Pan's Labyrinth
  1. MISE-EN-SCENE
    1. PROPS- The Key. Ofelia's Book.The timer. The watch.
      1. They all play a significant part in the film. Examples -
        1. Key - represents the key, she gets from the Toad and the store room door key.
          1. The Watch- Vidal's father smashed his watch so he knew the exact moment he died, which in this film Vidal has a watch so passing on the trait.
        2. SETTING- There are two main settings within this film. One being the real world and the other being the fantasy world. Real world contains such areas like the forest, Vidal's house. Fantasy world contains areas like the tree, the labyrinth.
          1. COSTUME- Mercedes. She is represented with the costumes being, rugged, dull. She wears lots of brown.
            1. Ofelia. she has her nice green dress which was given to her by her mother. But normally she wear's and is dressed in earthy and dull dresses. Some of the clothes she wears are often similar to her mothers.
              1. Vidal. He wears his Captain's uniform, which as the film progresses it is a different colour, at the start it is blue, middle it is green and then at the end he is just in a top to show the struggles he has been through along the way.
              2. MAKEUP- Carmen wears makeup when she starts to get ill so this represents that she is still trying to live up to what Vidal wants her to be like even though she is ill as she is the lesser character and he is the dominant one.
                1. There also are other elements of makeup used, for example. When Vidal holds his dinner party, we see two upper-class women, wearing jewellery and posh clothing which also is combined with makeup to add to their appearance and the way we are shown them as being a different class to the other people in the scene, as an example comparing them to Carmen - the mother.
                2. STAGING- proxemics, Ofelia is always close to her mother than the army. She is mostly shown closer to the Faun than Captain Vidal too, this shows the relationships between them and how she prefers the fantasy world figure of the Faun to her stepfather.
                3. CINEMATOGRAPHY
                  1. Eye level matches for Ofelia. Showing her relationships with the characters, for example her and her mother Carmen are an eye level match, where as her and Vidal's representation through camera is from a high angle to show the different level of authority and that he is more dominant.
                    1. First time we meet Captain Vidal is shown by his watch which symbolises his father's watch wehm he died.This also suggests his punctilious personality.
                      1. Two shot= Carmen and ofelia to show the mother and daughter realtionship
                        1. We meet the Faun in the Labyrinth as a close up zooming out, we see him a lot in two shots with Ofelia.
                        2. SOUND
                          1. LEITMOTIF- There is a leitmotif in this film of the lullaby, this is with the character Ofelia which occurs when things happen to her. It is placed at the start of the film when we see ofelia dying and then at the end when she actually dies. Also at other moments like when her brother is born
                            1. NON DIEGETIC - Narration at the start, telling us about the parallel worlds,it is told in a fairy-tale style voice. This impacts the story by us being aware of the things that could occur in the film and by it being told in this style it gets us as the audience engaged.
                              1. The ‘fairy’ that is Ofelia's guide through the Labyrinth continuously sounds like the insect it originally appears as (its change in shape appears purely a way to reassure Ofelia after scaring her in the dark, for she already knows it’s true nature) and it makes mouse-like sounds when it communicates with the faun, while the faun itself has an overall sound built of the sound of lions and creaking wood beneath its ‘human’ voice.
                                1. Pale man scene - when the pale man is awakening, his hands, each finger at a time are tapped on the table, creating suspense and horror thrill to this scene as we know that he is
                                  1. The timer in the pale man scene also creates tension as the time is ticking meaning time is running out and so is presented as a close up and then we learn that ofelia will run out of time
                                  2. Sound is mostly created by objects in this film which effectively would show the different worlds.
                                  3. EDITING
                                    1. Conventional editing, cross dissolves to and from black showing the link between the real and fantasy world.
                                      1. Real world - is given a blue/green colour to also show the difference and the connotations are to show, cold and bitter environment and that its real by the green connoting the earth which represents the forest and is used in the clothes the real people wear.
                                        1. Fantasy world - is given a yellow and golden colour to show the difference between the two world and these colours would represent like heaven and the under world
