First 15 minutes of a similar film
15 minutes of a similar film
Inception is also an Action |Thriller which is also the genre our film will be based on. The storyline is of a man called Cobb who goes into peoples dreams and extract hidden information from them without them knowing.
Mise-en-scene
The clip has many different types of shots, this picture is of a close up of the main characters face. This picture is good for a first shot because it instantly introduces us to the main character straight of the bat.
The director Christopher Nolan uses an establishing shot to get a good understanding of where the film or this scene will be which as constructed dream world.
sound and music
The non dietetic music within the first 15 minutes is very pulsing and loud to engage the viewer in the film, and is fitting with the genre. The dietetic sound of crashing waves is key to the location witch is a huge unknown beach in a dream world.
Editing
The editing pace is very slow in the begging then speeds up as the action starts to unfold to build up enigma. Jump cuts between the spinning top and Cobbs face show the importance of the object and how it is key to the narrative.

Mise-en-scene:
Settings & props - setting is in a city with high rises and skyscrapers showing location and suggesting job title. guns foreshadow violence and action, also suggest type of person and job role. wine on the table suggests formality of the meeting
with falling sand and bricks this creates a representation of destruction and a collapsing building - in this case it is a collapsing dream.
Costume, hair & Make Up - suits represent formality, suggest time period and job application. hair is formal to match suits and the same suit justification. cuts on face suggest trauma and fighting. black leather gloves suggest the character has something to hide.
Facial Expressions & Body Lang. -boss face is sad looking which makes him look tired and suggests age. curious face suggest suspicion to the plot. fast movements suggests concern.
Lighting and Colour -bright light showing hot beach location, also colour contrast shows this. yellow colour in meeting room creates a mellow mood and a sense of warmth. colour of yellow wall lights in place where character shouldn't be have connotations of danger.

shot reverse shots are used to represent conversation and show continuity.
explosions and explosion sounds are added in to create more tension and make the scene s dramatic.
