Analysis of past student thrillers

Hunter 

Camera
The short film starts off with a medium shot of the detective walking into the school office the first scene also contains a tracking shot following the detective around the school. Then the shot changes to a medium shot of the detective talking to the lady at the reception. Then when the detective sits down interviewing the teacher, the shot goes into an over the shoulder shot and a reverse shot of the teacher getting interviewed. From that the scene goes into a straight cut when the detective gets hit around the head with a baseball bat. From there, there's a tracking shot of the body getting dragged into a room. Then the last shot is a dissolve shot and then the scene cuts.

Editing
The scene starts of with a slow pace, that gradually gets faster. Furthermore in this short there are alot of jump cuts throughout this short film. There is also a galaxy production introduction, this makes it clear to who they are. The best editing in this short film was the bat scene, this is because it looked really realistic, it really got the viewers shook.

Sound
There isn't any dialog in this short film, however the short film does contain a lot of non diegetic sound, this sound is the sound track played throughout the film, it doesn't get heard by the people in the film. This soundtrack makes every thing in the film more intense. The main sound heard in this film is the sound of the baseball hitting the floor, followed by the sound of the body being dragged into the room.

Mise en Scene
The film is set in a school office that is where it starts, that is followed by the interview in the classroom. The dress code in this film is pretty simple, the detective is wearing a smart shirt, with black trousers followed by a smart coat. The killer being interviewed is wearing all black, with a beanie and gloves.
