the techniques of filming

there are many things to take into account when film and many techniques that can be used such as carmra,sound, editing and mise en scne.


mise en scne is whats on the screen what is the image you are trying to portray and this consists of five main factor

• costume,hair and make-up
• body language & facial expressions
• sound
• settings and props 
• positioning

you can minipulate these factors into giving a happy feel or a more sad tone or make it really fast passed or more slow burning but how do we get this theory of mise en scen to work.

we have to use skills such as camra techniques like knowing the various shots nd when to use them:

• long shot or establishing shot-where the camara is far away from the action normally at the begining of a thriller it is used for establishing the setting
• midshot- usually used to show people to a normal scale,can be used for seens of diologue or action
• close up-a oomed in shot at one specific thing or person to draw attention to it
• extreme close up-usually used on peoples faces to show more deeply there emotion
• panning shot-this is when the camara move from left to right or the other way on a fixed axis this is normally used from a far away distance as an establishing shot
• a tiltshot-this is the oposte to a panshot this is where the camara moves upwards and downwards on a fixed axis
• high angle shot-this is ued to mae the person on the screen seem vulnrable
• low angle shot-this is made to make the person on the sceen look powerfull and in control
