Third Example of Horror

   Hey world, it's Aniyah. I am going to give you another interesting example of horror to give you more insight into the different aspects of horror. The movie I did research on was Annabelle directed by John R. Leonetti (2014).

Camera Angles/Shots/Movements- Establishing shots, tracking, shots, extreme close-up shots, and medium long shots are frequently used in this film. These shots are meant to help the audience interpret what will happen, allow the audience to feel involved, and give the audience a sense of intensity.

Sound- Sound Motif and Incidental Music is used in the movie Annabelle. The purpose of this is to give the film a sad and dark mood. There are also non-diegetic soundtrack in this film to feed to the dark mood of this film.

Editing-  Jump cuts are used often in this film, because the purpose is to create tension and to build up the scenes to important upcoming events.

Costumes- The characters are dressed in normal clothing. This is to make it seem like the characters are normal people who live in a normal neighborhood, but that changes once Annabelle enters their lives.

Lighting- Low key lighting is used a lot towards the middle of film, because that is when Annabelle begins her dark deeds.

Actors- In the beginning, the actors were people with normal lives, until receive a doll, Annabelle. The doll starts to haunt them and ruins their lives in way they would not imagine.

Makeup-  The characters wear natural and bright makeup.

Props- The props are the furniture inside the house and the main character of the movie, the doll, Annabelle.

Setting- In the beginning the setting is a bright and friendly neighborhood, but then it gets very dark and eerie in the household of the people that are being haunted.

Elements I like- I like the mystery of the doll and how the lives of the people changed when they least expected it too.

Elements I do not like- Nothing! I love everything!
