The Re-occurrence of The Eye


When coming up with the storyline, we thought straight away about an eye being placed, this is often seen within horror and thriller films as a spooky convention so therefore including it within our film ties in with the codes and conventions we were looking at. In the first 30 seconds of film, it is a fast cut of different moving images put together, within this there is a first show of a painting as the camera moves from the bottom of the face, upwards it slowly stops on to the eye. After some more clips and as the narrative is getting more intense, the last few clips you begin to believe that the girl is dead as she has fallen over and is not getting back up again. 


However the very last clip is a close up of the girls eye, closed! But when the voice over and the   other background noises stop, the eye suddenly opens and then fades into daytime. This could give a thought that what just happened could have been a dream and she is now waking up from it, instead of what has happened being reality. Or she may have died and then come back alive, or maybe not died at all! The idea I came up with could be that when the eye opens and it fades into the same girl during the daytime, this could be a flash back of what had happened earlier that day/ week. 


There was no real storyline of what this re-occurrence of the eye means or what it is trying to tell the audience, it was more to portray a sense of mystery and to get the audience thinking of what and why this would be shown.
