Aviator- Mise En Scene (need to edit)
During the first scene of aviator, the contrast levels set the scene. The high contrast of the scene sets time of the day being mid-day because of the sun at the top of the sky and the heavy shadows coming off the people and objects around the area. The set uses simple colours ( dirty/ earthy colours) and having desert mountains and and farming in the background. The setting was at an airfield which was very spacious, although the area inside the plane was quite cramped as it was a trial plane that the controllers were put anywhere they could be and weren't very organized. The moods of this scene were intense, exiting and just waiting for something else to happen. In this scene it would be common for planes to be landing and taking off and landing in this area as it is an airstrip. In this scene the characters visible are mechanics, pilots and aircraft judges. The main characters personality shows to be adventurous and risk taking and that he is dedicated and determined for his flying. The shots that are used in this filming sequence are low shots which show that it is cramped in the plane, long shots on the plane which show the speed it is traveling, tight close ups and high angles over the pilot.

the ledged of sleep hollow film analysis
EDITING:
This film has a very good beat to the music which give it a scary and suspicious rhythm and filming to the acting that is occurring. the graphic relationships in the beginning of the film uses a lot of quick cuts to the next image where he is quickly in a different position. The film also uses jump cuts which shorten the events, for example when they are riding the horses through the Forrest and they cut straight to the little boy in the house lighting the candles.
SOUND:
The music and the sound of the beginning of the film gives a very unknown feel and not knowing what is going to happen. The music and the sound effects at the point in the film when he is cutting away at the tree creates a lot of fear and suspense and not knowing what to expect next. The music also climaxes at the same point that the scene/scenario climaxes and the music builds anticipation and both the music and acting are both in sync with the beat of the music. The dialogue is very limited at this point in the film which also adds to the suspense of the scene. there are only a few lines of dialogue as the focus of the scene is tho find out what is going to be in the tree and what the human like blood is from.

Mise en scene-
The acting in this particular scene of the movie was showing the Johnny Dep is playing a very weak, serious but also funny character and is juxtaposed against the humour of the blood being flicked onto his face. The two older children with Johnny Dep are playing scared, shocked and helpless children. This is deliberate acting, as the director would have wanted them to look innocent and venerable. The acting of the family in their home because they are a close happy, loving family but is also unprepared and innocent. The horse men appears to be a very powerful and magical character that is on a rampage.
The props that are used in this scene are the heads in the tree, the forest, a sword, skeleton and the lantern.
The setting of the scene is the tree, the forest, the house and the village. Part of the set is also the fog and the lighting effects ( a dull gray light), the lighting effects also had different tinges of colour like blue yellow and other warmer colours.
