GWTDT Website Analysis


After individually analysing the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo website, I asked some questions to someone of a different age category who has viewed the film on many occasions and recorded their responses. This proved very useful as I was able to understand the website from another audience member, allowing me to acknowledge other features of the website which I had not yet considered or looked into.

Do you feel like the website represents the film accurately?
Yes, from seeing the film I think the menu layout is very accurate. The colour palette is dark mysterious and unsettling. As a fan of the movie, I recall feeling unsettled during the film.

After looking at the website, what is your favourite feature and why?
I love the animation at the beginning as including this form of media in a website is not very common therefore it attracted me to see what the rest of the website had in store. moreover, this animation set the scene for what the website was going to be like and gave me an idea, as I have not previously seen the film, what type of film the website was about.

Does this website inspire you to watch the film?
The website has inspired me to watch the film as it uses the element of mystery throughout the pages, the dark colours and animations within the website has given me an idea of what the film includes however has me wanting more information about which character is which and what relevance they have.

If you haven’t seen the film, what genre would you think it was?
looking at the websites structure and house style I would guess that the film was a dark thriller or horror movie. the dark colour scheme and the animation at the beginning has a very spooky feel to it and the images that are featured are very mysterious.
