"I thought it was clever how the girl was wearing a white gown as it meant that the blood showed up more"
^This was a key focus when contrasting colours, the colour of the dress has many connotations such as innocence, vulnerability and shallowness reinforcing the young girl as a character and the fact that she is only a child and these are the stereotypes of that particular age group. As well as this the white gown majorly revealed the blood making the audience immediately notice and would therefore be more engaged in the situation.^
"It was really smart how they focused on the girls hand"
^I am pleased that this point of the film was noticed as it was a minor event however this was where we used the special effect which reversed the movement of her hand making it look unnatural.^
"I like the use of the creepy, childish music at the end"
^This was significant as it was used to reinforce the stereotype of the girl being a child and therefore, vulnerable^
"I felt they could have increased the use of ambient sound at the start"
^Overall there was not much sound (apart from footsteps and car door) at the start until the point where the young girl was revealed to create a tense atmosphere. however this could be improved through the camera quality where we had to cut out all diegetic sound.^
