Eden Lake

At the beginning of the film, there is peace and happiness, because the main character, in this case, the girl, is a teacher from young kids. And they are very cute, and that day is Friday, so it’s the starting of weekends and his boyfriend waits for her on his car with a wedding ring. So as this first part passes, everything goes good, and they start their driving up to a little town in the outs of the city. When they are in the motorway, it turns all darkness and night, and here comes the hard part from the opening.

Mise-En-Scene St Georges College

For the mise-en-scene task Carlos, Sabrina and I had to show though out a still or a series of shots how we felt about the school. The ideas of owr feelings when we see this image, as a symbol of knolegde and wisdom and also a very preety school.  The prep school, before we maked this shot, we were thinking of anything else, but when we saw this image, we thought "whyt dont we do this" because we thought it was very beautifull and simbolic. So we made a scheme of our shot , with all the nature around it. Our shot is a long shot, this is better for capting all the building and also is middle angle shot.  

Mise-en-scene of the "Last Emperor"

This is a shot of the "Last Emperor" which clearly shows a long shot of many elegant and formal soldiers. The colours here are showing better the situation, for example the sky`s colour is grey, but a no normal grey for the sky in this situation, it seems to be the last day in the world, in other words, day of judgement. Also we can see the emperor at the middle of the shot, with gold colour, and that shows clearly his importance in the film, because it calls the attention. The soldiers are with a perfectly symmetrical looking forward to the temple. This shot is showing so much, that makes all the audience feel weak and small compared with it. The soldiers show respect and admiration, to in this case: The Emperor.

Summary of editing:

The filmmaking is involved with the combination and selection of the shots into sequences. This is a unique art in the cinema where the editor make the effect for the viewer, that is so engaged to the story that doesn’t realizes about what has been changed. This is called the "invisible art".
The film editor must know how to tell a story, be politically savvy when working with directors and studio executives, and have a calm and confident demeanor. Millions of dollars of film and the responsibility of guiding the picture through post-production and into theaters rest in the editor's hands. Scenes may have been photographed poorly and performances might have been less than inspired, but a skilled and creative editor can assemble the film so that the audience will never see these imperfections.
The film editor, working with the director, shaped the scene into its final form. After hours and hours of reviewing the unedited film, he created this one-minute scene.
Cuts and Transitions: Assembling the Scene
Editors select sounds and images from all the film that has been shot and arrange them to make the movie. They also plan how one shot will best transition to the next. There are dozens of possible transitions the editor can choose, each of which will create a different feeling.

Editing often begins as soon as film has been shot. Early scenes are assembled for the producer and director to view. Occasionally, the actors will also view these early scenes.

The first cut of a film, called a "rough cut," takes up to three months to complete. The Sometimes the editor works alone, sometimes with the director. The sound designer and music composer join them for the final cut.
Today most editors use computers or nonlinear digital editing systems to compile a film. The editor arranges the work print, and then creates an edit decision list that will be passed on to the negative matcher.

Things that have to be considered in the world of editing:

·                         Edit and paginate News, Business and Local sections including and special sections.

·                        Create headlines, subheads and photo captions for local, national and syndicated stories.

·                        Preview and review concerts of local and national significance.

·                        Cover what don’t have to be seen.
