Mise-En-Scene, 4 Minute Film School : Indy Mogul

[quicookie]

does anyone think that the music sounds like kefling?

[volunteerz]

Strange. I did a course in filmtheory but wasn't told and read at all that the apperances of the actors were part of mise en scène, just the settings.

[TheoHuxtable07]

"Don't call me dude."

[ryanvintage]

this wasn't four minutes... it was 5 minutes 50! ...I'm telling! 

[costa020]

fuck off adverts

[cool13q]

so um.... what exactly is a mis en scene?

[mrkurto]

@cool13q simply put, its using everything aside from the explicit (dialogue and physical acting) to convey the ideas/ feelings of a scene.

so adding to the scene with set design, props, editing, camera angles, wardrobe or anything else IN the composed shot.

hope that makes sense

[nameless12345]

lol hi i am a very attractive woman

[necrid86]

WHY DID THEY STOP THESE???

[TheOrangePoet]

@necrid86 They stopped 4 minute film school because they felt like it, and Steve went off to be a musician.

[wohs145]

Whats the song that it opens up with?

[nickolaz107]

thanks helped out a lot!!!

[iilovelife17]

dik head i wanted to use this in a a-level unit for ict and a swear word commonly coming from a yank cheers prik !!!

[ads1093]

its funny that sometimes they bleep douche but say asshole

[BudJillett]

Calling your audience names is not in the best of taste, nor in your best interest. Hope to not see anymore of that.

[TheAttackofthetree]

i judge you,***hole.

[kameshita]

3-iron is entirely mise-en-scene. they don't talk at all,,

[hillgly]

Its amazing how many tunes the use from Adam and Joe in indy mogul. 3:32 is a jingle from the show that ADAM AND JOE CREATED.

THEY OWN IT. But it worked for the scene, i just thought i would say what the music was.

(even though no one gives a roast potato

[awetik]

The first scene of "Andrey Rublov" by Tarkovsky is amazing.

[searat666]

Constantine, the guy in the back of the bowling alley with the bugs, everything about that was creepy and crawly, fantastic...

[tubed2247]

Alfred Hitchcock OR the shinning

[R3DRUMTV]

Alfred Hitchcock was a master of suspense achieved through mise-en-scène. AH the king

[searat666]

hehehehe......birds...heheh

[linalou]

id have to say the conformist is a very good use of mise en scene. and he barrowed and example from it with the hallway thing.

[dtwhitney]

My favorite example of mise en scene is in Star Wars (1977). It happens after an officer says, "Where are you taking this... thing."

"Cell block exchange THX 1138."

"I wasn't notified. I'll have to clarify it."

And then Luke and Han pull blasters while Chewbacca throws a guy. Luke and Han blow the hell out of everything in the room. The room is filled with smoke and damage. John Williams triumphant music intensely drives the scene!

[watson2078]

I'd say the best mise en scene in a movie has to be the opening shot of Once upon a time in the west, where the three cowboys are eyeing each other at the train station. That or the whole of Blade Runner...

[ChocolateMilkIsTight]

i like in trainspotting when mark locks himself in his room and the bed gets all huge and he starts sinking into the ground. Everything in that movie is really surreal and mise en scene though

[TinasAwesome2]

Definitely. That was a great scene.

[AgresticProductions]

One of my favorite uses of Mise-En-Scene is from Jim Jarmusch's Ghost Dog:Way of the Samurai. There's this great scene where the mafia are looking for Ghost Dog, a hitman. These Wiseguys are cruising around a corner in a Caddy, and leaning against the wall is Ghost Dog. They've never seen him before, so they don't recognize him, but the suspicion shown in the Wiseguys' gazes, and Ghost Dog's wary watchfulness, is terrific.

[necrid86]

Is Ghost Dog a good film? I've heard about it and read a little some on Jim Jarmusch but the movie was made on no budget.

[AgresticProductions]

I thought it was an excellent movie. It had a minimal cast, but the acting was great, and mise-en-scene was used very much throughout the film.

[necrid86]

Cool, I'll watch it!

[efgeesus]

Awesome film. one of my favourites.

[Overage2000]

LOL!!!

