slight high pitched sound effects. All
of this combination of sounds is quite
frightening for the viewer as it makes
you feel disorientated and uneasy as

many noises that it makes the viewers

Sound: We hear the minor key
of the trombone being played
and then the high pitched
sound of the scary screaming
noises.
Camera movement: The camera
moves across to view the
castle/house type thing on the
mountain. The camera is filming it
from a high angle, looking down.
Mise en scene: We can see this
castle/house type thing blended in
with the mountain colour. The dark
colour gives a scary, gloomy look to it.
The fact that it blends in with the
mountain makes it hard to see which
makes the viewers think if anything
happened, no one would find them.
The mountain has a lot of snow on it
which shows danger for people if they
want to leave. The sky looks very blue
and there are not a lot of trees
surrounding them, which contrasts the
idea of them being hidden and dark.
