Slumdog Millionaire

For the clip you have chosen, list and analyze all the shots individually for the following elements. (You can write in bullet points; you do not need to write in full sentences.)

• Shot # (start with #1;it doesn’t matter what shot it is within the whole film)
• Time of beginning to end of each shot – for example:0:10 – 0:19
• Type of shot – for example: close up
• Camera Angle – for example:eye-level shot
• Camera Movement – for example:pan to left
• Action in the Shot – for example:Eleanor sits, looks at note
• Additional Mise-en-Scene:notes about composition of the shot, setting, props, lighting, costumes, make-up – for example:Eleanor in center of frame, small office with desk with papers strewn on it, motivational posters on wall,harsh high contrast lighting from ceiling, El in jeans, t-shirt & sneakers, hair in pony tail, bright red lipstick
• Sound:voice, music, sound effects, ambiance (natural sound), silence – for example:man’s voice off screen, clock ticking, piano music underscore

NOTE: You do not have to repeat information if it stays the same.For example, if an actor is wearing a top hat in shot #1, and he keeps it on throughout the whole clip, you do not have to repeat that he is wearing a top hat.

If there is a group of people, you do not have to break down the costumes for every individual, you can include a group description.

You can create a table (grid) to organize your information, or use a list format, or use some combination of both.Do not write an essay for this part of the assignment.
