Notes for Film study


Button - In the eyes and in the draws (Lots and lots of buttons in the draw)
There was a button for an O instead of a normal O,
and also a button that covers the moon before the movie starts as Metal like spider hands
hold the button above the moon or rather it being spider like I would say they were needles.


The music sounds like a soft but creepy lullaby.
One that could easily be mistaken for a child song when the picture is not shown but the song


The colour at the start is dull like it's been sucked out of the movie, to make the movie feel more creepy.
And when the needle-like hands begun to remake the doll by muting down the colours
it's like doing a real surgery on someone


Extreme close up ( when the mother sews the mouth and when the hands sew through the eye)
Extreme long shot (from when after the Tilt happens at the start)
Tilt (Tilt from the sky going into the extreme long shot)


As it goes on after the doll, the colours feel gloomy


Close up (When the man gets paid)
High angel (When Coralline is walking down a grassy gravel like path.
Which makes her look weak in a way)
Low angle (Makes her weak from below as she looks at the rocks)
POV (Looking from Coraline's POV when she looks at the rocks


The music feels intense and creepy.


POV (of wybie while Coraline looks weak and vulnerable)
Thunder and lighting
Over the shoulder (When wybie shows Coraline the well)
extreme close up (on corallines pout)


Dutch tilt (makes you aware something is going to happen)


Colour, Dull muted while Coraline is bright and colourful
Buttons show up on little Coraline doll


Coraline's parents look dull and have big circles under their eyes as well as messed up clothes and hair
indicating their tired


overhead high angel (from above a light)
Dutch tilt (to create interest or something interesting or a change in position)
as well as a pov from the doll.


High angel and Pov from mum


Colour within the movie still looks a bit dull
zoom in on Coraline as she sleeps
Wind blowing as well as a long shot and a bit of more colour.


Kitchen is more colourfull and is a vibrant yellow colour cause the colour  
makes you have this happy feeling,


Buttons again but on other mothers eyes


Dad is wearing orange and he has no bags, his hair is well and his glasses are on his face right.
(Dressed to look happy and energetic)


Zoom in and POV of the gravy train.


Everything Coraline wants is in bright colours
The lighting was shaped like the other mother's hand.


Overhead shot with Skull turtle dog thing and Coraline.
Close up on Coraline's hand when the other mother sticks mud on corallines hand


Everything is grey and dull outside expect for Coraline who is colourful.
Bobinsky is a weird person and somehow had very very very long legs.
He’s a bit boring.
He owns a mice circus (Jumping mice)
Somehow has a lot of strength within skinny arms.
POV shot when Coraline looks over the balcony when Bobinsky jumps over it.


Music is that of a nice soothing sound
Pov When Coraline is at the car upucking a few things.
She met the neighbors


The colours seem a bit more bright than usual
When Coraline drinks a bit of the tea, A hand appears within the tea cup


Hand has been seen 3 times, when thunder clapped in the tree branches and now in the cup.
And lastly at the start.
Owner of pink palace had a twin sister who was said to be stolen
Creepy transition starting from the doll and zooming out
Other mother’s clothes has changed colours and a bit of sharp edges on the clothes,
(Colour black, White, Red)
Other mothers face is slowly changing to make her look like something else then what her real
mother looks like.


Outside is grey and dull
When Coraline enters the garden through the gates the colours seem to brighten up and become
more vibrant, like what you would see at a fancy dinner.


Garden is shaped like Coraline's face.
Over shoulder shot when the other mother is holding the other wybie's shoulders
Mr Bobinsky house is different and more well looked in the other world then the real world
Bobinskis mice spell Coraline's name
Music when the mice curis places is sort of catchy but creepy at the start but tunes into that of a
mysterious one.
Mr bobinsky looks better looking and more presented in the other world then in the real world.
Close up and fade out (Close up to when Mr B kisses Coraline's hands and fades out to the other
mother backing up after kissing Coraline goodnight)


Parents have bloodshot eyes and are hunched over, and there is a sense of no colour to the colours.
(Sharp contrast)
The colours in the real world is dull and in the other world it’s got more colour
Coraline's school clothes are a dull grey colour
Over shoulder shot before real mum leaves kitchen, dull colours of kitchen still


The door to the other world is open instead of bricked off like usual.
When Coraline goes over to the other world in the kitchen is a bunch of cupcakes
and other food and clothes waiting for her.


Music in the theater sounds like music before an on stage show.  
(Theater is the inside of the wybie's grandma's house)
The music is also there for a feeling of getting ready for a big show.
The 2 pictures that the woman do are famous artworks,
the siren is basically when a man wants to hear a sirens so the man makes his men
tie him up so he doesn’t jump overboard,(Men had wax in their ears cause it
said that when a man heard the sirens song, they would jump overboard to
find the sound and then drown, so to stop the men from jumping they stuck wax in
their ears while they rowed the boat. and the other one is of a girl who was born from a clam.


