Fonts and titles: These were in Handwriting/ Sariff (printed text)

Camera Shot:The camera shots uses were close-ups, extreme close ups, long shots & establishing Shots

Camera angle: it used straight, low and also high angles

Camera movement: it uses more handheld cameras

Sound: Non-Diagetic-Slow creepy noises, low sound, low drum beatDiegetic- makes it seem more realistic as the characters can hear it themselves as well as the audience

Special effects: Slow motion

Transitions: Fade in & out, dissolve

Editing / Pace: Fast and slow cuts were used and the pace went from slow to fast

Images:Denotation- picture of a baby, character covered in bandagesConnotation- it shows the audience anger, danger, torture & abuse

I think the target audience is for slightly older teenagers and adults as they would be able to understand it more than a younger audience.

I know this because I have known people of a younger age that found it hard understand and also people of a older age the did understand
