A young man named Edward, with scissors for hands, has finally come out of hiding from a very mysterious castle, after a lady named Peg stumbled across Edward while selling make-up. To express this story of love and heart ache, the genre of fairy tale is used to greatly project this.

Tim Burton express this genre of fairy tale with the scene where the inventors factory is being displayed, while cookies are being made. In this scene the factory helps show the genre of fairy tale because it displays how magical and enchanting the world of Edward Scissorhands is. Another important scene demonstrating the  genre of fairy tale is when Peg decides to sell make-up to Edward. She stumbles across his enchanting castle and starts to wonder through it. This scene has a very important role of displaying the genre of fairy tale because it is at the start of the film and it is introducing us to the genre. This scene of the castle shows the genre of fairy tale because you are getting a tour this weird and wonderful place, thus displaying that one of the genres of the film is fairy tale.

In the end, the genre of fairy tale is crucial in telling the story of Edward Scissorhands. WWithout the genre of fairy tale, the film would be plain and would lack any emotion.]]> 2016-11-02 03:17:08 UTC https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/134667911 Two Aspects of Film Techniques jorhood https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/134667941 Two film techniques that help show the genre of fairy tale are mise-en-scene and the sound.

Mise-en-scene helps convey the genre of fairy tale in the film Edward Scissorhands because the costumes and make-up have a very imaginary tone to them, this helps convey the genre of fairy tale. Without the Mise-en-scene the genre of fairy wouldn't come across as easily and you might mistake the film as just another story.

The soundtrack helps convey the genre of fairy tale. One song in particular is, "The Castle on the Hill". This song helps convey the genre of fairy tale because it sounds very enchanted and mysterious, giving the feeling of a fairy tale.

Fairy tale is a very common genre in most films. Frozen is an example of another fairy tale. I chose frozen as a connection to the genre of fairy tale because Frozen is actually based on a fairy tale called "The Snow Queen" by Hans Christian Andersen. I also chose the film Shrek as a connection to the genre of fairy tale. Shrek contains many unrealistic but magical creatures such as an ogre, therefore making Shrek a fairy tale.]]> 2016-11-02 03:18:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/134668023 jorhood https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/135282324 This scene of the Professor's factory helps demonstrate the  genre of fairy tale because it shows how the factory is very mysterious and magical place.   ]]> 2016-11-04 03:48:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/135282324 jorhood https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/135955156 This photo of Edward's Castle helps display the genre of fairy tale because it shows that this film contains a mystical castle, which is an important quality in fairy tales. ]]> 2016-11-07 22:05:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/135955156 jorhood https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/136336304 Edward Scissorhands himself, helps to display the genre of fairy tale because he has a very imaginary appearance, making the film more like a fairy tale. ]]> 2016-11-09 10:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/136336304 Word count jorhood https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/136337503 552]]> 2016-11-09 10:21:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/136337503 Jordan Pfeffer jorhood https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/136341766 8B2]]> 2016-11-09 10:41:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jorhood/edward/wish/136341766
