The sixth sense (Shyamalan, 1999, US)
Sound
The clip music starts off slow and cold like, with
uncertainty, this makes the audience on edge and worried for what they may see
next. But then a piano starts to play which makes us have a feeling of hope, this
could be telling us the story through the music, an uncertain start with a
hopeful ending. The hyper-bolic sound of the light bulb coming on, this tells
us the importance of the bulb because the bulb is old which means that no one
goes down there. This could be because of something which is down there e.g. a
ghost. Another hyper-bolic sound of her footsteps when she is walking down the
stairs makes us realise that she is isolated and on her own.
Cinematography
They use a track in which moves the camera further towards the actor; this is to get a closer look of her facial expressions as well as showing the sense of realisation that someone is watching her. A crane shot is used as well, this follows her looking at the different wines, this is another indication that someone is watching and following her every move.

Editing
A ghost shadow goes across the title of the sixth sense; this gives the audience something to think about and tells them what the movie will be about. After this they use a long duration shot of the old light bulb; this lets the audience have time to ask questions. There was a sound breach during the beginning, when the light bulb was turning on and the door opening. They have used match on action, first shot showing her starting to turn around and the next shot she continued to turn, whilst applying to the rule of thirds. The duration of the shot start off slow but then suddenly get faster when she here the sound behind her, this gives the audience visual actions of the fear the woman is feeling.

Mise en scene
Dark, dusty and dull room tells us that no one has used that room for ages and that there could be anything down there which on one will know about. The costumes tell amounts of detail; she is dressed for dinner and expecting company, this is also to make her stand out while down in the room, the purple dress stands out from the dull walls and other surroundings.
