Mission impossible Mise-en-scene

1. Mise-en-scene
BY DANIEL THRESHER

2. Positioning
This is a close up, which is slightly off centre which shows
curiosity for the viewer because you cant actually see what he’s
doing but only the expression on his face. Which links to the
action sub-genre of not knowing what's going to happen next,
and possibly a smash cut.

3. Lighting
 This arrangement of fill and backlight provides the scene with more enhanced
effects and as a result, is the most commonly used lighting scheme in typical
cinema. The light comes from the centre to provide the subject with a sense of
depth in the frame, but not dramatic enough to anything deeper than light
shadows behind the subject.

4. Props and setting
 Setting creates both a sense of place and a mood and it may also reflect a
character’s emotional state of mind. It can be entirely used within a studio either
as an authentic re-construction of reality or as a fiction but it may also be found
and filmed on-location

5. Expression
 The image still would suggest the genre or sub genre due to his expression
showing his concern look on the phone, possibly receiving bad news.

6. Acting
 An actor or actress’s performance can make or break a movie regardless of how
engaging the story is or how well the editing was done, It is the actor’s duty to
bring his or her character to life within the framework of the story.

7. Costume, hair and makeup
 Arguably the most easily noticeable aspect of mise-en-scene is costume. Costume
can include both makeup or wardrobe choices used to convey a character’s
personality or status, and to signify these differences between characters.
