This adds to the magical side of the film, therefore invoking excitement in the younger audience. Visual effects have also been presented through the creation of the fairy Tinkerbell as she has been reduced in size and has fairy dust following her around. Continuity editing has also been used throughout as it is a simple scene of children playing in their bedroom therefore it does not distract the audience of the current events occurring. This further highlights the fairy tale factor to the film. This projects the notion that he is a confident character who enjoys causing mayhem.Ī shot reverse shot is then used in the aim o f showing the 3 characters acting out their story whilst telling it themselves. When we come to see Peter, there is an extreme close up of his eyes whereby we see him cock his eyebrow up mischievously. This projects the notion that Wendy holds more importance in the film than her siblings. This then cuts to a two shot of her two younger brothers and their dog (also dressed up) who are sitting on the floor listening eagerly to their sister’s tale. We see a mid shot of Wendy which allows us to see that she is dressed in fancy dress armour. It then focuses on a window through which it pans into in order to reveal a young girl, Wendy, standing up as she excitedly tells a story to her two younger brothers. The camera then pans through the sky, looking down at the snowy houses as if the audience themse lves were Peter Pan, flying through the sky. This is then followed by the title “Peter Pan” which implies that Peter is the child who doesn’t grow up which makes the audience question why as well as adding to the fantasy aspect of the film. The phrase “all children grow up” is slowly faded on the screen followed by words “except one” which accumulates an element of intrigue despite the soft tone and atmosphere which has been created. The story is introduced in a fairy tale type of style as the type of font looks like one you would find in a story book with a dark blue, starry background to further emphasise the magical tone of the film. The title shows that we are going to be following the journey of Peter Pan and the alliteration of “P” creates a harsh sound, implying that these adventures aren’t going to be pleasant, thus creating excitement within the audience. The title “Peter Pan” tells the audience that this is an adaption of the beloved children’s book “Peter Pan” which indicates that the genre of this film is fantasy inco rporated with adventure and is mainly directed at children and families.
