Props
Old oil barrels create an atmosphere of abandonment or
lack of care taken in maintaining the area, rust signifies decay formed by entropy.
Entropy links to the way the situation becomes more chaotic and dangerous as
the scene progress.
A black hood hides the face of the victim stopping her
from seeing her surroundings and contains her along with rope. The black hood
represents uncertainty and mystery building suspense and tension as she is in a
state of panic and shock. The hood covers the identity of the wearer arguably
dehumanising them to others (especially her kidnapers) .
Rope is used to tie up the victim in order to prevent
her escape from the boot of the kidnaper’s car, this leaves the victim bound to
her hope’s situation as she cant see or move at this point in the scene. The rope
links to the vacuum being bound in the physical sense but also bound to a seemingly
dark fate.
The evil characters have torn old clothes which could
represent their lower status in society, this gives the idea that they are potentially
trying to get a ransom from the victim. The old ripped clothes are also using negative
imagery to emphasis the evil nature of the kidnappers.
The car doubles as both the kidnappers transport and
there inhuman cage used to hold their victim (in the back of the car).
Overall Score: 10/20
