Pan's Labyrinth full length trailer

This is the trailer for the film Pan's Labyrinth, and I have decided to look at it for some extra research. One of the first things I noticed about it is that it uses both the light and the dark to manipulate the audiences. The film is a Spanish fantasy film with some occasional horror clips, I like that the film uses light in some horror scenes because it breaks the traditional technique of using the darkness to scare the audiences. When using light, the audience will be able to see everything that is going on which is also a strong technique to use. On the other hand, I will use the darkness quite a lot so that the audience cannot see what else is going on apart from what I show them. This adds extra tension and suspense to the video so the audience will be wondering if anything is in the background. I will use the light and the dark to contrast the two characters in my video (killer & nightmare= dark, victim = light).
