Mise en Scene

Morrighan and I took a trip together to the city centre to research possible mise en scene and purchase any that we would like to use in our opening sequence. We prepared a shopping list of the mise en scene we needed beforehand, and then browsed vintage boutiques and fairs and high street stores with vintage style products. We tried to visit as many vintage stores as we could so that our mise en scene was authentic to the 1940/50s era, and we also found them to be reasonably priced. Looking at vintage products also helped us to realise what suitable mise en scene we may already have at home or can borrow from friends/family, as I already have vintage pearls and a 1950s bag, and Morrighan already has a 1950s camera. We decided to use a black and white filter over the images to see how they would look, as this is the filter we will edit onto our opening sequence.

Here is the shopping list and ways which we will retrieve the mise en scene for out OTS, which Morrighan has presented using SlideShare:

Here is the mise en scene which we researched primarily when we went shopping. I have presented this using SlideShare:
