Denotations & Connotations

Connotations & Denotations  In the advert, we can see a young boy sitting outside. He is wearing an old, faded blue shirt which shows he may not have many clothes. His facial expression is serious and sad, which immediately grabs attention. Behind him, there is a mud wall, suggesting the houses are made from natural, simple materials. The background is very bright, showing the hot sun and giving the sense of a dry climate. The advert also uses bold white text on the left side which is large and easy to read.

Mise En Scene

-
S t r a n g e r t h i n g s During the opening eight minutes of Stranger Things, the mise-en-scène, makeup, and costumes all combine to create an atmosphere that is both nostalgic and eerie. The opening nine minutes unfold in the Hawkins National Laboratory — a cold, dim room with metal walls, humming fluorescent lights, and rows of science gear that instantly set tension and foreboding. The low-key lighting and the narrow hallways here produce an air of claustrophobia and secrecy and foretell the peril to follow. When the show cuts away to the cozy, warmly lit suburban existence that follows, the contrast is reassuring — a reminder of normal life and childhood security.Props too make a tremendous difference. On set, control panels and alarms anchor the story in science fiction, and at the children's basement, Dungeons & Dragons game figures and walkie-talkies instantly recall the 1980s and adventure. Makeup is subtle and realistic: the scientists are faintly sweaty and taut, ...
