( POST NINE )
MISE-EN-SCENE
Her (2013) still image
setting
buildings dominate and frame the shot
the cityscape dominates the horizon
looks like a particularly wealthy city/area
familiar, everyday scenery
area filled with people - mostly dressed in work clothing
lighting
moody but light
high key lighting
colours adjusted in editing
heavy depressing
lighting doesn't have a huge impact on the shot
3 point lighting, looks natural but isn't- he has no shadows on him
dull and simple
figure expression and movement
positioned at the centre foreground of the shot
he is looking at the ground not up unlike everyone else
he is alone, isolated
his arms are crossed - looks closed and unwelcoming
body language says he is either angry or upset
actor looks tense and agitated - everyone else looks calm and happy
we can't see his eyes so we don't know his emotions - although he looks as through he is frowning
costume
dressed in a bold red coat
stands out against dullness of the buildings and everyone elses costumes
his clothing says he is wealthy
unusual and makes him stand out
the coat tells the audience that he has a different personality
his outfit of reds distracts the audience form the rest of the drama
