Key Moment of Suspense from the Sixth Sense- 1
Composition
Ambient lighting is used because it make the scene very dark which helps to make the atmosphere appear more eerie. Additionally, Cole is wearing little white pants and a white vest. White is usually associated with the theme of innocence and therefore foreshadows when something bad happens in the upcoming clips, he will be the victim. Another aspect to build up suspense is the red tent. Red is associated with the theme of danger which again could foreshadow what is going to happen in the upcoming scenes. A clip that effectively builds up suspense is when you can see Cole's breath, this shows it is cold and makes the scene feel tense and also that his shoulders are hunched shows he is frightened.
Camera Angles
A medium longshot is used to portray Cole with his bedroom in the background and this is where you get the first insight of his red tent. Then there is a medium longshot of Cole going to the toilet. This is used to show how Cole is oblivious to what is going on around him which creates suspense more because it foreshadows something bad is going to happen. The use an extreme close up showing the temperature going down quickly creates suspense because the temperature decreasing could be associated with ghosts. After that, a medium close up of Cole whilst the pink thing passes the door is effective because it foreshadows what might happen next. Then, a point of view shot is used to show how slow Cole is walking which builds suspense because it portrays his emotions. Finally the use of a low angle shot builds suspsense for the audience because its not obvious what he's looking at.
Editing
The use of continuity editing through out builds up suspense because there's lots of different cuts of lots of different elements which foreshadow is some way what is about to happen.
Sound
The effect of silence makes the scene appear more eerie and suspiscious. Additionally, the sound diegetic sound of Cole urinating makes it appear that he suspects nothing which builds suspense because it shows his oblivious to the bad events that are foreshadowed to happen. The use of diegeitc of slamming in the background is used to build suspense because it makes the audience jump as its unsuspected. Additionally, the background music throughout of violins makes the scene feel more tense.
