Phantom of the opera

Phantom of the Opera 

Phantom the opera is a film that is very highly regarded as a hit in the media industry with all its scenes and its soundtracks. in the blog i will be talking about phantom of the opera and i will look further into miss-en-scene of Phantom of the opera. Phantom of the opera starts of with a dark sequence and moves beyond to a lighter scene to the past, whereas it is much brighter in that scene.

The setting of Phantom of the opera begins at a dark scene in a theatre and it seams to be shown as a bidding is taking place and everyone is sad. the scene seems to have shown a place where a theatre of arts and drama is shown and looks to have once held a thousands of high class people that would of had seen the opera. Once the Chandlers go up the scene moves onto a bigger meaning and then portrays a visual image of the scene moving onto the past where there was more happiness and more joy into the theatre. The effect of the scene changing up has meant that the scene is more entertaining and more involving to the characters and engages the audience.

The characters are dressed ups as high-class people with their long dresses and suits portray that they are in the past and that they are high-class because of there involvement into the bidding. The sound begins with sad and unappealing music, but once the scene begins to show colour theres a spooky music which comes into the scene and lightens the audience.
