Aspects of Mise en SceneDOUBLE TAKE
Settings/Props
Setting and location play an important part in trailer and film. They are not just the “backgrounds”.
Sets are either built or filmed in a real place Props are used in everything – this can be as small as a piece of paperHow does this relate to the trailer?1. In the trailer we plan to film in the bedroom of the protagonist, a busy
shopping centre, in a park and a coffee shop. We will need to do further research into setting and location to find out precisely which location/s we will be filming in.
2. Props are just as important. In some scenes we will need the characters phones – especially Riven as she will be playing music. Also a brush for her to sing into.
Costume, Hair and Makeup
Costume, hair and makeup play a major role in the trailer and film because they instantly indicate the personality of the characters. It also tells us whether the film is set in present time, future or past.
How does this relate to the trailer?1. During the trailer we will film parts where Riven is dressed as a “messy” teenage girl. She
will have her hair messy and unbrushed for the first part of the trailer. 2. She will have a makeover and after this, makeup will be done neatly and she will be
dressed eloquently. 3. She will be wearing a jumper and coat for the outside scenes – this will be due to the
weather (if it doesn’t fit correctly with what weather we would like). 4. Riven will also be wearing a bathrobe during the trailer when she is with her best friend
Clancy. 5. For most of the trailer Riven will have her hair down – straightened.
Costume, hair and makeup
How does this relate to the trailer?1. For the trailer Gray will have his hair mainly just
natural. 2. Gray may have his eyebrows filled in to make them
dark – rather than this he will not be wearing any makeup.
3. He will have jeans and a hoodie on for most of the scenes.
4. He will have a coat on if there is an issue with the weather.
Facial Expressions and Body Language Facial expressions indicate the way that a character is feeling If someone is smiling broadly then we assume that they are super happy.How does this relate to the trailer? 1. Most of the trailer will be happy and joyful as it is a romantic comedy 2. Facial expressions for Riven – mainly happy however one or two scenes
maybe upsetting.3. Facial expressions for Gray – mainly happy too because he’s in love with
Riven4. Body language for both characters will be natural, a kissing scene is the
only seductive type however most is clean and cut.
Lighting and colour:
Throughout the entire trailer we aim to film in high key lighting. This is because most romantic comedies are done in high key lighting and it’s important for this as it suggests the way that characters will be feeling and there is a pathetic fallacy created. This also makes audiences feel similar to the characters and there is a relatability of characters and audiences.
There will be bright colours within the trailer and we do not want any dull parts as it doesn’t create and make the audience feel comfortable and feel like it is a romantic comedy.
Positioning of characters in the frame:
During the trailer most of the shots will be medium close up’s, close up’s, long shots. Characters will be positioned centred as much as possible however there will be scenes where the characters are put to one side – this may be due to further emphasis on the location or something else in the frame.
Characters may be positioned somewhere unexpected because it will create a bigger effect if it is different. Riven will mainly be central because she is the central character of the trailer.
Positioning of characters is important because it shows the emphasis of certain characters more obvious and the relationship between the characters – whether they like each other or dislike each other.
