Opening scene

Paragraph writing 

In the opening scene music is used to effectively to create an atmosphere. For example,

tempo, chords and dynamics make it feel like a creepy lullaby. The tempo starts off slow 

and gets faster which builds intensity. It is in the minor key which makes it feel sad. This makes

the audience think the film will be mysterious, scary and creepy.
