The mise en scene of this film is of a teenage girl laying down on a sofa with low key lighting been shown which may portray that something will be going on sinister, but also low key lighting would be needed for this scene as the girl is asleep. If the lighting was high then it would not make sense as the teenage girl is asleep.
The reason why the camera used this shot and angle was because it could give the audience an insight to what the girl is seeing and to show that when the teenage girl looks out she cannot see anyone. It also gives the feeling that the audience are in the situation that the girl is in.
This shot also tells the audience that there is no one around, which means if there is someone or something out there then she is helpless.
By this scene, the teenage girl portrays that she is helpless and she is terrified if anything does come into the apartment that she is living in. Therefore, she puts on the locks to make sure that she is safe and it always could mean that she wants to make noise to let the person outside the door know that someone is inside.
The facial expression that the girl has used is a look of looking confused, scared and worried about what might be outside the door.
Consider the comments made above with reference to the overview and the evaluation. Both are needed for each of the film analyses.
ReplyDeleteYou state that the camera angle changes - Why has the fish eye shot been used - what does the director want to us to see/feel?
Some vague comments here 'long shot is used to show you everything that is going on' - what is going on and why does the director feel it is necessary to make this evident? You also state that you can see what her facial expressions are like - what are her facial expressions? Which shot/angle has been used to show these facial expressions?
Try and use the appropriate terminology for sound - you can hear scratches on the door - so what type of sound is being used here and what is the effect?
'From the camera shot' - which camera shot?
You state that the camera zooms in and zooms out - why? What does it help you to see/feel/appreciate?
Your last screen shot is very focused on the content and there is not enough technical analysis.
You don't seem to have considered editing in much detail - you may need to revisit your notes from last year to help you with this.
Also try and consider miss en scene in more detail - props in particular.
