9 Key Frames



Close up of Josh's face while running. This is to show fear on his face, this reinforces the idea of the Hyper-Mascualted vampires being fearsome. Another reason I used a close up of his mouth was to see his breathing this would be effective as it was cold it creates fog from the mouth and vampires can't survive in the cold.

Long Shot of Vampire crouching on the floor. This is he first shot of the Vampire by itself after its been revealed, this shot is here to establish it and get a look at it. The way I have it positioned (crouched almost on all fours) is to reinforce the feral stereotype, so it is almost animal like in the way that it is sitting. 

Low Angle shot of vampire standing over Josh. This is to show that the vampire has more power over Josh in this situation, this also shows that Josh is more submissive and that the Vampires are higher up in the food chain.
 High Angle shot of Vampire Circling Josh. This shot is also here to reinforce some of the stereotypes mainly the feral one as he is circling Josh like a predator would its pray, its also as if the vampire is looking down on Josh also showing that it is more important.

Mid Shot of Vampire listening to a distant voice. This is reinforcing the idea of supernatural powers as it has heightened sense of hearing. You also see the Vampire looking like a human just with the vampire fangs, this challenges the stereotypes from the previous film of the all being disfigured and 'zombified'.

Low Angle shot of Vampire lifting up Josh before she kills him. This also follows the stereotype of there supernatural abilities as she is lifting a full grown man up above her, she then kills him in the stereotypical bite to the neck.

Extreme Close Up of vampire mouth showing fangs and blood. This shot is to show the stereotypical fangs and blood dripping from her mouth without any expression the vampire face showing her as emotionless and cold.

Mid Shot on Vampire embracing the sunlight. For me I thought that this would be a very important shot  as this breaks every convention built up by the genre over the years, this is a very important shot to reinforce my textual analysis.

Mid Shot of Professor Grace resting injured at a base of a tree. This shot is here to reinforce the idea of a disruption as the Professor looks exactly like the vampire which gets the viewer asking questions and also causes questions to be asked by the group helping the story progress.
