EXTENSION TASK - Mise-en-scene

Mise-en-scene

Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014)Crime film/Science fiction film

  In this scene you can see a bunch of people fighting in a church aggressively which subverts the stereotype of having manners in a holy place. Starting with costumes, in this still shot of a fight scene everybody wears sleek clothing as they are in a church what what emphasises the protagonist is the way he chose to wear a tailored suit which might suggest the protagonist is higher class than the rest of the people. The lighting is quite bright and pale suggesting its in the morning also because the sun beams are coming through the windows. The protagonists facial expressions as well as his body langue suggest that he in strong and determined to achieve his goal, it also conveys the fact he is an alpha male as he looks trained to fight as no one is messing with him.

The props used in this scene are chairs to attack with, broken wood pieces and other things used as weapons. its set in a church and its unacceptable behaviour to have fights in a holy place especially in this mass.

Batman vs Superman (2016)Fantasy/Science fiction film

  This is one of the fight scenes of Batman vs Superman, you could see at this moment Batman is dominant judging by the way he plants his foot on superman face. The costume batman wears is a heavy thick metal armour to protect himself from the natural super powers from Superman. This scene contains diamond lighting connoting that those are dark moments and it works with Batman as he's reinforces the darkness. Batman's facial expression suggests that he hates Superman and is willing to kill him. on the other hand Superman's body language suggest that he defenceless and weak this is also reinforced by the camera angle (low angle). The props are mainly uses by Batman, he uses steal gloves to attack Superman. the setting seems to be in an underground gloomy place or even an abandoned building.

The Legend Of Tarazan (2016)Drama film/Action film

In this scene you can see the iconic Tarazan in mid-air about to attack a fierce gorilla. The protagonist Tarazan is wearing tailored trousers in the fight scene which subverts the idea of being posh and classy as he is in the jungle. The lighting suggests its during the day in the jungle because everything is sort of lit because the trees are blocking most of the natural light. Tartans and the gorillas facial expression and body language says that they are angry so the get into a battle. They both have a sense of dominates implying that the gorilla is the leader and Tarazan is an alpha male. Its set in the jungle where most wild life on land exists adding to the intensity and the fact that the scene is rough and wild.

The Interview (2014)Action/Comedy film

Starting off, the denotation you see are the two protagonists in  a situation where they seem to messy up in. In the costume miss-en-scene theme u can identify that the characters are dressing up for something special, in the actual case the will meet North Korea's leader.Actors facial expression is funny as you can't take them worrying seriously because its clear that this is a comedy film. They also look ridiculous holding up their watches and talking to other people through their ear piece. speaking about their watches those are the props they use in the scene, it makes them think they are spys. The seem to be sitting on a bed in a luxurious bedroom in a posh place.
