Mise-en-scène is an expression used to describe the design aspects of a theatre of film production, which essentially means "visual theme". Mise-en-scène refers to everything that appears before the camera and its arrangement of actors, composition, costumes, props, sets, and lighting.
The elements of design help express vision by creating a sense of time and space, and mood. Mise-en-scène also includes composition, which includes the positioning and movement of actors. This also includes objects, in the shot.
The director and production manager work closely to get all of the aspects of the mise-en-scène a considerable amount of time before any filming begins. The production designer is responsible for the general of the film, leading departments that are in charge of sets, locations, props, and costumes etc.
To some, it refers to all elements of visual style. Both elements on the set and aspects of the camera.
This Blog primarily acts as a sort of reference for myself to refresh my knowledge over my studies at CCAD. Essentially it is a custom encyclopedia to help me learn and understand the information i need to progress. Some posts do contain sources from the internet, either partially or as a whole; these posts are just information that has peaked my interest while browsing.
