Umbra Hominis - Mise En Scene

-

This Pill Bottle helps to make the film more realistic because it looks like an actual pill bottle. This shot helps to contribute to the mise en scene of the movie because it is central so it will be clear that they have been used. The scene before this screenshot helps with this because it shows that the bottle is empty.
 All of the lights are on in this scene in order to show that the figure at the end of the corridor isn't real. Once again the focus is drawn to the centre of the shot, the scene after this is a close up of the villain ensuring that the character is seen.
 This over-the-shoulder shot of Tom watching a horror movie helps to reveal the tone of the film as something that is dark and serious. This is due to the visual effect of the film looking corrupted. Which was achieved by watching them on my laptop, due to them being in a format that it didn't like to play properly.

This will allow me to clearly show character development and a clear narrative beacause they will be from different points in the story, when the characters have experienced and are experiencing different things and don't know how to cope with them. The three extracts are: 1) Tom arrives home and opens up his medication. The bottle is now empty. He hides this from his parents, intending to get some more on his way home tomorrow. When they ask where is is and if he is OK he tells them that he's put it in his room because it's easier for him and that he just needs a good night's sleep. Tom then ...
