Planning-Mise En Scene-Mr Smith

Setting:

 Our group have decided that we will have three different location at school, falcon street and Hobby street. The school setting will be when The pregnant women find out that weather she is pregnant or not. The Hobby street will be when the shooting scene will happen and the Falcon Street will be when the antagonist founds out that her lover is having an affair. We will also be shooting in school. It will be a white small room as that represents a mental institution. That setting will be shot when the anti-hero is acting strangely. And also when the antagonist comes back as a ghost and comes towards the anti-hero. These setting will all represent each scene.


Costume, Hair and Make-up: 

The anti- hero will be dressed in grey normal top as that will represent her innocence's but also show the audience that she has a split personality.  The anti-hero make-up will be neutral in different scenes as that will also show her that she might be a victim. The hair will in different scenes for example the first flashback will be she is happy about her flashback so her make-up will be neutral and hair will be in a ponytail, then when she comes back from the flash back her hair is messy/frizzy and her mascara and eyeliner will be smudges. The second flashback will when she is a caught with a affair her hair will be in a bun and make up will be simple, then when she comes back from that flashback her hair will still be frizzy/messy and mascara and eyeliners will be smudged and smeared down her face from the crying. The last flashback will be when she kills the antagonist her make-up will look like she is tired and her hair won be neat, when she comes back from that flashback her will still look messy and her make-up will be smeared all over her face from he crying.The professor will wear normal clothing and a white lab coat, This is will represents his good intention and that the professor is intelligent.The hair will be messy and shot and will have a clear face. The antagonist will have normal clothing during the flashbacks, will having different hair styles during the flashback and also have neutral make-up. But when she comes back as a ghost and enters the room she wears a white long dress and will have long messy hair that will partly cover her face, her make up will be pale with under bag and her eyes will look like blood which will leave the audience with suspense.

Lighting:

The lighting we will be using will consist with low key, under tone and black and white flashes. The first scene we will be using under lighting to make the audience see the scene more clear and what is happening to the anti-hero as she behaves strange, this will also be a low lighting when the protagonist looks at the laptop as he is observing the anti-hero. The lighting will also show the protagonist intention that he does not want to harm the women but wants to observe the anti-hero. There will be another low lighting key when the anti-hero behavior changes to demonstrate her feelings toward the audience to make it clear as she goes into flashback to show how she was in a metal institution.

Iconography:

There will be different iconography to represent what is going on in each scene. In the first scene there will be a desk, stationary, laptop that  suggests that the protagonist has Knowledge  and is observing something when he is looking at the laptop. The professor also has images of a women n the  background. This makes he audience question what the man is observing and why. In a white plain room there is a demented women with a tray that include a glass of water and half eaten food. This represents that the women is to disturbed to be eating food and also the chair that is going to support the tray. The lack of iconography kin this scene helps the audience focus ore on the character the  whats is around character. The anti-hero will have flashbacks. The first flashback iconography is the anti-hero lover handing a rose. The audience understand that they are in a relationship but also see the antagonist finding out her lover is cheating and that will create tension. The second flashback is   the anti-hero finding out she is  pregnant when she is in the bathroom holding a pregnant test. pregnancy test as she finds out that she is pregnant. The final flash back will be the anti-hero shooting the antagonist with a gun. This is unexpected form the audience  which creates tension and suspense.

Body language and Facial expression


The anti-hero has different body language and facial expression.When the anti-hero is in the metal institution her body language is very unstable as she is jumping around and screaming whereas her facial expression is her crying and very confusing to the audience as they don't know what to expect. The ant-hero first flashback her body language is very calm and she has a good posture.The anti-hero facial expression is happy ass that shows she is in a happy relationship with her boyfriend but when  she is caught by the antagonist she becomes worried. The second flashback is when she does a pregnancy test and founds out she is pregnant, Her facial expression is extremely happy as she founds out she s pregnant but also crying as it is unexpected for her. The body language of the anti-hero is she is slouching as she is looking at the pregnancy test. The final flashback the anti-hero body language is her posture is very slouched posture as she murdered the antagonist. The anti-hero facial expression is very worries and scared as she comes to milling the antagonist
The professor body language is a good posture when looking at the laptop and and having a confused and also curious facial expression as he is looking at the laptop. The response from the audience is curiosity as they want to know what the professor is looking at.
The antagonist facial expression will be shock as she finds out her lover is cheating and also her body language will be very still as she is shock and doesn't know what to do. When  the shooting scene happens the antagonist will be killed so she doesn't really have a facial expression just still face,  as this will make it clear that she is dead, her body language will be also still/frozen as she is represented as a dead women.
