Question:
What cinematic conventions are used to show a dream sequence is occuring?
Answers:
The dream sequence footage may be shot out of focus or with a hand held camera. As with the flashback, the sequence may be immediately preceeded by a transition such as a dissolve or a fade. Filters would likely be applied which transform the colour of the footage. The footage may be slowed down. The mise-en-scene may be arranged so that events appear surreal.
