Watch the Total Recall Mars Landing clip 4 times
Watch once without taking notes
Watch a further three times making notes on the 4 micro elements

Answer the following question:

How does the director create meaning for the audience using the 4 micro elements, Mise En Scene, Sound, Editing and Cinematography?

Time yourself - write for 35 mins.

Good luck!

Get completely up to date with all your homeworks.

Post an image which you think has excellent MISE EN SCENE.

Remember C.L.P.P.S. (Costume, Lighting, Props, Production Design, Space).

Do these elements provide meaning in your image?
