Mise-en-scene
Clothing Characters are always judged on their
clothing and personality. Clothing can make an impression on a audience e.g. if a man was wearing scruffy , dirty clothing this enforces the idea that he is maybe poor and not as wealthy as the other characters .
A characters appearance can relay stereotypical attributes.
We want to dress our characters quite basic but whilst still portraying their stereotypical character. We don’t want to make the stereotypes to extreme so that the audience can not relate to each character.
We are planning on dressing our characters in jeans top and jacket as it is winter and will be cold, nothing to outrageous.
Props Props can help build a scene and set the
genre. Horror trailers commonly use a range of
props that strike fear into viewers and most props have some relation to gore, death and pain.
Props Needed
Shots Different shots can also make the
audience think different things. For example a high angle can make the character look small and create the idea that they are not alone.
We want to use a variety of shots in our trailer.
