Mise-en-scene video feedback and learner response

 1) Type up your feedback from your teacher in full.

 - Costume/ Clothing

- Camera Angles

-Shot list

2) Type up a summary of the feedback you have had from the rest of the class - bullet points is fine.

- Background noise

- Lighting

-Setting

3) Use all the feedback you've been given to write your own self-assessment of your video using WWW (What Went Well) and EBI (Even Better If...)

WWW-

    Dialogue went well

    Props 

    Facial expressions


EBI-

    Lighting was correct

    Camera angles were well adjusted

    Background noise was omitted


4) Now reflect on your own work in more detail. How did your planning (script, shot list) help clarify and develop your ideas?

The script really benifited our work as we knew and were able to memorize our lines before production. The shot list came in handy while preparing and editing the dialogue as we were able to fit all clips in their correct postions in the right order


5) Thinking technically, how could you improve your work for future videos? (E.g. filming, editing, audio levels etc.)

Our attempt at creating a 180 degree affect was slightly lackluster. In the future, I hope to create this effect better by placing the light correctly, as we had missplaced it during this project, and having a constant zoom and fill for the face shots as they were unequal in zoom, emphasizing the cuts in editing. 

6) Finally, what have you learned regarding the importance of mise-en-scene in film and television? Write a paragraph to answer this.

I have learned that mise-en-scène is important in film and television because it helps create the atmosphere and makes the story more believable. Things like lighting, costumes, props, setting and body language can give the audience clues about the characters and what might happen in the story. For example, dark lighting can create a scary or mysterious atmosphere, while bright colours can make a scene feel happier. Overall, mise-en-scène helps the audience understand the story and makes scenes more interesting to watch.

  1) Still image analysis Look at the still images on slides 33-37 of the Film Language Powerpoint linked above. Copy the images into your blog and answer the following questions for each image: Identify examples of high and low-key lighting. Say which depict top , back or under lighting . What effects are created by the lighting in each image?    1.  Lowkey side lighting that emphasizes her act of smoking, creating an effect of superiority as a fem-fatale or boss. 2.  Lowkey front lighting, creating an effect of beauty and glamour 3.  Lowkey side lighting, darkening his face creating an effect which places him in a position of power 4.     Lowkey, back lighting emphasizing the grim atmosphere and creating an effect of vigilantism  5.  Highkey front lighting, creating an effect of spotlight where she is caught and brought to light 6.  Lowkey back lighting creating an effect of mystery as we can only see their sihlouettes 7.

Film poster analysis

  I think the film is about a man who hunts down dangerous robots in a futuristic city. The guns and explosions suggest violence and conflict, while the futuristic buildings and vehicles are part of the mise-en-scène, showing that the story is set in the future. I think the film belongs to the science fiction and action genres because of the advanced technology and weapons, which are common genre conventions. The dark colours and shadows also suggest mystery and crime. I think the target audience is mainly teenagers and adults who enjoy action and science fiction films, and Harrison Ford's name could attract people who recognise him from other films. I think the film is about a group of people getting into funny and ridiculous situations, possibly involving horror movie clichés. The exaggerated facial expressions and unusual costumes suggest that the characters will be involved in chaotic and comedic events. I think the film belongs to the comedy and horror parody genres because ...

Film & TV Language: Mise-en-scene recreation practical task

Image
 Script:  -You'd make a decent criminal.   -Okay, so you're an expert on crime. No, the only true expert on crime is a criminal. Oh. Too bad I'm the law. I've found, personally, in my travels, that real men tend to live  by our own set of rules. Lesser men, yeah, well,  they tend to obey the law. Or enforce it. [chuckles] -What are you trying to say, Coltrane? -You know what I'm saying, Isaiah. The fact is that, usually,  when two people meet,  one yields to the other.  The psychology of relationships  abhors a vacuum. -We ain't got no relations, n*gga. -Is that what you think? Okay. I think you're playing with fire. No, man, you got it all wrong. See, I'm Prometheus. I bring the fire. Original Clip : Recreation: Evaluation: Overall, I think our recreation of the gala scene from Nemesis went quite well. The script and dialogue went almost perfectly, and I think we did a good job copying the way the characters interacted with each other. The s...
