Zombieland homework

Zombieland homework
the Zombieland title sequence shows people being chased and killed by zombies in slow motion, the music in the title sequence is heavy rock.
The mise-en-scene gives away that the genre of the film is horror as the costumes are people dressed up as Zombies and the setting shows the places are destroyed, the make up shows that it is a horror as the people in the sequence have blood and cuts on there faces. You may be able to tell that this film is a comedy as well because of the light colours in the background.even though there is blood and death in this sequence the light colours suggest that its a joke as they are not following the horror themes.
The camera work in the sequence is used to make the whole sequence slow motion, slow motion is used to show the disaster of what is going on in the sequence.
the music in the sequence is heavy rock and shows the panic of the people running from the Zombies. The music also may suggest that the film is a comedy because in a normal horror film the soundtrack would normally be slow and then gets faster and faster to build up the tension. However in this sequence the music is heavy from the start and doesn't build up to anything.
The whole sequence suggest that the film is a horror/comedy has the mise-en-scene shows that the blood, weapons, setting suggest that its a horror but the colour, lighting and the music may suggest that the film is a comedy, also in the sequence they juts show people being killed and attacked by Zombies which may suggest the films doesnt have a real story but they just want to show people being killed.
