1. What principles of continuity are used here? How successfully? Refer to specific shots / screen grabs.
The continuity is mainly completely smooth but some parts of the woman's journey are missed out and in the shot of the woman going through the front door, a couple of her footsteps and the opening of the first door are skipped.
2. What is the effect of the editing on the viewer? What are we meant to feel at different stages? (ie before she enters the house, in the kitchen, in the corridor, in the bedroom, running away)?
There is a lot of build up as the woman opens the door. Then a point of view shot is used as she looks around the room and finally comes to the man. Then a close/mid shot is used to show the woman's expression and reaction.
3. What is the 'best bit' for you in this sequence in terms of learning new techniques and why?
The best bit was as the woman discovered the body and ran away, a view is used which allows us to see the woman running towards the camera but also shows the corridor behind her as if there is a possibility of something or someone coming behind her as she tries to escape.
