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...

29- directing style

DIRECTING STYLE EXTERIOR SHOTS For our LION THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE scenes, I looked at multiple directors, each with their own distinctive styles. I specifically looked at Wes Anderson, as his warm hues and centralised characters create interesting final outcomes. These images show how we have used the warmer hues and tried to centralise the characters. The lighting also created this warmer effect as the sun had been setting. These images are stills from the first part of the scene, when the two characters - Mr Tumnus and Lucy are outside, and when they first meet.

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...
