Mise-En-Scene Making an Original Still Image Task

Image
How does the way you have constructed your image show an audience the element(s) of Mise-En-Scene that you have focused on?





The image shows the audience most of the Mise-En-Scene because it shows all of the elements clearly. The setting is very prominent and, even though it's blurred in some areas, it's easy to tell the whereabouts of the character. The character has most of his face covered but the audience can tell what he is feeling due to the expression in his eyes. The colours in the scene are mostly dark however there are areas which are quite colourful. One problem with this image is that the character's costume isn't visible which could hide some important details about the character from the audience (for example, whether the character is a student, office worker etc.).


What can the audience read into the plot of the film based around this image?


The audience may have a tough time working out what kind of genre the movie is, however, from the facial expressions of the character and the closeness of the setting, the characters may be able to tell that the character is perhaps hiding from someone/something or that they may be searching for something due to the confused and almost frustrated expressions the character presents. The colours could tell the audience that it's quite a light-hearted movie, due to the appearance of bright colours, but there may be some scenes that are a bit more serious due to the darker colours.

This is important to show when remaking this scene so choosing the cast will be key for this scene. This is the original script that we were given to recreate and stylise into o...

Macro Elements of Film Form Pan's Labyrinth Representation: what social groups are represented: The groups represented in Pan's Labyrinth are mainly people who have been affected by World war 2 in Spain. It focuses on both adults and children, but also the upper class and the lower class that are serving the upper class. Towards the end of the film, the representation also focuses on the opposing side of the war. How effective is their representation and why are they represented in this way: The youth group is represented by a child actress who plays Ofelia, she is shown to be a quiet and sensible child but she also has a wild imagination that can get her into trouble, because the way she acts is similar to how other children behaves it is an effective performance. The adults are represented by adult actors, mainly through the three main characters, Vidal, Mercedes and Carmen. It is an effective performance because they are shown dea...
