1. In this shot we can see it contains comedic value due to the setting and mixture
of mice-en-scene used. It is conventional for a comedy due to the situational
humor that has taken place for example this wide shot also shows the graveyard
background which suggests a funeral has taken place. The use of mice-en-scene
is effective in the scene such as the can prop combined with the setting the color
of the can also adds tot eh comedic value. This screen shot is very conventional
for the genre as it puts someone in the place of situational humor were a certain
character is being depicted as stupid and ridiculous.
The lighting in the scene is also very bright which adds to the upbeat mood of the
scene, which is also conventional for the genre to create an upbeat mood. Also
the fact the character is fairly fat adds to the comedic value as fat people are
sometimes at the center of humor and are usually the sidekick and less popular
characters. Such as in inbetweeners the character will is not fat but because of
his nerdy feature he is considered an outcast of the group and comes under jokes
of the other main characters. Also the fact that the character has a large beard,
which suggests he is off an older age, also creates a comedic effect.

situational humor and a strong use of mice-en-scene to add to the scene.

characters are wearing suits. However the wide shot shows the three characters
together both looking at the man crying which suggests they are a group which is
a common theme in comedies like in inbetweeners and project x all the
characters have their own friend group. The center character is using the most
conventional mice-en-scene wearing a casual t-shirt with the other characters in
suits it suggests they are more grown up. This screen shot also is another
example of situational humor as one of the characters is crying and people are
laughing at his misfortune. The lighting is slightly lower key, which suggests the
sadness of the scene, but because of the characters beard and age it creates the
effect of comedy because he is crying.

which adds to the comedic value of situational humor. The wide shot shows the
three characters all on the bottom of the rule of thirds which suggests they are in
danger and they are all tied up. The vast background also highlighted in the
scene connotes even more danger for the characters, which is funny but also
adds a sense of thrill to the scene. This is slightly unconventional for danger to
play a key part in a comedy film but in this screen shot we can see that it is being
used effectively and the fact they are in danger allows us to laugh at the
characters. The car prop also adds to the humor as they are tied down but will
not be able to reach the car.
This establishing shot and extreme long shot in this scene shows off the
stereotypical las vegas setting which is suggested with the comedy genre
because it is known for its party lifestyle. You can also see one of the characters
hanging from the side of the building holding on to a toilet roll.

4. In this screen shot we can see different elements of danger which create comedic
value and are stereotypical for the genre. The use of mice-en-scene if very
effective as the character is driving a fast car while holding a bottle of alcohol in
the air which is illegal. It is stereotypical for scenes to include crazy actions such
as this which make the film more thrilling for the audience. Also the fact there
are other cars on the road adds to the danger and his ripped costume connotes
recklessness and aggression. The wide shot helps to show all of the features in
this scene and is a common shot type throughout comedies as it highlights all of
the features and shows togetherness.

of the film is highlighted.

behind him which creates the sense of mayhem and danger. This is stereotypical
for a comedy genre to include a sense of danger but crafted in a way to create a
sense of comedy. The low angle shot helps to show the characters fear which
makes it easy to understand the scene.
