Camera- Focus on a dimly lit light bulb at the beginning. See the woman coming down the stairs from behind a piece of wood. Focuses on the fire, you can see the reflection of the couples face next to the fire, makes them look warm. Head and shoulders shot on the man to see his expression. Pans onto broken glass on the floor then up to a smashed window. Panning slowly into another room, building the tension.
Editing- Dim lighting is used in the beginning, makes it look sinister, unfriendly and cold. There is then a fire which changes the atmosphere and makes it seem more inviting.
Mise-en-scene- Woman is in a building that looks derelict. It is clearly cold but the woman is wearing a dress, this shows she is not prepared for the weather. The main characters are drinking wine which gives the impression they may be celebrating or doing something special.
Sound- Non diagetic music, creates an eerie effect. Laughter, the characters are happy, joking around with each other. Diagetic beeping from the broken phone, builds tension. The woman's scream which makes the audience jump keeps building the tension for something to happen.
