WHAT IS FRAMING?
• How you arrange the stage of a performance and how specific actors are situated in the play• 3 ways to frame a scene• Close-up• foreground/background positioning• Height levels
CLOSE-UP
• Close view of an individual character• Used usually for
monologues or when characters are speaking to themselves
HEIGHT LEVELS
• The variation of who is standing or sitting and where characters are physically on the stage
EFFECTS OF FRAMING
• Not only does framing a scene help show where people should stand in a scene, but it also shows who is in power.• Can also show how important a piece of dialogue
is to the play.
STORYBOARD
• In groups of 3-4 decide which character holds the power in the exchange of dialogue, Cassius, Brutus, or Caesar.• Create a storyboard of the scene (1.2.30-224)
that shows who has the power through framing. • Should be 2 sided and have 4 drawings for each page• Stick figures are ok, just make sure to label characters• Indicate where in the text the frame would change by
writing line of dialogue below the frame.
