Flames are often associated with fight, war, and destruction. There is a colour scheme of yellow, red, and black; red symbolises aggressiveness, anger, and
“Rosebud.” The brilliance of this film comes from the cinematography and shows the assertions of humanity through its use of Mise-en-scene and various technical aspects such as low angle shots and Deep-Focus shots. The use of Deep-Focused shots made this film appeal to people both literally and visually; Deep-Focused shots are usually accompanied by the use of Mise-en-scene in order to set up the scene so the audience is fully invested in the
Interestingly, Hitchcock also uses parallel mise en scene in this shot to the previous shot of Norman looking down at Marion’s car being dumped at the swamp. Through this initial shot even before any interaction takes place, we feel uneasy and even perhaps are able to guess that the death of Argobhast is
but also a very specific style that differs from the classical norm of Hollywood movies. This movie became extremely significant for its time and changed the face of film history. Orson Welles brought about a new way of filming with his use of low angle shots, three point lighting,
reveal and confirm truth. Howard’s film A Beautiful Mind clearly shows that truth can be subjective, this is seen in many instances throughout the whole film. In the hallway scene at Princeton where Nash is saying goodbye to Marcee there is a medium shot being from the professor who is poking his head out of the doorway being used and also in conjunction to this the scene is tightly framed. This framing can be
Personally, I did sense a change in the overall “mood” of the film, (through the progression of scenes and such). I thought that it became lighter but also (mainly) darker throughout the whole movie. For one, the director Orson Welles, opened the entire movie with a very caliginous, horrendous and intimidating scene-that follows the death of the main character or “hero” of the film.

the camera shots and camera angles when Pai is giving her speech to Koro, the use of camera angles and props in relation to the dialogue when Pai if fixing the motorboat engine, and the use of props when Pai is teaching herself to use the Taiaha. The use of camera shots and camera angles while she is giving her speech to Koro, helps to show Pai's important attributes which are necessary for a good leader.

Mise en Scene - In the opening scene there is a close up shot of a painting which shows the pale man eating and killing innocent children. Ofelia is scared when she looks at this thinking that this might happen to her as well.

frustrates the audience because Juliet does not speak to him. Romeo takes the poison, he dies, and the silence after his death is so tense. We then hear the sound of Juliet crying when she loads the gun on her, and moments later, the sound of the gun shot echoes. The camera shows the two lovers happy in death and we see a flashback that reminds the audience of the night they met and the happy moments that they shared together. The flashback gives the audience the idea of their troubled but happy relationship
