> The lighting throughout Is dingy, this helps towards the 'Thriller' theme because not only does sound help with suspense, so does the dim lighting; fear of the unknown is what makes us scared. And with dim lighting, we are unsure of what's on the screen. Especially the scene where the 'fat man' is dead, the lighting is dark and Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman light up the room with torches, this makes the atmosphere creepy, because only parts of the room are lit up, and we are unsure of what's really happening.
> The costumes used are different for both Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman. Brad Pitt's character is more relaxed with the outfits he wears, which is a baggy shirt and tie and a loose jacket, and this reflects on his personality, you can tell he is more laid back than Morgan Freeman's character who's clothing represents his personallity. He wears more of a formal outfit (hat and trenchcoat, typical detective man style), showing he is more dedicated to his job.
>The music in the clip is used to add tension which is typical of this type of movie, in the title sequence it is very freaky music to build an atmosphere for the rest of the film. Before that there is a scene with morgan freeman in a bedroom and all you can hear is people talking in the background and a metronome ticking showing that he is a very simple man and has some weird habits.
>It begins with a eye level camera angle giving you an establishing shot, to show him at home is his own environment and how he acts.
