Mise-en-scene
Costume:- Armour to show authority, Man wearing a coat with beads to show his importance and power, The boy is wearing trousers and arm selves as he is fighting, and the men fighting him are wearing rags as they are unimportant. The women are wearing dresses.
Lighting:- The lighting is very low key, this helps set the tone of the rest of the movie. It makes the movie seem like it had a 'darker' tone to it.
Actors: There is a mix of ages and genders in the film.
Make-up:- There is dirt on some of the fighters faces, but that's all.
Setting:- The film is set in a castle with dungeons.
Camera
To start with there is an establishing shot, followed by a mid to long shot of the men in armour, there is then a close up through the bars to show the emotion then a medium shot of the same man. There is then another close up to show the emotion of the man. There is a long shot later followed by tracking establishing medium shots from different angles due to the speed of the fighting.
Editing
To start there is a little animation bit and after this the establishing shot of the setting fades in. It is normal speed with slow editing. The editing then gets quicker in the fight scene, this also has slow motion bits including the jump and hit followed later by the boy catching the arrow. It also has jump cuts. The titles appear at the beginning, and follow one after the other. The werewolves are also edited in.
Sounds
Diagetic:- The growling and roar of the werewolf, the door clicking followed by the shot of the arrow this is then followed by a growl and then a baby crying, and the crossbow click but no shot. Then the door smashing shut. It then jumps to the boy landing on all fours with a small noise, there is then the fighting sounds such as "argh" and "ourgh". Finally there is an arrow shot and then dialogue. The dialogue creates enigma to what is going to happen next.
Non-Diagetic:- Quiet music which creates suspense. Then you can hear the men and their army sounds. Narration at the beginning to set the storyline. Lightening also helps set the mood and tone of the movie. There is then a windy sound followed by a build up of sound which adds suspense.
