Jaws 2• In addition to this the audience hears the diagetic sound of
a woman screaming ‘Shark’ which is most likely withdrawn from one of the scenes in the film. The use of the woman screaming reinforces the idea that Jaws is a horror film.
• There is also the use of the diagetic sound of someone struggling to breathe under water, which increases the thrill factor of the film.
• The male voice of the advert concludes with the typical trailer ending dialogue; the name of the film, the release date and where you can purchase the tickets to watch the film.
