To be able to shoot any film you would need costume design, props, and even a good filming location. The mise-en-scene of a film is what gives the film its essence, to feel like you could even possibly be inside of the scene. Think of any of your favorite movies, they all have these elements in different ways. Let's make up a scenario. We have a woman in a tower. She's wearing a corset and puts on a fancy dress over it. She has her ladies fix up her hair and dress her. Her accessories include necklaces, rings, a crown, and fancy shoes. Her location is a castle overlooking a town where her father makes decisions for. When she and her ladies leave her room they enter a hall with the ceilings rally tall, huge portraits on the walls and they walk on red carpeting. Can you guess what this character is? The answer will be at the bottom of this post so you have time to guess!
For my film opening, the mise-en-scene needs to be appropriate for the plot. The costumes would be casual, to make it seem like it could be in everyday life. The costumes would include shorts, pants, and/or skirts, t-shirts, or even crop tops. It would be in a school, so background characters would need to have proper accessories. These would be backpacks, close-toed shoes (sneakers), bracelets, a necklace, a book in hand, even a hoodie. My film opening is at a school and all of my cast and crew are students, so they would just need to wear something they usually would for school.
