Mise-en-scene

Mise-en-scene

Mise-en-scene is the arrangement of everything which appears in a frame including light, colour, props, decor and costume. 

The lighting can be either high-key or low-key, high-key highlighting beauty and facial features, low-key creating a dark mysterious affect with lots of shadowing which is often used in thrillers and horror movies.
The color can be in color or in black and white, black and white also creating a mysterious effect, and color can create vibrant happy scenes.
Costume can determine our first judgement of a character and can also tell us who the character is and what part they are going to play.



This is a picture of nature which is bright nd this creates a happy mood.

This is another image of nature but it is in dark colour and this creates a threatening, intimidating mood.
