Explain in one paragraph the mood and feelings the shot evokes by considering ALL the elements...

...talked in class.

This shot from ‘The Last Emperor’ movie manages  to convey a sense of majesty and power, of an exotic culture, but also hints at an end to this way of life. It does this by, for example, the costumes of the people (the characters; followers or soldiers), which are placed in perfect lines, provocating to the photo the feelings and emotions of a really very organized spatial relation where a special/ancient time atmosphere creates more sense of order. Symmetry takes presence. Also, about the colours at the image, it’s showned that they’re all dark due to the dull lightning. Yellowish, reddish and blackish are the ones used. The fact that the showing of the set (or setting; the grey sky background, stairs, floor, temple) is demonstrated by a far away type of angle (this kind of thing is defined as a simply “long shot”) from the place with its objects, makes the photograph ambient more cold, respectful, grand, dominated, royal, causing the audience to get a weak mood. All these visual effects mentioned before, produce the mis-en-scene (what’s put inside the film).
