short Journal

 Your Journal Prompt should include the following:  Use your own words to define deep space composition.  Using a stand-out moment in either Hero or Pan’s Labyrinth examine and analyze the use of Deep Space Composition (note: you may find it helpful to incorporate the “rule of thirds” in this analysis).  For both movies, one of the objectives for the filmmakers was to maintain verisimilitude (a convincing sense of truth).  In what ways does deep space composition help make the mise-en-scène (and cinematographic “look”) feel real, or verisimilar?  Use clear examples to support your analysis.
