One of the camera shots that i thought was most effective is at the beginning when the mum finds her sons toy on the bench in the park it slowly zooms in and around, this builds tension to then show a close up of the mums face when she panics, this is effective because it makes the audience feel sympathetic towards her. The music in this scene helps build the tension as they use a low note that makes the scene feel really on edge. The pace of editing at this part of the trailer is slow, this gives the audience time to think about all of the possibilities of what has happened to the boy. In this scene the mum is wearing summery clothing which suggests that it is a nice day, the clothing that she is wearing makes her look like a normal mum on a normal day, this is effective because it helps the audience click with the character because it makes them feel like shes one of them. In the opening we are told that the film is about a mum and her son enjoying their day out at the park. In the beginning of the trailer we aren't really told much about what the genre of the film is going to be.

We are now able to tell that one of the genres of the film might be a thriller, we are able to tell this because of the sound that is used and what is going on in the scene.
