Tommy DAscoli 12/6/16

Today in class we distinguished between objectivity and subjectivity.  We looked at a picture of a scene from the movie the shining.   Using mis-en-scene we figured out why the picture looked so creepy and even made the viewer feel cold and quiet. I didn't realize at first that the TV had no antenna or plug to it.  I like how even though I didn't consciously see the absence of a plug or antenna,I noticed it subconsciously which made the picture seem creepy. We concluded that lighting in the picture makes it seem cold because of how blue it is.  After that we figured out that because of a wide shot angle it makes the room seem even bigger and emptier making it seem quiet. To finish off the class we were assigned a 500 word critical writing essay due Friday. We listened to our podcast and then began to work on the essay.
