Mise en scene
Location- we chose to do our production in a forest because forest are isolated places of land where hardly no one goes there and bad things are a bound to happen in the forest. Another location that we will use is going to be a garage because it will be secluded due to the reduced risk of anyone going into the garage.
Lighting- The main type of lighting we will use is low key lighting this is because it will fit in well with our location as our location will be in forest it's a dark place and dull. Also we will use high key lighting at the garage because all the lights will be surrounding the character which it will become a daze to the victim which it will make him vulnerable.
Iconography- One of our iconography will be a camera which will capture things beyond the characters belief as they do realise that severity of the situation that they in, will also use to confuse the audience .Another iconography we will use is ropes to tie the victim at the end scene, also we will use blood will represent the danger of the forest concealed by the trees and dirt that will be untouchable for a long time.
Body language&facial expression- At the start of our production the characters will appear relax and confident as they enter the forest knowing that they will be filming their thriller they will be all over the moon as their nearly come close to finishing of their task that's been given to them.They then become scared when of the mystery character appear from the bush and discovers the other characters everything changes as they this character appears. How they was laughing and then they got scared. The characters body language will be calm and relax at the beginning of our production as they are about to shot their media work and when one of a mysterious character appear towards the people within the group will feel uncomfortable and frightened as their find friend dead their facial expression will be confused and lost as they will not know whats happening to them. The mysterious character will have a strong body bod langauge to show that his confident and unfeated character, his facial expressin will be unclear at the start of the scene the it will appear evil at the end.
Costumes- we decided to the charcater will be wearing a causal wear, for example the nerd will be wearing a glasses and unfited trouser with a shirt to show that his a nerd, the female character will be wearing a wolly cream jumper to show that she's a female victim her hair will be tied back, she's not going to have a lot of make up on because we wanted to she her natural look for the audience to see that she's an attractive character. The mysterious chararcter will have a dark colours, he will; also wearing a hoodie black so that he won't reveal his identity to the audience and the characters in the forest.
A good start in planning the MES within your thriller opening.
