Reflection of 'About a Girl'

After analysing about a girl and learning more about representiation within films, I find that I have gained more knowledge of how directors use certain thinsg such as camera/costume/characters, to represent certain things. Of course, it is up to the audience as to how they interpret the representation of a particualar thing, however, the director usually creates an atmospher using a mixture of mise en scene, camera, lighting, props, costume, character and dialogue to make the audineces mind up about what they are trying to say about the character/thing. I hope to interepret this understanding into my film to create a more professional feel the to film.
