Does not include overarching [[Signature Style]] elements of a body of work, or ''explicit'' [[Iconic Logo]] trademarks, such as [[Alfred Hitchcock]]'s silhouette or Walt Disney's signature. We need to differentiate mise-en-scene from cinematography. Is this trope for one, the other, or both? Mise-en-scene is WHAT is shown on screen, while cinematography is HOW it's shown on screen. So Michael Bay's preference for helicopters at sunset is more "signature mise-en-scene" while some walk the line- Tarantino's close-ups on feet are sort of signature mise-en-scene (feet) and sort of signature cinematography (the close-up). We're looking for that cinematography- that particular use of the camera, its focus and placement. |
