this film had the same formula as many of the other films I had already scene, Invasion of the body snatchers, and it takes elements of the invaders from mars, but with this there seems to be no happy ending. the film is also like the Edward scissor hands with everything so perfect. the robotic women remind me of Allison's blog post about the fake robotic women
Halloween was not as scary as I thought though jumpy, the camera scenes are brilliant for the angles and the perspective, this has given me allot of inspiration for my own scene. the murderer is always viewed as tall and always above everyone look down up on them.
It is this idea that has got me thinking
with Escher's work I like the way it turns a normal scene into an illusion
this idea was where it came to chalenging our perception of a dark Gothic house and changing it to a modern contemporary house in a creepy dark woods, this is a quick sketch with not much detail but its just voicing the idea of why does horror commit in a Gothic house when it can happen anywhere, PLUS we feel comfort in NEW fresh "contemporary" house so I'm just challenging this, why cant horror happen in a newly designed house??
this idea is a mixture of experiments and ideas rapped up into one, more inspired from films I have seen in the past few weeks. I like the idea of entrapment, where you feel trapped.
This is more towards the Idea, a nice modern house, but with manacles with in it, (after this, image; it locked me in the idea of manacles, so I decided to shoot some ideas out of my head into a page)
here I'm experimenting with changing and challenging the viewer, of looking at a scene through a refraction, again very quick and scruffy, they're just quick thoughts and very ruff ideas and while creating this I was taking my inspiration from Escher.

The shapes have been manipulated through using a pipe shape
Mayakul is really quite freaky, though his imagery is slightly inspiring, due to this this is just a simple girls face. but the use of colour he has made it cold, dark and sedistic. It's like he's taken the wormth and chucked it away by using whites and blcks, the face is as if it is looming out the darkness heading towards you. the face reminds me of that of the Unborn,
his buidings also like dark catheadral gothic like mantions that rise above you. Itis always the grandness of a place that hits us and scars us. the classic use of the gothic hounted manchion look always creeps us out, due there always being am unhomely expireance or feel about it.
Today I wasn't in to see Body Snatchers due to being chesty and a dammed cold.
BUT behold my day wasn't wasted.
I had decided to get a clearer image of what "mise-en-scene" is. Looking at my artists I feel that it is like capturing a scene with story attached to it, well like a room that places story with in it, or an out side scene captured with an atmosphere that makes us question the image taken. And many props are used to portray the story behind the image.
I was given the film by Allison body snatchers (so I have just watched the film) so today wile researching the word, using Wikipedia (in its external link) I came across this web video about "mise-en-scene".
I decided to grab some influence from the artist mention up on the brief
(the video does have music playing u may would like to turn your speakers down/off or mute the video)
