Pan's Labyrinth- Analysis

Pan's Labyrinth Opening Clip (Spanish..)

The clip opens with a black background with text. There is non-diegetic music playing which is quite creepy and low, which gives a scary portrayal of the film which is associated with that of the horror genre. There is also diegetic sounds of heavy breathing which gives a scary impression to the audience. When the clip cuts to the next scene, the lighting is very dark, and only the young girl can be seen. She is very pale and almost glows against the darkness, which gives the impression that she is the protagonist of the film especially as the camera focuses on her for a longer period of time. This scene then cuts to another setting, which shows what I presume to be a city of some sort. It is shown in  very dark lighting and appears to be surrounded by mist which re-in forces the perception of the horror genre.
