- Low key lighting
- woodland areas and vast spaces to show that the character is alone and helpless and it makes it look slightly more mysterious and makes the audience feel the tension and question the mystery.

- periods of silence
- high angle shots to establish the setting and make the audience feel like they are watching the character and that they might not be the only one who is.
- deep slow music
