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


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

Opening of scene shows clear thought behind dialogue and camera shot. Placement and movement aspect of mis-en-scene is good but costume/shoes are so important for character and are slightly different to original.

Locations are generally very good (perhaps teacher going outside aside) but costume/casting of teacher could have been closer to original! 

Editing and sound is generally good!

 

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

  • Good acting and movement 
  • Good choice of location 
  • good dialogue 
  • Accurate angles 
  • costume could have been better 
  • Good lighting 

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: i had the right idea and set the right theme for the overall production to feel like a recreation

EBI: I need to focus on the details that really set the tone of recreation (costume and movement)


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

Planning out each scene separately based on when the camera cuts really helped make things easier. The script was fairly easy to prepare as there were not that many lines of dialogue


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

Prepare earlier to have time to make adjustments and make things better. Try new things when editing


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

Mis-en-scene is a make or break when trying to portray a specific atmosphere. The lighting itself sets a bold statement and then the costume adds on to the personality of each character. Props and set dressing communicate enigma codes and the setting establishes the initial tone of the scene. Domestic settings bring audiences comfort and communicate a safe atmosphere whereas a dark alleyway would cause an audience to be wary, uncomfortable and nervous

  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?             Low key lighting soft lighting for glamour weak filler  for a mysterious, enigmatic effect (cant see where she is) High key lighting for a realistic effect Strong back light low key  lighting  Strong back light  to create a strong mysterious effect (can only see half his face) Mix of light as there is light deliberately on his badge and gun to show is the protagonist High key lighting  Top lighting to make her look glamorous No filler -there is a shadow showing a little of her silhouette  Her facial expression shows her fear and that she sees something scary Low key lighting Back light  to see silhouette   Week filler li

Sound video feedback and learner response

 1) Type up your feedback from your teacher. Minor technical point- resolution of image in places This meets the brief well- good choice of music and the parallel section is perfect. Good pace and transition to the editing too The contrapuntal section works (particularly the black and white effect) but perhaps doesn't have the same impact as some of the contrapuntal sections we have seen 2) Type up your feedback from fellow students - you can summarise key points if several students give you similar feedback. Good choice of music good switch from happiness to sadness smooth transition quality could be better 3) Now reflect on your work and write your own evaluation of your video. Write a 'What went well' (WWW) paragraph and a paragraph for 'Even Better If' (EBI) underneath the rest of your feedback. WWW: Met the brief and used good pictures to match sound EBI: pictures could have been better quality and I could have tried to make the pictures that are contrapuntal a
