Mis-En-Scene

Mis-en-scene means everything in the scene/frame of a film

We looked at the open credits of the film "se7en" staring Morgan Freeman, Brad Pitt and Kevin Spacey.

Costumes:
Freeman's character likes to dress smart which shows that he is a bit of a perfectionist also that he keeps it classic detective with a hat and a mackintosh. where as Pitt's more laid back with the way he dresses, with his creased shirt and no coat in the rain. Wealso see that the colours the people are wearing in the sreet are dark colours which might
foreshadow that something bad might happen and it sets the attmosphere to be dark,dull and gloomy.

Lighting/Location:
The lighting in the begin is dark which show you the type of area the film is set in, like the back streets of New York where the crimes all happen. When you see Freemans character going to sleep he leaves the light on this could tell us that he has seen a lot of bad thing in the world from his work and that he likes to kept the light on so the darkness doesn't get to him. Therain also adds to the gloom of the scene and that it represents that something bad has happened
or will be happening.

Props:
Freeman likes to keep all his police equipment safely hidden where as Pitt has his on show, this tells us that Freeman is a professional and Pitt is a bit of a rookie and like people to know that he is carrying a gun and is charge.

Colour:
You only see the killer in black, white and red which means your a good person or a bad person. When you look at the colours in Freemans house you see that they are functional colours like white and beige.

Media Manifesto

I would say that I am a hard working student, who puts alot of effort into things. I feel that I done well in my GCSE's by achieveing 7 A-C grades and 2 D's. I chose to take media studies as a As level as I studied it as a GCSE and I realy enjoyed the subject and found it interesting. The targets that I set myself for 6 th form was to work realy hard and complete my work to a high standard.I am not sure what I want too do when I leave 6th form as I want to be a teacher but dont know wether I will stick with that career choice as there are many different thingsi want too be and try. The only obstacles that I think I might come across would be the deadlines and the vocabulary.
