Film Analysis of Jaws The film that I will be analyzing will be Jaws. The film JAWS was a trend in the summer of 1975 smashing all box office records. Over taking many box office hits and collecting in more than $100million in its initial theatrical run, and launched the career of director Steven Spielberg. The reason why it is set on 4th of July is because it is one of the busiest days of the community and a lot of tourist come down onto the beach. At the beginning of the film the music that's plays at the back ground is soft and quiet. This makes the audience feel suspicious that something is going to happen, as the shark swiftly moves through the weeds in the deep murky water the tension on the audience builds up. The instrument that is playing the music at the background is a cello. This instrument is mostly played at a funeral. The director Steven Spielberg has used the instrument to frighten the audience when ever they hear the music kick in. on the beach when the second attack took place everybody was having fun and playing around. The people on the beach were all relaxed and they were all chilling out by listening to the radio. This makes the audience fill safe and less tense from a shark attack. When the shark attacked its victim there's always a pause of silence. This shows death because there's no more noise of the victim crying for help and crying in pain. It also shows how soothing the ocean is and how piece full it is. The second shark attack was when everyone went onto the beach even though chief Brody said that they should shut down the beach. Alex walks up to his mother which is wearing a yellow hat and aske... ... middle of paper ... ...ellow shirt and trunks throws a stick in the sea for his dog to fetch this was a long shot as we see the pupil in the sea having fun. The dog runs in the water as well as Alex both very exited playing in the water. Alex gets onto his lilo which is yellow as well and starts to swim (medium shot). Brody continues to watch the sea nervous as it is his first date. He sees a black object coming closer to the kids in the water he gets tensed as well as the audience do but then the black object was a old mans swimming hat. This shot was shown as a long shot because it looked like a shark coming in to the beach as we couldn't see it properly. The sun burnt man talks to Brody blocking Brody's view of the sea. This shot was a close up and you can see the tension on Brody's face as his sweated like a pig in the scorching weather.
The close up shot of the sheriff overlooking the people on the beach with the look of concern and distress, opposed to the family in the background, smiling and enjoying the nice sunny day. This shot of him explains his perturb feeling that he knows what awaits in the water, unlike everyone else. The long shot of the person floating in the middle of the sea exposed makes the audience feel relaxed but also cautious. Over the shoulder shot shows the attention is not on the man talking to the sheriff but on the woman in the sea, which was a false alarm, of the woman screaming, but also keeps the audience alert. Another long shot is shown when the children get up to go to sea, makes the audience anxious for danger that is about to happen.
