The Descent Mise en sense

Kristina Olubaite

Girls entered the cave and then Juno said that they need to go down into the tunnel. So in this scene girls just came out from the tunnel and because it was dark, they took and threw out few bombs of light, so they can look around.

The light is red, meaning that in this movie we will see a lot of blood. Also red colour means danger and hatred. A lot of shadows and blurred views are hints that the danger is there and something is going to happen, which makes the audience feel a bit tense.

The actors, while looking around are amazed and laughing, they are enjoying views they see. They look very calm and have no clue about what’s going to happen. Even though Juno knows they have entered unmapped cave.

Also in this scene we see the actors as a very small figures in this wide and isolated place, from a great distance. The smallness of actors could be a hint that in this cave there are somebody who are bigger than girls, or the distance could be a meaning that someone is actually watching them and they are not alone in this place.
