3. Mise-‐en-‐scene
con1nued:
(ligh+ng,
composi+on,
costume,
colour,
props,
actors)
The
three
people
joined
together
is
very
terrifying
as
it
looks
just
like
a
giant
Cen+pede
but
in
a
human
form,
which
is
very
controversial,
as
many
people
Wouldn’t
have
experience
this
sort
of
film.
The
human
cen+pede
looks
slightly
Like
a
holographic
image,
like
it’s
coming
closer
to
us,
it
is
trying
to
reach
out
to
Get
our
help
so
we
can
save
it,
because
no
one
else
can
save
them.
The
screen
Looks
extremely
grubby,
conveying
the
situa+on
of
infec+on
and
blood
poisoning,
Because
pooping
in
to
someone's
mouth
is
very
harmful
and
poisonous,
as
are
Exposed
wounds
to
fecal
ma;er,
causing
serious
illnesses.
There
is
a
vigne;e
Style
of
ligh+ng
around
the
edge
of
the
poster,
which
again,
is
poin+ng
us
to
the
Centre
of
the
image,
we
are
straight
away
pulled
in
to
focus
on
the
centre
because
Of
all
of
the
features
the
poster
possesses
to
do
with
centralisa+on.
We
could
also
Say
that
as
the
male
is
the
only
person
from
the
cen+pede
visible,
he
holds
power
over
the
two
American
Girls
as
they
aren’t
visible,
it
is
similar
to
the
‘to
be
heard
and
not
seen’
phrase.
Women
are
there
to
act
out
Their
role
for
men,
and
that’s
it.
Again,
poin+ng
to
the
theory
of
the
male
gaze.
Applying
theorists:
From
this
poster
we
could
apply
theories
like
the
male
gaze
(Mulvey)
As
the
image
is
male
dominated,
the
First
character
in
the
cen+pede
is
a
male,
he
holds
power
and
dominance
over
the
women
as
he
can
control
Where
they
go.
The
tagline
of
the
poster
also
conveys
male
dominance
bye
using
vocab
like
“his”
and
“fantasy”
men
like
to
act
out
their
fantasies
and
can
do
so
by
having
power
over
two
vulnerable
women.
We
also
apply
the
theory
of
Bathez,
the
enigma
code.
Because
the
image
is
so
distorted,
we
are
le[
Wondering
what
is
happening
behind
the
frosted
glass?
Why
is
there
blood
on
the
screen?
What
does
this
“human
cen+pede”
look
like?
Why
is
it
in
pain?
Where
are
the
hands
coming
from?
Etc.
Strauss’s
binary
opposites
are
clear
here
within
the
typography
of
the
+tle
of
the
movie.
Placing
human
and
Cen+pede
together
has
created
a
stark
contrast,
we
wouldn't’t
usually
see
the
two
together,
its
weird.
