Mise-En-Scene

• Definition: The arrangement of scenery and stage properties in a scene and everything in the scenes (the props) has been put in there for a reason.

• For example one main part of Mise-en-scene in costume/make up which can be seen directly depending which state the character is in e.g messy hair indicating that the person had possibly been sleeping rough when actually the person could of just been in a rush. So this leaves the audience guessing otherwise.

• Also colours on characters clothes can identify the characters identity/background like the colour black mainly represents death and evil whereas the colour white on a characters costume symbolises good and innocence.
