    Hello,

    This is a clear account of the keywords use in class, as well as a write up of our discussions.

    For Development:
    Why do you think Mise en scène is important? How does this link to our previous lessons?

    Be careful with details – look at your satement about Watson’s phone – was it ‘cheap’?

    Thanks,

    Mr North
