Mise en Scene
Essentially it is the information in front of the camera for the audience to help them to work out what is going on.
It's made up of 5 elements:
- Costume and makeup
- Setting and props
- Lighting and colour
- Facial expressions and body language
- Positioning of characters/ objects within the frame
Types of Lighting
- Low key lighting - created by using the key and back lights. It produces a sharp contrast of light and dark areas. Deep, distinct shadows/ silhouettes formed. E.g Horror
- High key lighting - More filler lights are used. Lighting is natural and realistic to our eyes. Produces brightly lit sets or a sunny day. E.g Rom-com
