The Ring film Review

When researching into thriller films I came across The Ring opening, me and my group have briefly discussed what we may want to include in our film and therefore we are looking to see what films may be similar to get some ideas from. 

The Ring opening is a similar opening to what we have in mind for our coursework, I like the fact that there is not much sound added in the opening, this builds tension and makes it more dramatic when the final reveal at the end is exposed. The girl does various things around the house for example get a glass of water and goes to the front room, these are simple everyday tasks. However it is made clear through camera shots and camera angles that something bad is about to happen/ happening. In addition I like the lighting used in the opening for example it is dark/ low key lighting and gives a sense of mystery. 

I will use this film opening as inspiration for my own opening.
