MISE-EN-SCENE
NAPOLEON DYNAMITE
Fabio Chiarizia
DENOTATION
โ€ข Location- Colorful background, bright colors featured throughout the
sequence.
โ€ข Body Language- Not much body language featured.
โ€ข Costume and Props- Colorful props used throughout, including food,
books, receipts and stationary items.
โ€ข Lighting- High key lighting throughout the entire sequence.
โ€ข Dรฉcor- Colorful carpets used in the sequence.
CONNOTATION
โ€ข Location- All the prepared food and carpets could lead us to believe that he doesn'tโ€™t go out very
much and typically enjoys staying at home. The vintage carpets look like they belong in the 1970โ€™s.
โ€ข Body Language- Not much body language featured.
โ€ข Costume and Props- Silly, dorky props give us an insight into the characters personality. Wallet and
contents gives the impression that the character is a nerd as it contains a โ€˜UFO Abduction Insuranceโ€™
card. His school ID shows us his picture, which shows us that he is the typical stereotype of a nerd.
He has a perm haircut and jam jar glasses. All the food is organized and neatly constructed, showing
OCD aspects of the characters personality, which further proves to us that he may be a nerd. The
ninja throwing star featured in the film shows that he may not have a large social life, along with the
fantasy drawings and boks he seems to appreciate highly. Is all creates the image of a character
being a typical nerd. Library books are featured in the opening credits, which leads us to believe our
character is an intelligent person.
โ€ข Lighting- High key lighting gives the impression of a fun, bright environment. It sets the stage for a
comedy film.
โ€ข Dรฉcor- Creative, quirky title credits involving food and other objects makes it seem like a light, fun,
friendly film for all ages.
