Texas Chainsaw Analysis of trailer
By Martina Conteh
Analysis of Shots - After watching the ‘Texas Chainsaw’ Trailer these are
the shots that I would like to recreate in my horror
production.
This shot shows the binary opposite of
‘Light & Dark’. The dark may show that
something is watching over her while the
light may portray the journey she is about
to start to solve the mystery..
This long shot is very interesting because the bars
portray a form of imprisonment as it shows confinement. Which suggests that as the
characters enter the house they have
automatically been ‘sentenced’ to death. This
shot also shows how someone may be watching
them as the characters are shown through the bars, which foreshadows that something's going
to happen.
The different lengths of the bars may suggest
each persons death. Suggesting that the short
bar is the representation of how quickly someone dies and the long bar is how long it
takes for a person to die.
Again this image shows a form of confinement
This image will relate to my production work
(trailer) as all the characters are new to this
environment not knowing what awaits them.
This image shows numerous amount of things.. From a
‘close up shot’ it shows how she is looking at herself in
the mirror while from another perspective an ‘over the
shoulder shot’ the shadow may be looking at her however is inside her as we see the outline traced around her body.
