the tone is mostly set by the lighting and color of a movie. For example, a movie like "Scary Movie" is perfect in illustrating how these techniques work to maintain the tone. T characters were in high light with gave the movie a happy and comedic feel instead of a low light which would make the character look more dramatic and hard. The color is also a major part of setting the tone of a movie. The movie Seven used a yellow looking tint to create a dirty and gritty looking environment, with the color tint the mood was set and maintain throughout the movie.

A movie's tone is it's mood, whether it is happy or sad. Mood can be established through lighting, color value, and even the way it is edited. For example, slow cutting may add to a somber mood. It is also established through dialog, the music, and even the faces of the actors themselves. The movie "Lucky Number Slevin," uses tone to mock the values of its characters. The characters' values and objectives are serious, but the path there is made light with comedy. The bosses both speak drivel of old age, Slevin is brought to one of the bosses in only a towel, sarcastic wit by all characters, and their ridiculous manor of speaking give the movie a poetic feel. Instead of being a sad story of revenge, this movie, at least for the first part, has a comedic, happy go lucky mood to it, until the second part, where it assumes the mood of a sad revenge movie.

The tone of a movie is always the most important aspect of the movie. The opening scene of a movie should be the scene used to set the mood for the rest of the movie. One movie that i have seen that had a set mood throughout the whole movie was Smoking Aces. The movie started with a mission impossible/mystery/ action . the whole forced me as the viewer to figure out who is working for who and who needs to be killed. The speed of trhe movie stayed at an uptempo beat. Themood never fell from action-packed to dull.
