Production Blog: Mis-En-Scene

Now that I have gotten all of the research out of the way, it is time to start gathering material. The film has a action scent to it so props will be very crucial to use. Props give films a realistic image. Props are used to replace expensive or unrealistic items in a film. They are also just items that are needed for certain scenes. In this case I needed props like fake money and a bag for the money for the film. I decided that shopping for these products would be the best idea to find them. First, I looked at party city and couldn't find anything. Then, I looked at a local grocery store. I couldn't find anything there either. Ultimately i ordered the items online. They will be arriving soon. The effective utilization of props is crucial in the portrayal of film.

My group is doing a music commercial. The genre is Alternate rock snyth-pop The music videos range from 3-5 minutes. We started the research by watching a range of music videos. There are multiple close up and far shots in all music videos. These shots help show the scenery as well as the singers facial expressions. The camera also has serval POVS and pans so we can see the scenery.  CLAMPS: The costumes seems to be cheap and your average clothes. There is nothing that makes these music videos pop out. The lighting defers from scene to scene as some is lit by the sun or perhaps lit by the city lights. The actors lip sing in some scenes and in others it plays over the background. Some props are used such as cars, bikes, food, drinks. There are several different settings. Throughout most of the music videos the main actors/singers are alone. SOUND: The sound will be the music in the video in the background. This kind of music has some mood changes that will change the mood in the vid...
