Half term homework: Sound & Star Wars!


 
As discussed today, sound terms we talked about: Diegetic and non-diegetic sound

Homework: To create a blog post explaining the difference between the two terms.

Then embed the new Star Wars trailer and explain examples of each type of sound. No one sentence homeworks - try to explain what effect that sound would have on the audience.

Mise en scene homework



Above you can check your notes on the 5 elements of mise-en-scene we have discussed in the last week.

Homework task

Find the official Scott Pilgrim Vs the World trailer online on YouTube and embed it in the same way you have done for last week's homework.



Screenshot three different images from the trailer and analyse the mise en scene - What information does it tell you about the scene? Or about the characters?

The more detail the better, as some people are trying to get away with one sentence answers! This has NOT gone unnoticed.
