Lighting effects



When watching this i was watching this clip i was focusing on what lighting effects they had and then what effect they had on its audience.

The main colours in the clip are white, black, blood red and a muddy brown.... to start with these colours are not very vibrant, this makes the audience think that somthing isnt quite right as all the right colours or full colours arnt there. I think they also played around with the contrast when they were editing, which stop the colours from being so bold and sharp.... it makes the colours alot darker and grayer...

From what i can tell they have used mostly natural light and even that is restricks it, this makes the romm which its is filmed dark and gloomy which creates a tenses and suspicious atmposphere.

They use the light, weather it is natural or artificial to create shadows which they have used alot and it has a great effect on people as it adds abit of mystery to the clip as you are not able to see what or who is there.... This in turn would make people want to watch on as they would want to find out who it was who was making the shadows.

The red contrasts the other colours alot but as it is a blood red it fits in quite well, it makes you think of blood and when you think of blood you think of murder, so then it makes you think that something on the lines of a murder could take place, and this aswell would make people want to watch on and find out what happens..
