It’s a symbolic OTS
• This is a symbolic OTS because it is hinting the storyline and it shows mass murder, it shows mass murder by the huge amount of weapons and blood in this OTS, it may also hint death, pain and torture.

The OTS prepares the film by:
• By this OTS you can clearly see that the sub genre is slasher so this means it has established the theme and setting.

Creates Narrative Enigma by:who,what,when,where,how?
• In this OTS it does not tell me who it involves or where it is but it tells me what is happening because it is hinting what will happen throughout the movie.
• Also it does give me the slightest hint of what's happening so this might be to attract the viewer.

Does the OTS Challenge Conventions?
The OTS has elements where it challenges the slasher horror conventions but also has elements where it does not challenge conventions.

How it does challenge
However the OTS challenges the sub genre (slasher) by the contrapuntal sound through out the OTS because opera music is not commonly found within these genres because it does not fit the image of death and gore.

How it does not challenge
The OTS does not challenge the sub-genre (Slasher) due to it has key conventions which are commonly seen within the slasher horrors.
The conventions of the slasher horror which are seen in the OTS are:
• Blood • Weapons (different methods to kill)• Body parts

Characters Represented
• In the OTS there are no characters represented and this is leaving the viewer the mystery of who the character is and what is going on.

Present credits and main title by
• The main title of the OTS is right at the start, the title has the biggest font out of the credits due to they want it to stand out.
• The credits are the same colour as the blood so it fits in within the image. The actor and directors names are all in medium size font and they are big enough to stand out.

I EnjoyedThe veins within the title gives it a nice effect on the image
It creates a better effect than it being plain red, the vein like effect makes it more appealing to the sub-genre(slasher) as it represents blood.

This screenshot shows the gore within this genre and I think this is interesting because the cut fits perfectly into the sub-genre(slasher)

When the credits come up in this OTS there is always blood involved but this screenshot really interested me due to the blood in a sort of exploding motion which represents the genre.
Blood to symbolise the theme.

Fast CutsInbertween most of the credits they have blood splashing and weapons hitting the blood which I find interesting because this also shows to the representation of this sub genre.