During the show the 2 woman jump out of a sort of bodysuit and now look
thin then what they do in the real world


The clothes for the other mother has changed and the colours have become
more dull and also the other mother’s hair has become more sharp looking
When Coraline leaves the theater a low angle shot is seen from
Coraline's POV to looking up at the other mother and father
High angel (Something to make a character seem weak, also a POV from the other mother)
The high angel came when Coraline left to go inside with the other
mother, and left wybie alone to have the other mother looking at wybie before going inside.


Dutch tilt (Something's not right)
When Coraline's other mother is walking up to her


Another Dutch tilt from when Coraline gets into bed (Something's going to happen)

When Coraline goes to see the other father the colour to the other father
seems a bit more dull and the room is more dark,


Other father looks like he woke up from a nightmare, with glasses not on
his face right and hair messed up.

Dutch tilt (Low angel Dutch tilt) from when the father is forced to stop talking by
the white hands that controlled the piano


As coraline goes further to where the well was the world begun to turn white
and vanish and then as she continues walking the house appears again
The cat chases after a jumping mice, and then kills it as the
jumping mice grows in size and into that of a real mice or rat.


Coraline walks into a locked up room, a room where the other
mother is, as the colour scheme changes to a more bright scheme with a UV feeling
When a zoom in happens to the other mother face, behind the other mothers head is devil horns.
Coraline's other mother grows in size to be more of a tall,thin and scary looking woman.


After Coraline disobeys to apologize to the other mother, she is thrown into a
mirror which behind it is a room with 3 ghost children


After Coraline's is taken out of the mirror (Other room) by the other wybie
the colour is now more of a dark and dull scheme
As coraline is pushed away from the mirror and into a room by the other
wybie, The music gets more dramatic.
A nice POV of when Coraline is running away from the other mother.


Over shoulder view point. When Coraline opens the door to see the real wybie


POV from coraline when she’s up in Wybie's face.
Eye level when Coraline is in the car.

Long shot from when Coraline is sitting in front of the fire with the cat.
Close up on Coraline when she glares at the small door.


Over shoulder from behind the cat.


The other fathers appearance has changed a lot, he’s more chubby,
and is unable to talk by the other mothers orders.
Coraline's other mother disappears from behind coraline, when
coraline is about to shake the others mother hand to say yes to the deal they made.


Other father sacrifices himself to give coraline the child's eye.


When Coraline enters the Theater its dark but above is instead
of being normals dogs, there are dogs that have bat like wings with red glowing eyes.


Coraline shines the light on the bat dogs so they attack the two woman, who are entangled in each other.


Low angel from when coraline yells from mr bobinsky porch calling the mother an evil witch.
The other Mr bobinsky is more creepy and his clothes look more unclean,
like they haven’t been washed in days or weeks.


The other Mr Bobinsky is made out of the rats, the other mother used to give her details in Coraline


Close up from when Coraline is on Mr Bobinsky porch as it falls.
The button is shown when it moves closer to the moon.


A shot from the movie from when the outside of the other world disappears,
there are strings which tell us something about something that will happen later in the movie,
and when a child says to Coraline “Her web is unwinding” like the other mother is pulling apart
the world each time Coraline finds something.


The other mother's appearance has changed. Her hands are now needle-like,
her face has cracks in it and her clothes are more rekted to be considered appropriate clothes.


Dutch tilt from when Coraline is looking at the other mother after the other
mother throws the little thing in the fire
High angel from when Coraline lies to the other mother saying that her
parents are behind the small door (Trying to make the other mother scary and Coraline vulnerable)


Low angle close up from when Coraline's other mother is walking towards the little door


Close up when on the cats face, when Coraline throws the cat at the other mothers.
The bottom of the other mother's room turns into a spider web (Floor)
The other mother appearance changes to that of a big spider


As Coraline races through to the real world, the door to the other world she
shut behind her moves closer to her as she runs away.


The real world no longer looks grey, and we are given a close shot towards the house
instead of a long one.


Music from when Coraline opens the window to the cat sounds more peaceful and calming
Tilt up going from Coraline’s POV to going up to see the 3 children.


When the hand from the other mother finds it way to the real world, the hand moves like a spider would.
When the real wybie throws a rock at the hand, the hand splits into needles

When wybie and Coraline warp the hand and key up into the well, the sides
of the well look like the hallway to the other world in Coraline’s home.


Music changes to a soft and peaceful lullaby.


Colour changes from a bit dull to more bright and happy.
Her parents look a bit better and neater and have fewer bags under their eyes and look happier.


The sky from the ending is blue and the hills are green, but the music given at the end has a bit of a creepy side to it.
