evoked by each contrasts completely. Every film uses the stylistic system to structure a narrative that is based on a combination of the visual and audile rather than either in isolation. The four elements of the stylistic system are sound‚ cinematography‚ editing and mise-en-scene. Mise-en-scene can be further broken down into four different categories‚ namely setting‚ movement of figures‚ lighting and costume and make up.
