• I have seen in this clip that the faster the cutting rate more more tension is increased.
• The girl is wearing school uniform which emphasizes  youth and makes her weak.
• The majority of the clip was focused around the one girl.
• We are considering using a house as are location, I thought the 3 shots they used on the stairs was interesting and we might want to do something like that.
• I think in this clip there is a obvious show of good vs evil, our clip will be a lot more blurred in-between.
