( Using jump cuts of regular of dialogue to crime makes the audience rilled in and kinda scared of what's coming next instrumental of horror sound adds to the scared part)

(Note: Instrumental could be either a small or in this case Big as this film uses it to feel just as free as the pilgrim feels in the opening also mise en scene the costume definitely helps make scenes feel more real)

Summary: To start off out of all the videos I'd say White Coat is the best one but what makes it the best is how the effects and the low-key lighting were used to create a form of mystery of what's going on and who's that scientist but I would definitely like to include if not a lot then some form of visual effects as it captured me to want to keep watching the video so I'd like to have a similar effect with mine. Continuing with Dare to Thrill the main thing with this one is the multiple cuts and angels fused with the car ride is what really got me and kinda got me energetic in a way as it feels like I was in the car so definitely using multiple camera angles and cuts is something I'd want to employ in my opening scene to get a reaction from my audience. Now lastly the Blue Boar to me felt like I was watching a really nice outline of a Disney film with all of its diabetic sounds of the girl singing as I could feel her wants to be free and happy and with miss - en - scene of her pilgrim costume made me feel l was watching some form of a mystical singing film in simple terms making the opening scene feel real regardless of drama so definitely getting a costume to make the story more realistic is a checkmark for me as well as adding in a song is also one of the others ways to appeal to my audience. But with all of these 9 films combined, they all kinda shouted in their own way, especially with rise, is to make sure I add the title of my opening scene and add my production/credit cause people would want to know who made all of this which could be for good reasons as of who could make such a masterpiece or maybe who made this trash piece of film.
