Setting is the time and place in which a story is told. The key characteristics of a film is Mise en Scene, cinematography, editing, sound and performance. The predominant characteristic is   Mise en Scene. Mise en Scene happens long before cameras start rolling and is something some directors don’t  realize their doing. All of them are significant, but to me the least significant is none. I say this because, in order to have an amazing movie, your movie should meet all the standards of the characteristics of film. Setting is important to Mise en Scene elments to recreate a real location or to give wings to a director's imagination and create a fantasy land.

The media product that I am creating is a PowerPoint. The media product I analyzed was a Video Recording. The plot of the scene goes from calm straight to shock and problematic, to calm and back, until the father runs somebody over then the plot skyrockets to suspense because they don’t know if they killed or badly injured the man. I then gradually comes down to calm again as man reassures them that somehow hitting him was no problem. This can be connoted as a huge problem. The audience can say this based off of the characters in the car’s reaction to them hitting the man. Also, the tone of the man and woman when they approached the man to see if he was ok was kind of shaky and on edge. 

In this assignment I created a PowerPoint Slide. The directions of this assignment was to show that you understood the assignment by applying the contents to the PowerPoint You should’ve created. I learned how to analyze setting. I worked on this assignment by myself and my tools to success was staying focused.
