Mise-en-Scene


 Welcome back to my blog!

Welcome back! Today I'm going to be defining what could be arguably the most important aspect of film creation. Mise-En-Scene.

 For brevity, I'm going to refer to Mise-En-Scene as MES from here on out. Let's begin! MES is in it's most basic definition, everything that goes into a film to make the final product, well, the final product. It is used by every film maker or playwrite, and involves the placement and stage design that give a play or film its feel. MES quite literally translates to 'setting the stage' in French, and its usage backs up that translation successfully. There are 6 elements of MES:

  • Lighting
  • Composition
  • Art Direction
  • Costuming
  • Makeup
  • Texture 
Every aspect of MES contributes to the final piece in some way, with everything viewer sees in a shot representing at least one element of MES. The elements all work together to form the final product, and many of these elements often depend on one another for success, like a well-oiled machine. 

Goodbye, and see you soon with another update!

Prezi Presentation:  https://prezi.com/p/-ovwsyoexlzb/?present=1 Prezi Video: https://prezi.com/v/y4em-lccoiy7/ Transcript   Hello, my name is David Martinez, my candidate number is 1421, my center number is US154, and today I will be answering compulsory question 4 for my AICE Media Studies Class.  Compulsory Question 4 asks, how did you integrate technologies - software, hardware, and online - in this project? To which I have to say, throughout this project, technology in the form of hardware, software, and online websites were heavily ingrained in the entire production of my magazine from the first blog to the entire final magazine. Without technology, I would have been unable to complete any of the tasks required of me. Software such as PhotoShop and the game Elden Ring helped me in the creation of my magazine. PhotoShop allowed me to edit and remove the background of the photos that I too...

Compulsory Question 3

 Welcome back to my blog! Today I will be answering Compulsory Question 3. Prezi Presentation:  https://prezi.com/p/vz7yt4yqhl6e/?present=1 Prezi Video: https://prezi.com/v/j_qaogdenhl0/ Transcript  Hello, my name is David Martinez, my candidate number is 1421, my center number is US154, and today I will be answering compulsory question 3 for my AICE Media Studies Class.  Compulsory question 3 asks, how did your production skills develop throughout this project?  To which I say, while developing my magazine, my skills especially in digital design have improved tremendously. This is obvious when comparing my submissions for the preliminary task compared to the submissions for my final magazine. I have improved my ability to use software such as PhotoShop to edit my photos, and Canva to compose my designs into a working item.  The preliminary task allowed me to dip my feet into the world of magazine creation. I had to gather pictures relevant to the topic, ed...
