Film & TV Language: Mise-en-scene blog tasks

Mise-en-scene is a critical aspect to our work on film language and textual analysis.

Remember the mnemonic that will help you recall the different aspects of mise-en-scene: CLAMPS.
  • Costume
  • Lighting
  • Actor (placement and movement)
  • Make-up
  • Props
  • Setting
This is a great video introduction to mise-en-scene from YouTube:



Mise-en-scene blog task

Create a blogpost called 'Mise-en-scene blog tasks' on your Media 2 coursework blog and complete the following tasks from your Film and TV Language booklet:

1) Find a distinctive still image and write an analysis of the mise-en-scene. Use each of the aspects you've learned in the lesson.

2) Find TWO film or TV extracts on YouTube from different genres (e.g. horror, sci-fi, costume drama). Embed them in your blogpost and write a comparison of the mise-en-scene in each.

You'll have a certain amount of lesson time for this but will need to complete the rest for homework - deadline set by your coursework teacher.

Reminder: your Mise-en-scene scene recreation video project is also homework for mise-en-scene - make sure you complete all aspects of the practical filmmaking task too!
