| Mad Hatter - Alice In Wonderland. |
One of the main characters in Alice In Wonderland is the Mad Hatter. The size differentiation between Alice and the Mad Hatter suggests there might be a fantasy theme in the film. In addition, the way the Mad Hatter is dressed conveys this may be a fantasy as we wouldn't see someone dressed like this in everyday life. Also the dark lighting creates an uneasy atmosphere along with the sinister building at the back and Alice's and The Mad Hatters facial expressions. Even though nothing looks normal, these two characters are having a tea party, which may imply there is something unusual.

The Maze Runner
The main character in this film is Thomas ( Dylan O'Brien ) and the story is based upon a group of people trapped in a glade and they try to escape through a maze.
This scene starts off quite tense and fast moving and therefore sets a dramatic pace for the rest of the film. The dark lighting and lack of colour in the beginning sets a thrilling and intense atmosphere. Also, the loud sounds of the machines churning makes everything seem more thrilling and scary. As well as the sounds of the machines in the background, there is a build up of dramatic music which sets a feel of danger. In addition, the way both characters are dressed conveys they have been in some sort of trouble or don't have the right facilities to dress nicely, as they're dressed in a scruffy matter. They are also wearing backpacks and carrying weapons which suggests they may be in some sort of danger. Both characters look quite scared and they're both running for their lives trying to escape. Right at the beginning the pace starts off quite slow and then as soon as they start running the music starts and everything gets more intense.
The Strangers
This film is about two couples going away for their honeymoon, and end up being terrorized by three masked killers.
This scene immediately gives off a sinister feeling, due to the eerie music being played in the background and the sound of metal being scraped on the floor continuously. This begins to get more intense as the distressed looking actress gets up slowly and gets closer to the window. The use of the knife emphasises the fact that shes in danger and makes the scene seem more intense. More so, the actress has a distressed facial expression throughout the entire scene and her shallow breathing creates tension and a spine-chilling atmosphere.
Furthermore, as soon as she sees the masked person behind the window the sudden dramatic sound sends a horrifying shock to the audience and makes it even more scary. The use of the record player playing in the background and the continuous banging creates more intensity to the scene and adds to the sinister atmosphere.
Alice In Wonderland
As soon as this scene starts you can tell its a fantasy, due to the characteristics and the surroundings. Furthermore, you can tell that this a wacky/funny film, mainly because of the fun music and comical singing in the background. In addition, you can tell this is a fantasy, as you wouldn't see tea pots singing and dancing in everyday life. The main character Alice, doesn't seem taken back by this and joins in which adds to the theme of fantasy.
In addition, the use of fireworks at the end creates a happy atmosphere. The facial expressions of the characters convey to the audience that this is a wacky film, along with their colourful costumes.
