Preliminary Exercise 4: Analyzing Mise en scene

 Introduction

  In Today’s assignment, we’ve analyzed an opening to a scene and Analyzed its Mise en scene. The movie we’ve picked is called Gran Turismo. The movie was released on July 30, 2023 and directed by Neill Blomkamp. This movie is a Sports drama film dealing with the true story and history of car racing. In the opening of the film, it gives us an idea of what the movie is going to be about and how a man made a race car game simulator into an opportunity for many of those game players to become actual racers. The message behind the opening film was informational and inspiring and they used Mise en scene to present the seriousness and story of how this movie idea came about.

Reflection

This assignment was a group project and I was in charge of Section C. In section C, you had to pick and screen shot specific scenes that clearly represents an element in mise en scene and as you can see, I’ve caught multiple images for setting, costume, lighting, color, etc. Doing this assignment built my understanding of mise en scene even more by giving me an example and full description of what to expect and which scene to associate to which scene. I completed the work sheet on Word document and had fun making inferences about each clip.
