Sequence 2 Planning - The Fifth Element

• Directed by award winning Luc Besson
• Mise-en-scene most important element in the film
• Sterile 
• Warmer lighting and colouring of props to show the characters emotions of anger and frustration towards the scientists 
• Paranormal activity - super strength 
• Several close up shots on characters to exaggerate character expression 
• Tense mood - anticipating characters next actions 
• Blue/white - cold lighting 
• Long & Extreme long shots - see surrounding, make character look smaller (less powerful)
• Begins with a slow pace - builds
• When audio climaxes, shots start to be quicker - complements each other
• Fast camera movement when you are looking from the character's perspective, edited quickly to confuse the audience 
• Mainly over- exposed
• Under exposed in one shot to make the viewer anticipate what's about to happen :
