Mise en scene

We incorporated lots of the different elements of mise en scene in our film such as settings and props, we thought about this quite a lot, so for the setting of our film we thought about where in the school looks like a waiting room and we chose the geography meeting room because it had a desk and everything we needed for the film. We also thought about the props and we set up the desk with all the things that a receptionist would have.

For costume we thought about what Anna (the receptionist) should wear and decided that she should wear formal work clothes. We also had to keep an eye on the continuity of the film so whenever we had a lesson we had to make sure we wore the same clothes each time. We didn't really think about hair and make up that much apart from when we put water on Baz' hair to make it look like she had just come in from the rain.

We thought about the lighting quite a lot when it came to the waiting area because when we opened the blinds it was too sunny and didn't look like it was raining to we had to close the blinds so make it look like a dull day and so that the sun didn't shine in the cameras direction.

We thought a lot about the objects with the frame when it came to the waiting room. For instance, we set up the receptionists desk so that she had lots of business things on it such as folers and a laptop. we also thought very hard about the box that we got given and we made sure that the box was visible when we were filming the scenes in the office.
