Aspect such as setting, lighting, costume and behavior of figures were controlled to allow the director to stage the event and create the overall effect within the frame.

What is mise-en-scene? Mise-en-scene is the arrangement of scenery and properties to represent the place where a movie is enacted. It is most commonly used to show the setting of the movie. But if used correctly can be used to portray the feelings of the characters and to help tell the story. Orson Welles made sure to use the props, actors, and even the camera to use mise-en-scene to tell the story of Charles Foster Kane to its fullest. Character positions, camera angles and music, and framing used to tell the story in Citizen Kane. It’s use of mise-en-scene made it not only ahead of its time, but it made it a masterpiece.

Movies are one of the most remarkable and prevalent art forms of the 21st century. While we as a society praise the actors and actresses that star in them, we tend to ignore the actions that occur behind-the-scenes, also known as the filmmaking process. Contrary to popular belief, this process doesn’t simply start with “lights, camera, action” and end with “scene”. It can take months, years, or even decades to get a movie made; never mind getting it released. However, in the end, it can all be worth it. Movies can change the world. A documentary can open the viewers’ eyes to what is happening in the world around them, while a science fiction movie can take them to a new

An art film is a motion picture originally created for a confined audience as opposed to a mass market. Art films provide opportunities to display unique conventions independent from mainstream film.They’re clear differences between the two movements film presents a clear purpose of action opposed to the social realism style often seen in art films where the focal points are the imagination and cognitive thoughts of characters and a prominent display of the directors’ diction.

In the classical Hollywood style of filmmaking, the mise en scene, which is essentially everything that the audience sees, depicts an external world that sticks to the norms of ‘realism’ determinded by the conditions of the story. The film historian Susan Hayward insisted that ‘shots, lighting, and colour must not draw attention to themselves any more than the editing, the mise en scene or sound‘ (2). As regards to the cinematography, it must, in my opinion, be unobtrusive. The style itself suffers if the audience is reminded they are watching a film. On occasions when a film does include visual distortions, there is almost always a narrative justification. In John Hustons film noir masterpiece The Maltese Falcon (John Huston, 1941, US), the character of John Spade meets his nemisis and the image becomes blurry. This effect threatens to remind the audience they are viewing a film. However, this is narrative motivated as we find out John has been drugged and we are viewing the film

My outlook on filmmaking and the role of a director have changed. I used think there wasn’t much that went into making a film or being a director. However, the skill level to execute a film as well as direct it is very complicated. So, throughout this paper I will be discussing the different aspects of filmmaking which the director personally oversees. Also, the history of motion pictures, the early filmmaking experience, the history behind the first female director, music & film, actors/actresses, scene selection, pre-production, creative vision, production, scheduling and post –production.

As Schatz, T. (1981) notes that “the nature of film production and consumption, identifying film genres scarcely involves the subjective, interpretive effort that it does in literature. “

Little do many Americans know that some of the most commendable movies of modern film have been derived from a French man and his passion for American Cinema. Directors like Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino have some of the most recognizable names in the industry, and rightfully so draw inspiration from this director and his non- traditional French films of the early 1960’s (Kolker 210). As a leader of the French New Wave movement, Jean- Luc Godard dually managed to purposefully and successfully change how both films were made, and the meanings being enforced in cinematography. Godard, as a director of movies, artfully employed this form of communication to bring a reality to film and shed a new light on the industry “and the ‘something’ that it can do” (Silverman), changing films internationally, and specifically influencing American directors, from the start of his career to the present day.

Different films are composed of different structure, sound, genre, cinematography and of course actors. I think it is safe to say everyone at least once in their lifetime has watched a movie before, it does not necessarily have to be for entertainment it can also be for educational purposes. But how many actually sit and really take in the art of the film itself? To me, movies can be considered a work of art. There are so many things that go into creating a film to ensure that the message is clearly delivered across to the targeted audience. Movies are actually a mirror of life, they focus on real life problems, and the only difference is that the problems are being unfolded on a screen. Movies are such great things because a film could be made in South Africa or even in London, and people all over the world could see it and relate to it. This essay will focus on the differences among three international films, international meaning that they were written and directed by individuals outside of the United States.

The theme of the film revolves around the triumph of good over evil and how the good side eventually wins, diminishing the evil. The movie evokes a feeling of thrill and anticipation through the mise-en-scene it has to offer. Mise-en-scene is the information that the film provides through the medium of vision. Mise-en-scene plays an important role in this movie as a lot of visual effects are used in the film to show a technologically advanced world filled with high-tech gadgets, weapons, and systems.

Mostly all film’s encounter variety amounts of elements to create a beneficial film. To obtain an interesting design of a film, directors manipulate the different fundamentals of cinematography to enhance a symbolic meaning. Some film’s can be categorized into two types, which are realistic and formalistic aesthetics. For instance, the film Pony Excess is a realist aesthetic film that proclaims the actuality of a film, while the formalist aesthetic film, Friday Night Lights, focuses on the persuasion of emotions. In the film’s Pony Excess and Friday Night Lights, realist and formalist aesthetics are conveyed through the fundamentals of a film, which are collision sound, fast and slow motion, real people, and on camera interviews to portray the reality and inner connection of a movie.

Film style refers to the technical practices employed within filmmaking, this includes the use of cinematography, mise-en-scene, dialogue, editing and narrative. Understanding the changes in film style is crucial to examining film in a historical, political and cultural context. In this essay I will be exploring how the coming of sound homogenised filmmaking which resulted in changes in film style. The coming of film sound, transformed an experience which was exclusively visual, to equally audible and “most filmmakers soon realized [...] that sound, used imaginatively, offered a valuable new stylistic resource” (Thompson and Bordwell, 2009)
