Gunmen dressed completely in black. Black connotes depressing thoughts and sometimes evilness. This could be reflected in the gunmen’s personalities, as they seem to show no remorse after killing both the shop owner and the old lady.

The mask makes the gunmen seem very mysterious, which is a typical convention of thriller films. It also could represent their personality being hidden as well as their identity behind their mask.

The gun being pointed at the shop assistant makes the audience understand just how real the situation is and how scared the shop assistant would be. It also makes the situation a lot more extreme and dangerous as the gun has the potential to kill someone

Light in the background contrast to the gunmen dressed in black in the foreground and makes them stand out a lot more.

Eye level, mid shot shows the audience what they would see if they were a spectator of the event. It helps give the audience a deeper understanding on the situation and it also allows them to feel how it would be to be in the situation, which is an interesting way of engaging with an audience.
