In a small group we recreated a scene that follows the Kuleshov effect. before we did this we watched a video of Alfred Hitchcock explaining the effect, what it is and how to create it.

11- Ferris bueller's day off- Mise en scene

Ferris beuller's day off is an 80s teenage comedy in which the main character, a confident, sly and clever high schooler does everything he can to ensure that he doesn't get caught while skipping school. On this day that he is not at school him, his girlfriend Sloane and best friend Cameron take a trip to Chicago which has its ups and downs. In one scene, because the miles on Cameron's dads Ferrari have been changed, Cameron goes "berserk", screams and pretends to go into a mental state. We then see Ferris and Sloane trying to wake him from this state while sitting in a pool and having him sit poolside. When Cameron slumps himself into the water, Ferris throws himself after him and brings him to the surface where Cameron wakes up and states that he was fine and was joking about being mad. This image shows Cameron sitting in the back of the car, dazed while Ferris drives and Sloane turns to him to Comfort him. The way that Ferris is shown as not caring for hi...

post 34- Micro elements of film form- the goldrush

Scene 1: the shotgun scene The opening scene of the Goldrush sees Charlie Chaplin trekking through the snow and coming across a house in the middle of nowhere. here is where he meets the two other characters; the other gold hunter and the man that lived in the house that they found. as the man doesn't know why the other charactors are in his house he pulls out a shotgun and points it at Chaplin in a funny way. Mise en scene: Costume and makeup: the costume of all three characters stays the same throughout this scene.

21- casting and charactors

WORKING FROM A SCRIPT : CASTING AND CHARACTERS There are only two characters in the scene that we are working on, they are Lucy Pevensie and Mr Tumnus. Lucy :  She is the youngest of the four Pevensie children, is the most level headed and wise, while also maintaining her child-like qualities. She is very trusting and immediately knows that Mr Tumnus is a good, reliable friend even though he admits that he was going to kidnap her. In this specific scene we particularly see her vulnerability and naivety as at only 8 years old she wonders off into a different world without fears or worries that a lot of other children would experience at her age. In the short scene that we look at, we get to see her bravery and curiosity as she discovers Narnia and greets Mr Tumnus. Mr Tumnus : He is the first Narnian Lucy meets is Mr Tumnus who is a faun, which means he is half-man above his waist with curly, dark hair, a small beard and reddish skin, and half-goat below his waist, with h...
