silent hill opening


This opening creates fear from the very beginning as the little girl is standing near to a waterfall edge which would lead to her death if she fell, creating tension from the start. The ritualistic and sacrificial sounds that we can hear makes us stare down into the darkness, waiting for what is coming next. The birds eye angle shot shows how vulnerable the girl is as she is tiny in comparison to her surroundings. From this it is evident that high angle shots should be used in our own film to make the protagonist seem weak and vulnerable.
