The issues that the trailer opens up, involve society’s sense of insecurity about our personal safety in an age of surveillance and internet cybercrime. Jack’s home, a warm haven with soft lighting, locked doors and a comfortable buffer of wealth, is disturbed by unexplained threats and intrusions. He is plunged into a state of uncertainty and vulnerability in the very place where he should be safe. This is suggested by visual codes like reflective surfaces (the mirror, the silver globe bowl) which imply that someone else is spying on him, that there is a voyeur in the house. Who is doing the looking?
We were able to convey through visual codes and camera work; by contrasting between the safe environment of Jacks home, and the illusion of someone watching him. Therefore when constructing specific scenes we placed our protagonist in reflective shots to capture the essence of personal invasion.
