The Dark Knight Rises


The representation of Ice within the sequence begin to build the movie up to be dark and mysterious and keeps the audience wondering. As it is a psychological thriller they use the codes and conventions in the style of Cooper's work. There is also use of macro footage, jump cuts, cutting up of newspaper, flickering of the camera to build suspense within the scene.

The use of dark colours within this shot shows the mystery within the whole scene as the colours of the scene are set to only black, white and red. This shot is very mysterious as is the whole scene as it is quite hard to predict what is about to happen and what is actually happening. The audience could assume that someone is working on detective work in a laboratory however the mystery stills remains on why the work is being done. Therefore the code and convention to keep the audience wondering and in suspense throughout the narrative has been keyed within this scene.

Within this clip shown, the glass has been broken or partly destroyed showing that there is a disturbance within the equilibrium. This could be giving the audience an insight into what is about to happen as well as they word 'warns' been magnified by the ice as well as the word 'gotham' which is the city Batman protects therefore leaving the audience in suspense that something has happened within the city.
