Mise En Scene: Gossip Girl

October 25 2019 Quarter two week one Mise En Scene: Gossip Girl I am currently watching Gossip Girl, so I decided to do this week's assignment while watching and episode, because as I watch this show frequently, I think it would be interesting to study the show. The episode used is Season 2 Episode 10: Bonfire of the Vanity The episode begins in Brooklyn, New York. The setting is casual, located inside of one of the main character's, Dan Humphrey's apartment.

September 27 2019 Quarter one week seven Master Edits in Different Film Clips 1. Parallelism in Forrest Gump T his scene in Forrest Gump shows parallelism because in his flashback, a very similar scene of a younger version of himself.  2. Leitmotif in Frozen 2 This short clip shows the leitmotif in the Frozen Two. As the shots of the title and then the sisters with the trolls appear, the song "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" Starts playing in the background, which is a nod to the first frozen movie. 3. Simultaneity in Frozen This clip of frozen was a scene where both sisters are singing "For The First Time in Forever." This is Simultaneity because the event is happening at the same time. Both are singing at the same time, but in different locations in the kingdom. 4. Contrast in Moana This video of Moana restoring Te Fiti's heart shows the contrast because Te Fiti transitions from lava and volcanic rock to green and lus...
