Get A Date-Visual Concepts

In "Get A Date", there were a few visual concepts. The first was the introductions and the mise en scene that the director uses to show it. First off, there is the man. He is introduced while sitting in a drab looking room with nothing else in the frame except him, a couch, his cat and a small painting. It really helps to establish character. It also shows him holding a wrench and cat. Although the narrator tells you, showing it makes it all the more powerful. Secondly, there are the times that the woman knocks on the door, and the man doesn't hear because of something covering up the noise. Not only does this serve as a barrier preventing them from seeing each other, but it also serves as a visual concept. It is the "physical manifestation" of the fact that they may be doomed to live alone for the rest of their lives.
