Film Project #1: Mise-en-scène Exploration
Background: One of the fundamental elements of film studies is the understanding and appreciation of mise-en-scène. We’ve covered different aspects of mise-en-scène, and now we can apply these concepts to a single film.
Assignment:
Choose a fmoviethat effectively illustrates important aspects of mise-en-scène in an exciting or striking way. Create a presentation highlighting those aspects and analyzing how these elements contribute to the film’s form and purpose. Use concepts and terms covered in class, and consider how filmmakers wanted audiences to react or what they may have wanted audiences to understand about the film’s subject.
Presentation Content: Since this is a presentation and not an essay, you will be able to be direct and condense your analysis. That said, it would not be enough to simply have an image on one slide and a bullet point with a film term. For example, if you want to analyze a film’s use of setting and how it contributes to mise-en-scène, it would not be effective to simply include an image and “ – Setting” next to it. Give more details on how these concepts contribute to the film’s form and purpose.
