Mise-en-scene

Mise-en-scene




The mise-en-scene is a French meaning term "in the scene or frame". The mise-en-scene have different types of things which indicate about it and they are:


  1. Setting and props 
  2. Costume, hair and make up
  3. Facial expressions and body language
  4. Lighting and colour
  5. Positioning of characters and objects in the frame


Colour first was used in films such as voyage a travers l'impossible by the pioneer George melies in 1904.

Denotation and Connotation

Denotation is the literal description of an idea, concept or object.

Connotation is what we associate with a particular idea, concept or object.

Different colours work on the subconscious mind to create mood.

I had watched an the being part of the movie called Casino Royal. So the mise-en-scene shows in Casino Royal is that we have two different sides of him. The first sign of him is that he is calm and not worried about anything and the other side of him is being aggressive and violent when he is fighting. Furthermore the first side of him shows that he is in control, as well as the other side of him because we see him kill one of the villain, plus they are in two different settings. The first setting is in a apartment or a office with the lighting dark and the second setting was in a disgusting public toilet as they are fighting. The positioning in the first side is that James Bond is not moving he is staying in the same position, however in the second side is that he has all different types of facial feature and being pro active.
