Film language: Mise-en-scene

Mise-en-scene is a critical aspect to our work on film language.

Remember the mnemonic that will help you recall the different aspects of mise-en-scene: CLAMPS.

  • Costume
  • Lighting
  • Actor (placement and movement)
  • Make-up
  • Props
  • Setting


Mise-en-scene blog task

Complete the two tasks for mise-en-scene in the Film Language booklet:

1) Find a distinctive still image and write an analysis of the mise-en-scene. Use each of the aspects you've learned in the lesson.

2) Find three film extracts on YouTube from films of different genres (e.g. horror, sci-fi, costume drama). Embed them in your blogpost and write a comparison of the mise-en-scene in each.

You'll have a certain amount of lesson time for this but will need to complete the rest for homework - deadline set by your teacher (12D - Friday).
