Tyrion- Game of Thrones
Mise en scene:
The location during this clip looks as if it's in a main hall or church. Their are thrones at the front on the hall which are raised up on a stage. This shows their position in the society. Their are stain glass windows which demonstrates that it may be in a church. Stain glass windows also represent how important religion would be at the time.
Throughout this clip the characters wear old fashioned clothing due to the time that the series is set in. The characters look well dressed for the period of time that they are in, which demonstrates that they have a high position in society. The women are wearing long dresses and their hair is neatly done. The men are wearing royal looking suits with over the knee leather boots. Both men and women wear jewelry, for example necklaces and rings. This shows their position in society is higher up as they can afford and own jewelry.
The main source of lighting during this clip is candles and fire. This makes the scene very dark with a tint of red. This also links back to the time the series is set it. Their wouldn't be any electricity so they would have to make do with candles and any source of light that they could obtain.
Camera shots, angles, movement and composition:
Different camera angles are used throughout this clip, they are used for specific reasons. Mid-shots and mid-close ups are used during this scene to show the audience the characters characteristics, facial expressions and motives. A low shot is used when showing the men on the thrones. This would indicte that they are powerful and higher up in society than others. A high shot is then used to show Tyrion which indicates that he is less important and lower in society. This is link to the fact that he is a dwarf and that would e looked down on in that period of time- as well as any other disability. Towards the end of the clip, multiple zoom ins are used which shows the characters emotions and response to the action and converstaion that has happened.
Editing:
Cuts are a sudden change in one viewpoint to another. Cuts are used throughout the clip as the majority is converstaion, therefore there would be cuts to show other characters speaking or their response. Reaction shots are used during the clip to show different characters emotional response to what someody else has said. For example a reaction shot is used at 0:14 seconds to show Tyrion's reaction. A matched cut is used to continue to show one character speaking but from a different angle.
Sound:
music is used during this scene to create atmosphere and to increase tension. The music gets increasingly louder and clearer as the tension and action builds. Selective sound is used during the clip. In parts the characters watching can be heard but in others only the person speaking can be heard. This could depend of what the character is saying and how serious/important it is. Also the scilence of the crowd can build up the tension.
