Mise-en-scene blog task

Image result for muhammad ali still image

 Muhammad Ali versus Cassius Clay: Firstly this is a image taken at a early stage of camera work as seen from the way the picture is taken it is in black and white. From the way the the fighters are placed it is very noticeable that Muhammad Ali has the grater advantage. Ali was well known for his fast reaction times in the ring. The facial expression on Ali's face signify's that he is not fond of being punched. From the photo it is clear that they are in a match of boxing this can be analysed by the clothing and also the gloves worn by both opponents. At a small glimpse you may notice the lime light is being pointed on Muhammad Ali's which could be a suggestion of popularity or could also be a code to imprint that "he is a the best ever"       






We Kill The Old way: From the trailer of this film i can first of all can that it has violence this because of the title contains the word kill which could be suggestion for violence through the whole film. Furthermore from the props used in the in the trailer could be a suggestion of gang violence but in addition to this from the title of the of film it could be a suggestion of new vs old. My meaning of new vs old meaning of old gangs versus new gangs this be seen by the costumes worn by new ear gang member's contrasting to the the older ones as the older generation wear tailored suits to not look harmful to the society as they do not mean any harm to the norm as they only harm the ones that harm them or their family and therefore in this instance they have a problem with a gang who harmed ones brother. Also form the taglines in the film trailer the splash of red could be a suggestion of British-Film-Noir this can also be notified by the lighting of the poster that it begins with its consists with lots of darkness which could signify Film Nior.
                                                                                                                                                           
8 Mile: A brutal scene form the film with the famous rapper no other than Eminem. Firstly from the actors clothing they do not have much money because of what they are wearing for example the sibling in the baby-blue jacket does fit her properly this could be suggesting that her clothes are donated. In the Scene there is not much lighting provided majority of the light is being provided is the gangs truck an larger amount is being provided by the darkness which means that it uses natural lighting. The actors in the first 10 seconds show that they are isolated to others and their own parents to look after them or to guide them on their ventures. As the big black arrived  into the yard it could be a suggestion of entering the mans territory but because they are more dominant in the situation they pay no attention to this as it has no meaning to them because they are big when they are together. However form the lonesome mans facial expression it is obvious he is terrified. The man with the nose bleed could be a suggestion of why they are in the yard in the first place and the make up used to make him apper to have a nose bleed could have been because the victims actions. As for the settings it shows that they are in poverty and dont have a stable roof over their head for the brother and sister who are alone. In addition to this we also see the victum give the little one instructions even-without sound it is seen as he knelt down to her level.   



Creed: From the charters attire the genre of the film is for sports but with a narrative to it this is because it is boxing dedicated film. As for the the lighting of the two characters differ for the black man its shows a dark but dimmed in the ring which could signify his hope for the fight but also his life in general as he could have had a hard life before he came into the light but for the well known fighter he has bright lights a well light area to train because he is all about the publicity. From the actors we can see that the mentor for the colored boxer which makes him more motivated to be better at his boxing match. as it is only hope for to become a champion. The sweat pouring of the main character is sings that he want to be the champion of the title therefore he fights harder therefore the make-up used in the scene was to make him sweat. Furthermore we can see that they use props such as boxing gloves to make the audience understand he is a boxer and he is fights for the title in addition to this the settings show all off the things that would signify boxing such as the settings of the gym contained boxing bags a boxing ring and also skipping and these are all props used in the setting of the gym to make it more appealing to the audience
