The track playing in the background remains quiet and slow, giving off a unhurried and creeping atmosphere. Making sure that the soundtrack doesnt overpower the scene, by becoming too powerful, helps create an eerie sense to the scene. Falsing this idea of a eerie setting apon the audience helps build up the tension. Can then lead to the Audience, gaining a strong focus within the first few minutes of the film.

Having very slow and gradual moving clips, for exmaple the pages turning of the book, can also help emphasize a certain sense of tension.

This then helps it stand out and be obvious to the audience. The font also helps breaks up each clip. Breaking the clips up, and creating gaps can show an idea of uncomfortable and awkwardness. This is good as it can help to build the tension furthmore, by making the audience recognise that its not 'running smoothly'. The sharp movements of the lettering also bring a frighting idea to the film, as they appear to be very unsettling.

Its from there, where the film can suddendly drop the climax, creating a 'cliff hanger', or allows a certain event which may start the film off...
