Edge of tomorrow

The sound affects give a feeling of being in a battle field, with the explosions and dramatic sounds. These sounds of loud explosions and gun fire gave a general feeling of a chaotic battle. for example; when he lands off the plane onto the beach gave me the feeling of the epicness and destruction on whats about to happen. With the loud music (drums and base) mirrored  the progression of the battle taking place. The music  in the back ground gave the audience a feeling of an epic scene with a lot of action and mayhem...

The editing of edge of tomorrow is fast, apart from the beginning part when he is on the plane and he is trying to tell them that an explosions is about to happen. After the explosion happens the pace of the camera angles and the views you get dramatically increase as the battle begins. The fast past editing after the explosion could be mimicking on how fast the battle will take.  

Edge of tomorrow mise en scene is based in the UK, we know this from the establishing shot over the London air port. I Immediately got that the  theme is very industrialized with a strong military background. You know this straight away because you see men in military uniform  with futuristic  guns,also you see a lot of industrial building around the air port with heavy loaded transport also, this is because you would need a strong industry to support this war effort.This told us that this film is based in futuristic war/battle scenario could look like. 

Edge of tomorrow has many different types of camera angles, the first camera shot we seen in the clip was an establishing shot with a birds eye view over London airport (Heathrow). This immediately told the audience on where the film is set in (UK). It also used a shadow force angle when he was running towards a women and explosions in the background  happens this was  slightly blurred out so that you focus on him the key character. Also theirs a scene towards the beginning of the clip where he is about to jump out of the plane and you get a first person view of what he sees and you get an eagle view of the battle field bellow him, this gave me the feeling of actually being there with all the panic and mayhem inside the aircraft. theirs a tracking shot when Rita walks out of a crashed plane seeing will cage for the first time running straight towards here. this camera angle was really effective because it inspired a sense of awe.
