This image is a closeup. The use of a close-up allows the director to break-the-fourth-wall in a sense by having the actress stair directly into the camera. With her eye-line falling into the centre of the screen, the girl is directly addressing the audience. This allows the audience to sympathise with her. However, her expression is one of deranged joy, bringing the fact she is possessed to the forefront of the viewer's mind. The make-up is used effectively to convey the idea of an evil character, with the withered lips and rotten teeth creating a sense of unnatural decay. The use of contact-lenses to decrease the size of the pupils is also effective in the relatively dim light. The lighting, though dim, suggests some kind of holy intervention, as the light is white and coming from above. This contrasts with the demonic visage to create a subtle feeling of a duel-layered character. The angle of the camera effects Her personality as well, as it is straight on. This is unusual because of her powerful nature, usually it would be a low angle shot. However, the resistance of the innocent girl is creating a tip in the balance of power, keeping the demon in check.
This is a Wide-Long shot. The distance that is created by the Long shot allows the director to use lighting in an effective manner, placing the main source of light at the end of the tunnel. This creates a darkness towards the bottom edge of the screen, and this darkness creates the feeling that the audience is hidden from, or even stalking the character. The character is placed entirely in the middle of the screen, showing her displacement and emotional detachment from her surroundings, and suggesting it is not her usual habitat. Keeping the character in the middle and bottom of the screen also creates a feeling of foreboding and uncertainty. The walls of the tunnel are used to create a closed-caption shot, further adding to the sense of entrapment and displacement. The broken bits of rock and stone from the ceiling show the tunnel is old and decrepit, most likely abandoned.
The Warner Bros logo resembles a shield, the gold and blue making the viewer think of richness. The initials inside of the shield are stylised to look more symmetrical and to perfectly fit the shape of the border. The background adds a sense of fantasy, or of freedom, With the clouds showing that the shield is floating in the sky. Their parent company is located just underneath the shield, not needing to be separated by any means because the company name bisects the shield.
