Mise en scene

Coursework: Pre-production - Mise-en-scene

Costume
The main character is presented as a detective in the show therefore, the costume will consist of a long coat, black long sleeve shirt. For the female actresses, the costume will consist of normal casual clothes. This links to my statement of intent as it corresponds to the role they are playing. It also makes it easier for the audience to guess what the genre is due to the clothes used. 

Lighting
For lighting, I would be using mostly low key lighting to portray the characters as intimidating and sinister. The lighting will be enhanced with the use of many flash lights. If some scenes are set in the dark, i would be using lampposts to reinforce the lighting that needs to be depicted in the scene. If some of the scenes are filmed indoor, lighting will be used from the sun or the room's lighting. Blinds are most likely to be shut when indoors to keep the scene confidential due to one of the scene being a psychiatric lab.


Actors
The main three characters that will be issued in the trailer will be 2 female character who play the role of Tayla and Mya Smirnoff. Finally, the last main character is a male called Jack Daniels who plays the role of the detective. Mya is only issued for a short time in the trailer as shes the character who  creates the disequilibrium due to her being kidnapped. Tayla is portrayed as the villain in the TV show therefore, there will be many closeups of her expressing her hatred.

Make-up
In the opening scene, i will be presenting someones 18 birthday, therefore, to make the scene seem more realistic, the female character must look appealing towards the audience to really portray a big moment of her life. 

Props
I will be using a bat in the opening scene. There will be a car chase therefore, cars will be involved in the trailer. 

Setting

The  first scene will be in school however, ill be using a room that looks like a living room to portray that home environment. This means that it will not be a school scene instead a home atmosphere filmed in school.

The second scene will be at a restaurant where the two main characters will be having a discussion about the case.

third scene will be at school in the drama studio creating a psychiatric lab

Fourth scene will be at hayes construction area where the main character gets a hold of where the suspects hideout area and eventually finds out where the victim was taken.

fifth scene will be in the toilets where the main antagonist is revealing her biggest lie

sixth scene will be located at ruislip lido where the river is. The main protagonist finally meets the antagonist who planned the whole kidnapping.
