many heroes and villains which is not easy to
manage by one production group since it has
different characters with different intentions

field and a car driving on it. With in the car 3 mashed men are shown and a few
body guards escorting them this is meant to build up audience curiosity about the

them think about who the masked men may be, the plains door opens and the
masked man is placed on the edge the CIA officer scares him to take out
information which the mask man doesn't answer which leads the CIA officer to go
for the next masked man an as soon as the officer starts to question the second
man the third man starts to speak about fear this is made to make the audience
feel like the masked men are highly pain gun men who are loyal to their
employer, but strait after the third mans mask is taken off and the man claimed to
be a highly wanted man telling everyone on the plain that no one will survive
aside from him, this is meant to make the audience feel like a scene is going to
come on and prepare them for the beginning of the movie as it is filled with

2. Mise-en-scene:
The mise-en-scene in this dilm is very unusual, the movie is based on a man who
dresses up as a bat and protects a city called gotham. The film is an action
movie and has a lot of props such as the batmobile, bat cave, many bat based
weapons and many other equipment which the super hero uses whiles in action.

The editing in the movie is very realistic, We see a lot of special effects and cgi
like buildings exploding and the crazy explosions. This is all done to keep
audience engaged and anxious to find out what might happen next. Also the
production company is warner brothers, this is done to brand the film and allow
audience to have some kind of trust in the movie as they will be able come to a
conclusion that this is a trustable well known production company.
Sound:
The sound effects in this movie play a big roll as we said before the editors have
put in countless hours to create special effects and cgi but it is also accompanied
by very precise sound effect which automatically engages the audience, by using
sound effects the editors could raise the volume of an explosion to make it seem
important or the could dim the sound of the explosion to make it seem like its far
away from the batman.
Cinematography:
The filming of this movie is very intense and that is very important as the use
different types of shots to portray different scenes and actions with in the movie,
the movie starts with a close up of two men talking then goes to a long shot of
an airplane flighting, this is done to allow audience to understand the
surrounding.

In the opening scene of the fill you view a child
holding a action figure possible his idol outside
a window while he's being driven to his fathers
news firm, by doing this the producers bring
back memories for the audience from when they
where children because every child wanted to
be a super hero at one point. Upon arrival the
child is accompanied to his fathers office just for
it to be revealed that the child has been sent
home from a school fight (this is another way of
showing that children always want to be some
kind of super hero), the child get yelled at and given lecture by his father about
fighting. The next shot shows that the story now takes place 20 years later and
starts off with a criminal meeting. By using such shots as the first shot the
producers can make the audience interact with the characters with in the movie
scene, its know that every young boy or girl wanted to be like their idol which
could possible be a super hero which helps us understand that the movie is
aimed at a older age group possibly ranging from 16 till around 35 this is due to
the first few shots. The movie comes out as a action movie which sets the genre
and help the audience understand how the movie is going to be just by watching
the first 3-4 min.
Mise-en-scene:
The mise-en-scene for this movie is mostly realistic but they do have a few
pieces of props that might have been exaggerated and some explosions as well.
The film is based on 2 characters one has super powers and the other is an
ordinary man but they build equipment themselves and the have created a car
that is practically indestructible, the car has bullet proof glass, bullet proof tiers,

4. ejectable guns and ejectable seats. By doing this the producer intertains the
audience and allows them to understand the power of the super heroes. The
suits are a significant prop as they allow the audience to understand immediately
that this is a super hero movie. The urban setting is typical of the genre it
encourages the audience to anticipate that they will see destruction and they are
also able to see the people that it effects.

production companies. The editors also have used different special effects to
enhance audience entertainment and help them engage with the film, this is done
by adding a lot of special effects like building and cars blowing up the elements

hornets car was shown upside down in a sand pit while being buried and yet they
manage to escape by using ejector seats, this is done by the editing team and
creates suspense among the audience and leads them to question wether the
heroes are gonna survive or not.
Sound:
Sound plays a important roll in The Green Hornet as it allows audience to interact
and feel as if they are in the scene, Sound effects within the movie create
meaning to the scenes like when the green hornet crashed his car into a drug lab
the car crash sound was really loud making the audience feel like they just
crashed a car (it makes the movie more real). It is also used in the start when the
villain enters a night club and leaves a bag which explodes when he exits, the
scene starts off quiet allowing the audience to have a calm mind set then it goes
to him shooting people which the have raised the volume of the gun shots to
make it more interesting and engaging for audience, then he exits the building
and in the back round he see a hug explosion and the sound of it was also raised
to increase audience awareness.

the movie as they would want to learn and watch how this person “The Wolf Of
Wall Street” made all this wealth. What makes this opening sequence so
intruding is the shots with in it come from through out the movie which is a kind of
teaser for the audience to stay attached and what makes this really special is that
