed that the camera does not always follows the care but sometimes the car is not shown in some scene suggesting that the camera has over taken the car. This suggests that the film has an unstable effect. · Establishing shot: showing Hotel from an aerial shot, this suggests that the Hotel is isolated and far away from civilisation
Sound	· Sombre and imposing music: scary and threatening · Faint sound of women screaming, as if this is a pre warning leading to the phase horror · String instrument and chanting, suggesting that something bad may occur with the repetition
Editing	· Slow paced editing: long journey, sense of normal atmosphere, calm but expected. This often leaves the audience wondering when the journey will end and what will happen · Fade cut: transition happens when camera begins to follow the car, introducing the car and showing different landscapes, also suggesting the different moods the character goes in throughout this movie · Cut: showing different changes in the landscape throughout the journey · Continuity editing
