Music - classic piece of suspense music, synonymous with approaching danger
the music enhances the presence of an unseen terror, in this case the shark, they use 'Leitmotif' also used in star wars for Dark Vader.
dialogue - Short and simple as the people tend to be acting normal but once the shark
is aboout to attack it goes quite. (less dialogue)
Shots - The script was refined during production, and the unreliable mechanical sharks
forced Spielberg to shoot most of the scenes with the shark only hinted at but
Spielberg also included multiple shots of just the dorsal fin. This forced restraint
is widely thought to have increased the suspense of these scenes
Props - bad weather, manufactered shark, boat, beach/sand/sea.
location - The film was shot on location at Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts,
and had a troubled production, going over budget and schedule

preliminary Task

Evaluation
We felt that our film was a good try and the audience feedback provided us with some positives and negatives about our film. The feedback we had was that our framing was good yet our sound could have been improved by integrating it with the initial soundtrack that we produced.  Our dialogue was also a strong point that our audience picked up on; yet our match on action could have been improved by Lewis and Dean slowing down how fast they were running through the door. We also then realised that this error could have been fixed in editing and we shall take this into consideration for future tasks.
