In the first paragraph identify the film selected and an
introduction to what will be discussed in the rest of the paper.
Assume that the reader has not seen the film, and this is their
first introduction to it. What could you say about it in one or
two brief sentences that would give some basic understanding of
it?
Begin the second paragraph with a general discussion of the
mise en scene as it applies to the entire film. This is an
introduction to the applications. No terminology other than mise
en scene needs to be applied at this point. But it needs to be
applied to this specific film. How does it enhance this particular
film? Choose three scenes from the film (ones that are not used
in the rest of the paper) that are both significant to the film and

5. feature an aspect of the mise en scene (sets/locations, costumes,
properties, make-up, lighting) that clearly reinforces that scene
and its importance. Each term should be applied within a
different scene. Choose scenes that have importance within the
film, as it will make applying the term and discussing the
effectiveness of that application easier and more meaningful.
Begin the third paragraph with a general discussion of the
cinematography as it applies to the entire film. This is an
introduction to the applications. No terminology other than
cinematography needs to be applied at this point. But, it needs
to be applied to this specific film. How does it enhance this
particular film? Choose four different scenes from the film
(ones that are not used in the rest of the paper) that are both
significant to the film and feature an aspect of the
cinematography (close-up, medium shot, long shot, establishing
shot, follow shot, high angle shot, low angle shot, subjective
point of view, objective point of view, etcetera) that clearly
reinforces that scene and its importance. Each term should be
applied within a different scene. Choose scenes that have
importance within the film, as it will make applying the term
and discussing the effectiveness of that application easier and
more meaningful.
Begin the fourth paragraph with a general discussion of the
editing as it applies to the entire film. This is an introduction to
the applications. No terminology other than editing needs to be
applied at this point. But it needs to be applied to this specific
film. How does it enhance this particular film? Choose three
different scenes from the film (ones that are not used in the rest
of the paper) that are both significant to the film and feature an
aspect of editing (transitions such as direct cuts, wipes, fades,
and dissolves, as well as lengths of cuts, montages, etc.) that
clearly reinforces that scene and its importance. Each term
should be applied within a different scene. Choose scenes that
have importance within the film, as it will make applying the
term and discussing the effectiveness of that application easier
and more meaningful.

6. Begin the fifth paragraph with a general discussion of
continuity as it applies to the entire film. Use the term
continuity in this introduction. In order for continuity to be
established repetition needs to be identified. Two examples of
continuity are required. For each example identify at least two
scenes (ones that are not used in the rest of the paper) that
create the repetition of that idea. The examples can be from the
mise en scene, cinematography, editing, music, or even the plot.
However, terminology must be utilized when making the
applications. Remember that you will need two scenes for each
example - four scenes in all.
In the final paragraph provide a brief conclusion. This should be
a brief conclusion to the paper. Wrap up what you have been
discussing clearly. Two sentences should be enough. (part 10 of
the above rubric)
Present the assignment in paragraph form with proper spelling,
grammar and sentence construction.
Examples:
Bad:
The scene was shot with a subjective point of view.
Bad:
The scene was shot with a subjective point of view which made
us feel as we were seeing things through Steve's eyes.
Good:
The scene was shot with a subjective point of view letting us
feel the emotions that Steve had as he watched his best friend
taking his last breath.
