In our soundtrack production classes, our tutor asked us to analyze the film clip Hooper in the Cage  from Jaws. I am going to identify and talk in detail about the different variety of techniques they have used and answer as to why they have chosen to do so.

Hooper is locked into a metal cage and lowered into the water, with only a weapon to defend himself against the shark. He then is traumatized when he becomes face-to-face with the great beast, as he bashes his strength again the cage. This is called Dissonance; uneasy chords/melodies or tones. As the shark hits the cage and then the uneasy music starts to play. The affects of this towards the audience creates a fear for Hooper as he's becoming prey.

Seventeen seconds into the clip, we hear a leitmotif demonstrating that Jaws the shark is coming into the scene. The Jaws theme makes the audience aware of what's going to happen, making the purpose of the leitmotif to allow the viewers to feel afraid that the shark is approaching. This is effective because everyone then remembers the tune and knows that whenever they hear those two dominating notes that danger is approaching. The technique is also used for Star Wars; Darth Vader's tune and again it is used in the exact same way.
