The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (2011) - Rhiain

  • pans across the lake view - gives you a background knowledge of where it is, this is an establishing shot
  • contrapuntal sound - phone ringing creates mystery - whos on the phone, why are they calling
  • extreme long shot
  • low key lighting
  • SFX - wind
  • subtle, sad music
  • this shot fits well with the music as it is blue toned which creates a sad/lonely feeling which matches the music
  • then focuses in on this house
  • you can still hear the phone ringing - assume the ringing is in the house
  • still has the SFX of wind
  • still has the same music
  • then focuses in again on the man answering the phone - mystery stops the viewer now knows where the ringing was coming from
  • mid shot
  • framing - cannot see the whole view it is like watching him through a doorway
  •  as the man puts the phone down and walks out of the shot the camera tilts down to the object on the desk
  • dark furniture in the room
  • package looks very neatly opened
  • fades into blackness then into opening credits
