All of the shots seem to feature the protagonist this is because there are no other characters in this sequence, because the protagonist is in all of the shots it gives him prevalence in the sequence it also means that he motivates the cuts meaning he is a important dominant figure in the sequence.

The average length of shot in this sequence is about 10 seconds we can see that there is a big difference between the length of shots as some shots are much longer than others. the pattern between cutting rate is that in the middle of the sequence when we see the protagonist acting in a obsessive way then the cutting rate increases to connote the panic in the scene and this can be incorporated into my piece as we can use this to help the audience to understand inside a psychopaths mind.

Camera movement is incorporated into this piece such as the first scene the camera is zooming into the man standing in the bathroom to reveal him to the audience in a sinister way. Pull focus is used in a way that we can incorporate into our film opening this is because it is a way to show the audience two things in a scene without cutting the scene.

Continuous editing is used in this sequence, this helps the audience to understand that every detail in this scene is very important to the character in this sequence. this whole sequence is given a blue wash this makes the shots look more 'chilling' and gives it a effect which is commonly used in horror/thriller genre. this is useful to see in play here in psycho subgenre film as this is the subgenre I intend to make my film in and seeing it very successfully used means I can consider using it in my film opening.
