            Setting in film is its time and place. Either the setting is stated clearly to us, or it is subtly hinted at. It can be inferred from the environment, dress, culture, architecture. In film there are many key characteristics some of them being Mise-en-Scene, cinematography, editing, color, sound & performance, and shots. Some of the characteristics that have I   established  as the most predominant to a film producer is Mise-en-Scene because without the Mise-en-Scene elements the film wouldn't have a set mood. Mise-en-Scene contributes  to the overall presentation and look of the film,  and it also contributes to helping the audience understand i nformation  about the character and what they are trying to represent. The least significant to a film producer would be color in my opinion because many movies could be made in black and white. In many films in this period have scenes with color and some with just ...

                                The objective of this blog post and assignment was to apply your understanding of how mise en scene codes and their relationship to the genre conventions of a film. Genre in film is  categories that define films based on narrative or stylistic elements .

The genre Horror  tries to make its audience feel scared or disgusted for entertainment. The genre Romance focuses on the central love story or love connection between characters. The genre Adventure  either creates danger or excitement for the reader. I am interested in the 3 selected genres because when I'm  watching a film I  like to be engaged in the film and with these genres I...

          In this exercise we learned about the Mise en scene codes and what they can do to better a film. In class we watched a short video on YouTube that informed us on the deeper meaning and use of Mise en Scene in films. The title of the video was: What is Mise en Scene - How directors like Kubrick Master the Elements of Visual Storytelling. Mise en Scene is the arrangement of scenery and stage properties in a play. Mise en Scene is important in film because it helps build mood and atmosphere for the audience and helps give more interesting elements to the film. The elements of Mise en Scene are Sets, Props, Lighting, Costumes, Actor Blocking, and Shot Composition. 3 things that I took away from watching the video was that Mise en Scene helps build element to a film and it's in every film, it helps contribute to the overall presentation and look of the film, and there are many different codes in Mise en Scene.
