Trailer 1

At the beginning of FEWDIO:Mockingbird the scene is set to a normal day showing a man working from home. The medium shot of the male typing away on his computer shows the normality within the scene. As the baby starts crying the camera focuses onto the baby monitor, being a main image this suggests importance at this point. When the mother starts singing to the baby the mise-en-scene suggests they are a happy family as the man picks up a photograph and smiles. The tension begins to build when the doorhandle is turned and background music suggests something isn't right. As the camera cuts from the man to the doorhandle it connotes he's confused and the medium shot of the mother walking through the door shows realisation of the genre. As both of the parents run to the child a cresendo builds to create tension. As the music stops we hear further non-diegetic sound of the parents screaming 'why'. As this appears off screen it allows the audience to guess and leaves them in suspense.
