Saw 7 Opening scene deconstruction

Saw 7 Opening Scene Deconstruction 

Outside the box

• Camera angles used are establishing shots of a crowd of people gathered in front of this glass building.
• Editing used includes parallel editing moving from the people outside of the box, to the inside, showing this is all happening at the same time.
• Muffled sound of voices inside the box that can be heard outside via the speakers.
• Mise en scene used emphasises the scene as the crowd is busy and they are dressed in dull colours, indicating that this is a city or a town and that it would be a busy morning, a work day perhaps. 

Realisation of death

• Camera angles used are close ups with tight framing, POV shot of the saw beneath her.
• Editing is eye line match of the saw that is moving and how it will cut her.
• Sound of screams and cursing of both the boyfriends, showing her anger.
• Mise en scene used shows how she is chained up to the trap, she has a pink top on with a darker pink bra, showing femininity but also she has something to hide.

Sawed in half

• Camera angles are close ups of her face and body combined with the saw, this way you can see the pain that is felt, the tight framing showing that she can not escape. 
• Editing used are jump cuts from guys, to girl, to the crowd, adding tension, visual effects are emphasised with the saw and the blood.
• Sound used includes the saw slicing through her body, screams from the crowd outside, and blood being splattered around the room.
• Mise en scene used shows blood on her, saw and around the room connoting death, and also she has a pink top on with a darker pink bra, showing femininity but also she has something to hide.
