Giannetti suggests that Charlies Chaplin’s tramp outfit was the most popular one. “The costume is an indication of both class and character, conveying the complex mixture of vanity and dash that makes Charlie so appealing” (Giannetti 314). Giannetti also suggests that his costume represents his view on humanity. “Vain, absurd, and finally, poignantly vulnerable” (Giannetti 314). Another interesting thing I learned was color symbolism…
Schlondorff’s The Legend of Rita used different movie techniques such as camera angles and scene settings, lighting/character placement to help portray what he wants, aspects of the rugged world happening in the time period through costumes/makeup and props, and the people who defected and fought to change the regime. Mise-en-scene aka “placing on stage”, in filmmaking moves our attention to the space of the shot itself. If a really long take is needed, planning is required to make sure that…
Throughout history, the public has been entertained by stories written and performed by artists visually. The creation of the moving picture gave an outlet to visual art performers to reach brand new audiences of enormous sizes. The cultural and artistic differences that influenced art prior to the film industry also made an imprint on films from around the Western world.

My costume was nothing special so I did a little twist, *Drumroll…

such an essential way is my love for dance. I began dancing when I was four or five years old. My mother never told why she put me in dance classes but I’ve been thankful ever since. My first memory of dance is the costumes. I remember as a child, completely in love with all the costumes, always playing dress up and throwing on music for little performances by myself. Dance was my first passion when I didn’t even know what that meant. Another memory was one my mother told me. On the day of my…
