ANALYSIS OF SAW
This clip shows a man who has been kidnapped and has been put into a 'game'. He is in a dark room, covered in blood with hardly any clothes on, this suggests he is being held there by someone. A TV screen then turns on, showing someone in a mask telling him what he has to do if he wants to survive, its now that you get a different perspective and can see how vulnerable the position that he is in, making him fight for his life. The mise on scene used in this clip makes the audience recognise the situation the man is in straight away. You automatically get the idea that he is being held hostage and also, by the use of cinematography, this represents that he is being watched. The sound used in this clip is very low key and spooky, which symbolises how he is feeling and also how the man in the mask is handling the situation. He is doing it in a very sly way by calmly watching the man suffer, while the man is panicking as he wants to live.
This clip has influenced our group as you get a different perspective of the circumstances both the victim and the man in the mask are in. The use of the TV is effective as it suggests that someone has control over him. An idea our group have for our final clip is the use of CCTV cameras, showing that someone is in charge over someone else. So this clip helps us to see the various ways in which how this can be included. Another idea our group has is along the lines of people in this vulnerable position. So this clip influences us into what kind of torture can be used in different situations, and how they effect people.