[CybernautZero]

Since Mise-En-Scene is Cinema studies Grand Undefined term, some definitions of Mise-En-Scene do not call sound an actual element of Mise-En-Scene, like the Bordwell and Thompson Definition for example. Which is what I have to use for my Mise En Scene analysis of a small part of War of the Worlds, the 2005 version.

[jmacevoy2001]

Children of Men has some great examples of Mese-En-Scene

[yofomojojo]

there's four mintues of film school, the rest is intro, and ads, so HA!

[gilkwad]

i dont here the ticking...

[onjoFilms]

Better late than never. :)

[davesteriscool]

Take 1:50 for the adds

[toasterofdoom]

For me the best example of Mise-en-scene comes from Children of Men. DISCUSS

[Andrewz05]

I love that movie!

[kyle44422]

[masterpiraka]

[kyle44422]

[benedicttucker]

i love these, its a nice break form the effects to have some gd plot devices explained :)

[timidgothica]

my drama teacher told me that gum was a very bad habit...

[funkywoman500]

loved this ep but any chance you guys can stop showing trailers in the middle - or at least change it to something else soon?

[SeeYouinHollywood]

...just a note...those commercials have to be aired because the are probably sponsoring the website and videos.

Most advertisers want their material aired at a certain time

[batneal]

et cetera

[DTMTroy]

pretty cool stuff please keep doing this every weekend and not indy film fests....pppllllleeeeeeaaassse­eee!!!!!

[onjoFilms]

I'll be glad when you make the video on how to use the dollie. Mine came in the mail yesterday, but there was no instructions. I figured out how to blow it up though.

[DTMTroy]

5 people got that joke i bet but ha ha that was hilarious as hell onjo lol i figured out how to blow it up...priceless

[onjoFilms]

lol

[250lespaul]

the comedian serious thing was already done

jim carry in the movie 23

it was amazing

[ieatnuggetswithafork]

Dane Cook in Anne Frank?! That's messed up.

[wolfgar45]

dane cook in anything is messed up.

[HolyMolyWhiteBoy]

as long as you will be covering dollies and the like. I have a suggestion for a much cheaper, more mobile "track". basically, rig your camera stand to the frame of a bike and have someone hoist the back end by the seat so it produces less ambient noise. this makes it very easy to make shots where you follow a moving actor outdoors.

[htmlbandit]

did he say diagetic or diarrhetic?

[irishdevil]

Good, but your definition fell short for me. What it basically boiled down to for me is what every filmmaker should know already, that frame composition, color, lighting, frame angle, and sound all come together to form the subtext of a film that isn't in the natural dialog. Maybe just frame composition alone could compromise several four minute film school clips.

Nice vid explanation none the less.

[acheronwalthers]

the third man. nearly the whole movie, but the sequence towards the end in the sewers is incredible.

-Adam

[RDJim]

lose the gum next time...

[obtree]

This 4 minute film school is almost 6 minutes long!

[jamedo]

think about the intro,advert, and voicemail before you make a comment like that

[mosescali]

my fave mise en scene is in 2001 a space oddyssey with the monkeys and the monolith and all that stuff

[ArcticKomodo]

Dane Cook isn't a comedian, he lacks funny.

[barelypolitical]

LOVE IT! Steve! Get some sleep!

[500YenDevin]

Damn, this came out the day after I had a quiz on Mise-en-Scene! In other news, Steve has some sweet shoes.

[Likethelegos]

thanks guys! this really helps!

[AutumnDevi]

sweet, can't wait for next week!

i agree with dking987, Stanley Kubrick has some of the best examples...like in ACO where Alex throws himself out of the window, Kubrick actually did take his camera, tie it to a tether, and throw it out of a second story window.

not that i have the mean$ to try that...

[simins2]

loveit

[quepasakoolj18]

Your camera is beautiful, what one is it?

[TacooGrill]

the drug deal scene in boogie nights.

[pantsm4ster]

Its nice, but to something from Hong Kong

Like Heroic Bloodsheds and Martial Art Films

[MapleKage]

thank you for the 4 minute films schools, these will help for sure, also idk what my fav scene with mise-en-scene is O.o

[dking987]

oh yea... and if u want really good mise en scene... watch any Stanley Kubrick film...

[dking987]

lol, what is the point of me going to college, everything i have learned at college since last september, has just been told to me in this video. lol

[chuchitochaves]
