  1. Opening Sequence Analysis Vita Pestman-Mackintosh, Sophie Superfine, Phoebe Little

  2. What is the film about?  Examples of Low-Key lighting  •  The short clip revolves around a dead man and his newly-transformed clone  •  The key themes/genres appear to be Mystery, Sci-Fi and Horror •  The main question: "Why there does he want to be clone/ what are his intentions?" •  Low-key lighting •  Focused shots- intimate with the audience •  Contrastingly, the clone wears a hood and mask to cover his identity • Realistic scary props & large quantity of props—believable 

  3. Why watch more? •  Left on a cliff hanger—intriguing  •  No music but you can hear him walking – ominious, secrecy, eery •  When he pulls down his mask and lifts off his hood, music starts which suggests this part is significant •  The font of "clone" at the end it intrigues us because the "l" is a syringe and connotes blood dripping •  The props shown at the end of the clip, during the title sequence, foreshadow what could happen in the upcoming scenes 

  4. Rest of the plot? •  Why is the clone wanting to take over the original man—is he planning on taking other people's identities? Why? •  Maybe he wants to take over the world/he's power-hungry? Once his mask and hood come off – music starts •  Red light: warning, dangerous—foreshadows the dangerous future of the movie •  Are there more bodies stored away somewhere? Lots of blood on apron; it can't just be from one body

  5. Who are the characters? What are we meant to feel about them?  • Main subject: Man portrays an evil character  •  Audience feels suspense when looking at the male subject •  He seems like a powerful character committing a dangerous crime • Second subject: Man lying on the bed— Evil clone man has turned himself into the dead man  •  The dead man suggests that he has qualities that the clone wants 

  6. Aspects which you think are good/bad in terms of quality? •  Once the evil clone man reveals his face, it isn't immediately clear The dead man and the alive clone-man wasn't clear straight away that they were the same person •  Maybe they could add something recognizable (a scar in the same place) to clearly show they're the same person •  The lighting was very good quality; the contrasts of colours helped set the thriller mood/aesthetic of the movie  The "face reveal" shot
