Task 2: Mise en scene/ Visual Composition

Posted on February 22nd, 2008 in Spiderman by baysidemedia

Visual Composition includes

  • everything within the frame,
  • the placement of the elements within the frame,
  • the use of foreground, background and ‘rule of thirds’.

These elements can be expressive or naturalistic. Analyse the visual composition of this shot. Begin by describing what is in the frame- foreground etc including set design, costume, props, colour, texture, framing and movement within the frame. Then discuss the meanings and messages intended by the director in creating this frame design.
