Film & TV Language: Mise-en-scene video feedback and learner response

 1- WWW: Good script, costume, audio editing along with use of canned laughter, colour for genre, props /school like and lighting, the movement of the camera

EBI: Ambient noise/ audio levels

2- WWW: Good sound track, clear sound, setting + props, cinematography, good use of high key lighting, good acting, nice editing, facial expressions and canned laughter.

EBI: Fix audio levels and external noise

3- My WWW would be the use of camera movement such as getting all the characters in one frame, props for example the lockers and the poster made, soundtrack like adding in the canned laughter, the use of planning and the script, colouring throughout such as adding a pink hue

EBI: I could of edited the end such as toning down the volume of canned laughter so the actors voices' could be heard. Additionally, filming in a empty and quite location or using mics so it can pick up our voices instead of outside noise.

4- When planning the camera shot list, my group and me had an idea on how to position the camera when recording and who will be present in the frame. While on the other hand, the use of scripting helped everyone memorised who's line is who along with having a list presented on which actor is playing who. This helped everyone clarify our ideas throughout the recording process. 

5- I would pick a clip where a fixed camera position is used, so we can use a tripod, Whereas filming in a quite location such as a home. I would start to edit on adobe as for my clip I used capcut because I need to learn how adobe works so I can improve when the time for coursework comes. I would fix audio levels as mine was muffled and loud at the end of my clip

6- I have learned that mise-en-scène is extremely important in film and television because it helps create meaning, mood, and atmosphere without using words. It includes everything we see on screen, such as lighting, costume, setting, props, and the actors’ body language. These elements work together to communicate messages about characters, themes, and emotions.

Film & TV Language: Film poster analysis

  BLADE RUNNER From the film poster, 'BLADE RUNNER' suggests the genre of the film is Sci-fi / Action through the use of  mise-en-scene  and  iconography .   One way this is achieved is through the serious  expressions  among the characters such as the guy holding a cocked gun and sweating from his forehead, which communicates a sense of serious and danger in the Film. Additionally, we can tell the male is the  protagonist  because he is contracted with the female in the dark light, holding a cig. Which  communicates  an addiction, smoking is often associated with negative meaning, which may make her the  antagonist. Moreover, in the right hand corner a  solgane/ tag line  is shown, "man has made his match.....now time to face the problem" the verb, "made" suggests he has made the  antagonist . She is a robot made by the protagonist. Such as for helping him with his missions or  in a romantic/ sexual relatio...
