Camera
During the opening scene of Jeepers Creepers there were many camera shots used. It stats off with close ups of the two teenagers in the car. This is effective because it makes the vehicle seem small and claustrophobic. They also use close ups to show the facial expressions of the teenagers. They use point of view camera shots to make us feel as if we are in their situation and get us thinking about how would we feel if that was us. The camera also starts panning as we are looking directly at the antagonist. this is effective because it disorientates the audience.
Editing
The editing pace was quite slow when it was cutting from scene to scene. this created some tension as it made us want to see what happens next quicker. There was many editing shots that cut from the point of view camera angles to the close ups in the car. this is effective because it gives us a real feel of what this scene is all about an we can see whats happening all around them.
Representation
The two teenagers that were in the car were represented as annoying and disorganized. We can tell that they are disorganized because in one part of the scene the male character ask for his mobile phone but it has no charge on it, this is irresponsible and disorganized as it had no battery on and they needed it for an emergency. We could also say the teenagers were nosy as they did not stop starring at the creepy man, this may be half the reason why they got themselves into a troubled situation.
