Twilight

• At the beginning of Twilight there is non diagetic sound, which is effective at making the audience wonder who is talking, and why she is talking - the importance of her words. The first thing she says is 'I've never given much thought to how I would die - but dying in the place of someone I love, seems like a good way to go.' Because these are the first words she says, it makes the audience ask questions as to why she would need to think about dying. For example if she has some sort of illness that is going to kill her, or someone in her family is going to get killed and she's going to stop it. Since the audience have questions that they want answered in the first 40 seconds of the film, they may feel encouraged to watch it so they can find out more about this girl.

• The scene then cuts to a woody area, where there is nature everywhere, and focuses on a deer. This is effective as it makes the audience wonder what is going to happen to the deer, and why the deer is of any importance in the film. The music then cuts in which is fast paced to show that the scene is going to happen very fast, as something is chasing the deer. As the deer starts running it is like an eyeline match as the object that is following the deer is running also, and since the ground is uneven the camera is going up and down. This is a good thing to do as the audience feel as if they are chasing the deer, so they are more in the film than just watching it.

• The scene then cuts to a girl, who the audience then find out is the one who was talking before. Because of where she is, and how she is all by herself, it can make the audience question if she doesn't have many friends, and if that is why she is leaving Phoenix. She then talks about missing the heat, which is comical as she is VERY pale. 

• She then continues from where she was, which is about her life and how her mum and her new boyfriend are going on the road to travel. This is effective as it gives the audience an inlook into her life, and make them show empathy towards her as she has to leave her hometown because her mum and boyfriend no longer want to be there. 

• She then talks about going to live with her Dad, and they then drive away from their old home in the car. The scene then cuts to an airport with planes taking off, which shows that her Dad doesn't just live around the corner, but infact miles away, meaning that she would have to leave all her friends and everything she knows. 

• The scene cuts from a nice bright sunny day, to a gloomy dark miserable day which shows that her Mum and Dad live in completely opposite places, and how her life may have gone from happy and bright, to dull and gloomy. She impact of doing this is the audience want to continue watching the film to find out if she likes it where she now has to live with her Dad, and if she will see her Mum again. 

Twilight could give us good ideas when making our film because we could show someone's emotions by the brightness and gloomyness of the day, and the change of place by the weather. Also it could be a good idea to have the non diagetic sound over the top at the beginning of our film, to help engage the audience in what our film is going to be about.
