Exploring Cinematic Elements: Understanding Mise-en-Scène, Cinematography, and Visual Representation in Film Production

Mise en scene commonly refers to all that happens or appears in the camera and hence describing its arrangement (Pavis, 2012). The scene hence is commonly involved in describing or analyzing in depth the sets, composition, actors, props, lighting and costumes. All these aspects are hence much more related to the way the entire movie will be relayed to the viewer.

Basing these aspects on our video clip leads to a very fine description and analysis of its mise-en-scene. The clip involves a very dynamic set that accommodates all the viewers. This set hence determines how the movie looks and feels on the camera (Australia, 2004). The movie has hence been set in a more accommodating manner leading to very clear video pictures and the entire look of the movie.

The composition of the clip refers to the way the elements are arranged. These arrangements determine the way the movie develops a continuous flow (Pavis, 2012). This has hence been effectively met in the clip. The actors are jovial and full with determination in conducting the entire work presented to them by the management team. Their work hence determines the overall movie outlook. The costumes hence match the talk on the movie and hence creating a much more real picture of the movie design (Classroom Video, 2000).

The kind of lightings presented in the movie goes hand in hand with the topic of discussion. Although the lightings makes the pictures and images of the main actors and objects less visible, they enhances the topic on the discussion. The props present in the clip try to make the main topic much more understood. All these aspects hence lead to a very clear and successful formation of the clip’s mise-en-scene (Pavis, 2012). The mise-en-scene hence is much significant since it ensures that the best images and events are captured by the camera and hence producing a much more effective and conversant video.

Cinematography is the art behind the making of moving pictures (Keating, 2014). This art has hence been much useful in ensuring movies and films get the best flow. The continuity of the pictures makes the movie have a more understandable flow (Keating, 2014). Cinematographers are hence highly valued by any film making company since their work is the determiner of the overall outlook of the film.

The BEST Cinematography Advice From Roger Deakins (His Philosophy of Cinematography)

Cinematography has hence been used in our video clip. The moving pictures have been created through this art. Cinematography hence takes advantage of the human visual capacity (Keating, 2014). The persistent human vision capacity ensures that the individual pictures are played in a high speed resulting into a continuous moving object. This property has been utilized in many multimedia applications. The clip is hence completely dependent on cinematography and hence it is continued play in the many video platforms (Keating, 2014).

Editing is the act of improving the work done by the cameraperson (Anderson, 2009). The camera captures many lengthy and detailed events making the entire production process be much more expensive. Editing hence removes the irrelevant pictures and parts from the video. The best parts are retained and made to play in a continuous manner (Anderson, 2009).

The main theme of the play is maintained making the production of the movie to be much more cost effective. The editor hence adds various sound effects and background images depending on the situation. The clip therefore has not been effectively edited although the relevant pictures are present. The editor hence ensures that the respective information is presented in a more professional way (Anderson, 2009).

Visual representation is the act of ensuring every message is conveyed visually. There exist various methods of representing information (Musburger, 2005). The films have the capacity of using more than one representation platforms. However, the use of more than one information representation platform ensures that the viewer gets the best out of the movie.

It enhances understand-ability and masterly of the main topic (Musburger, 2005). Visual representation hence requires the modern technological platforms that enhance the edit ability of the pictures. The clip hence uses this method as a way of ensuring that the viewer is consistently conversant with whatever is going on in the video. This hence brings home the main importance of representing information visually. Any movie must utilize its visual capacity in enhancing information flow (Musburger, 2005).

Music is a combination of vocal and instrumental sounds in a way that creates a beautiful form of expressing emotions (Andrews et al, 2005). Music is hence used in videos in order to set the scene much more effectively. When a certain music genre is played, the human being mental capacity is tuned in a certain way that focuses on the created scene.

Music is hence used in videos as an additional way of ensuring understand-ability and support of the intended message. The clip does not make use of the music capacity (Andrews et al, 2005). Nevertheless, this does not mean that the message is not sent, but it leaves a room for improvement. Music should hence be incorporated in the videos and films whenever possible. Failure of incorporating music in videos leads to lack of professionalism in the film industry. The editor should hence be much aware of the type of music available. The music should be effectively inserted (Andrews et al, 2005).

The sound tracks music that is accompanied by motion pictures in a video or a film. Sound tracks are hence used to convey the messages and to create a way of entertainment within the video. It is hence necessitated that videos should not lack sound tracks since these sounds helps much in keeping the viewer within the required docks (Andrews et al, 2005).

Therefore, any video should have an aspect of sound tracks that is controlled in order to make the voices of the actors heard. The clip we watched hence has the sound tracks that keep the viewer attached on the screen. Any video is controlled by a specific theme (Andrews et al, 2005). The video hence plays in order to accomplish the said objective and pass the theme in a very robust way. Any video that lacks the theme guidance is said to have lost its meaning and hence not even worth watching.

The characters make the video successfully pass the needed information to the people through cementation of a given theme. They are guided by the said theme and hence their actions are geared towards the accomplishment of the main topic. In the video clip, the actors try to mimic the real situation and in so doing, the needed information is conveyed to the people in a more professional way. The main theme of the video is made through a combination of many other themes. These themes hence make the main theme to gain more weight and become more relevant and visible.

The issues that tend to control any video or play have a major impact on the general outlook of the movie. These issues tend to be associated with the human way of life. The issues that surrounds any movie production makes the involved parties be in a conflict and if not early resolved can highly affect the production process (Grant, 2008). Issues also arise in building up of the main topic. These issues help in ensuring that the main theme is fully delivered and hence accomplishing the main agenda (Grant, 2008). Issues do not arise in the video clip we were watching since its shortness cannot accommodate any issue being raised up. These issues hence create concerns.

Concerns are the major issues that are affecting the community. These concerns must be addressed in any possible way. Incorporating these concerns in the video makes it much more relevant and helpful (Grant, 2008). The possible solutions to these concerns should be clearly addressed and hence ensuring that the community becomes enlightened on the way forward. The major concerns affecting the Australian people include myths, national identity, history role, and the place of Australia in world. The most possible and decent way of solving conflicts is through dialogue.

Dialogue is a one on one way of communicating that requires the use of the known languages as a way of passing ideas from one person to the other. Dialogue eliminates major conflicts through creation of concessions (Wood, 2000). This is hence helpful in ensuring that the community remains in harmony. Passing of such kind of information through the movie makes it to be much more relevant and helpful. It generally brings in the issue of concern, which is well addressed, and solution made (Wood, 2000). The incorporation of all these aspects in a movie or video file makes it to be much more relevant and helpful. The outcome is hence an advantage to the entire group involved.
