Today in class we worked in groups to discuss mise-en-scene. While discussing these different movie scenes we pointed out things like depth of field, character placement and screen density. We then continued to discuss these ideas as a class using a scene from Breaking Bad. The picture we viewed is attached below.
We went over how the colors he is wearing are also found in the desert surrounding him. This shows how even though he does not belong here, told by the fact that he is without pants, in some ways he does in fact belong. The lines are also very horizontal in this frame as seen by the sky and mountains. This class period helped to strengthen the students skill at pointing out these different elements of the film in order to develop a better understanding.
