Mise-en-scene applied to our filming

We obviously will need to apply the conventions of misc-en-scene to our opening film these we have planned out and stated below:

Costumes:
we have put photos up on the blog of how we are going to dress our characters, with the antagonist wearing the typical outfit of all black (to make the character feel low-key and apparent that its the antagonist), the protagonist is going to wear formal wear (this shows they are just a normal person in a every day situation who's more busy and so time conscious) and lastly the victim in the film is wearing casual clothing (makes her look more vulnerable)

Sets:
The setting will hopefully be in the Grand Arcade for the beginning in the normal situation which ties in with that idea and then of course when the film introduces the antagonist it will be set in a empty room which we will enhance with minimize props in to make more scary; both of these settings tie in with the typical conventions of settings in a thriller film.

Lighting:
In the lift with the protagonist the lighting will be bright as its a normal situation and nothing bad has happened yet. However when the victim is tied up the lighting will change to dark to enhance to situation.

Make-up:
Make-up will be kept minimal and natural nothing dramatic will be added because both the antagonist is not trying to draw attention to herself but we may make it a bit more darker than usual to make it more clear of her role as the antagonist; both of the protagonists will have every day make-up on that they would normally wear to show that they are the normal innocent characters.

Props:
During our filming there are a few key props that we will be using firstly the two mobile phones which are what connects the protagonist with the antagonist; the chair, rope and masking tape which will all be used to keep the protagonist held hostage.
