come over and she cooks for him. She agrees and allows him to come over for dinner not knowing his motive for doing so. In this scene (53:31-57:46) she is taken advantage of and raped by this man. During this scene, there is continuity editing, as two shot are being combined to make this one scene. While she is being raped the scene switches back and forth to Jo and her husband Carl at an opera show and both scenes end at the same time. There is also a point where the camera is on the clock as…

these shots, like in shots 41 and 51, the car is moving from frame left to right each time. Without a sense of continuity of direction, the viewer would not know where the car was headed, and if it was making any progress. By showing the repetition of the car heading from left to right, we get a sense that we are getting closer to the goal, which will eventually be on the right side of the frame.

settings to capture the diverse range of images instantaneously. Active viewing was something, I thought I did, but it wasn’t until I took a step back and saw the variety of shots and how each one of them is put together that I realized that there is more then one way to watch a movie. The different ways that a film is shot and how the scene is constructed are ways directors convey meaning to the audience. Film language and mise-en-scene are greatly present during the film Edge of Tomorrow. The…

two men are challenging gravity while figthing most of the shot (1:58 – 2:12) have to be long in order to emphasis how the background and charcters are spinning and the effects are, for example from 1:12 to 1;14 you can see the long shot of the two men fighting but the thing that seems to be quite insignificant is the gun that dropped also react to the shift in gravity and sticks to the ceiling, the attention to detain from Nolan in this shot make me as a viewer amazed that something so small…

she studies how technology changes the law, criminal justice, and systems of American punishment and the effects it has on society. “I have studied the growth of what I call digital punishment by interviewing those who run criminal history and mug shot websites, by analyzing the content they produce, and by interviewing those working to clear their own criminal records through legal means even against the reality of an endless digital trail”. Sarah explains that…
