Paul



Yesterday I watched the film Paul starring Simon Peg and directed by Greg Mottola on television , the opening scene showed how a little girl made an encounter with an alien spaceship, this opening scene was interesting because it did a good job of building suspense by not actually showing the spaceship. The audience assume there's a spaceship because of the clever use of lighting and diabetic sound. This scene showed me how by using lighting and diabetic sound in an effective way , you can create something that the audience does not see but knows what it is like for example the spaceship. I will definitely incorporate the use of these techniques in my opening scene , the film continued to be entertaining and very humorous , Simon Peg's character was made likeable and his comical timing was brilliant. On a whole I really enjoying this film.
