Research : The Ring (Opening scene)

Above is the first 2 minutes 34 seconds of 'the ring'.
The ring is a horror film produced in 2002. I felt the opening scene of this film had a lot of ideas which I could use in my own piece; for example the large variety of shots and the quite dull colour scheme. I also liked how there was no music, it added a sense of tension to it because you were fully concentrating on what you could see, then at the end it made the gasp a lot more piercing. I thought the use of micro elements such as the costume (she appears to be a school girl, the outfit resembles that of a uniform) and the camera angles (the high angle shot at 1:51 makes her seem so vunerable) both contribute really successfully to the macro effect.
