The tone of a movie can be manipulated in many ways. For example, the performance style can greatly affect our reaction to a certain scene. In Yi Zhuosha Wu Shi's "Heavenly Questions", the tone is objective and realistic. All non-professional actors are used to make the performance style very realistic. They do not exaggerate emotional expansion to enhance the drama.
Genre can also help set the tone of the movie.Epic movies are developed with a dignity greater than life style, such as ``Searcher'' or ``October.'' The best thrillers are usually tough, vicious and tough, such as "Double Compensation" and "Deadly Gambler", the tone of the comedy is frivolous, fun and even stupid.
The narration outside the painting can also help set the tone of the movie, and produce another counterpoint with the objective watching of the drama.For example, the narration can be ironic, such as Sunset Boulevard or sympathetic, such as Dancing with Wolves. , Or even panic, such as "Taxi Driver"; or big Confucianism, such as "A Clockwork Orange" is narrated by a defunct.
Music is the most commonly used to set the tone of a movie. It is all rock music, or Mozart or Ray Charles' jazz soundtrack. The atmosphere is completely different. In Spike Lee's "Jungle Fever", the Italian-American drama Frank Sinatra’s singing and African American drama use gospel songs and soul music.
