Mise-en-scene of an Image

Mise-en-scene of an image


This picture you see below this, will be broken down by me using mise-en-scene.

Costume & makeup: The costume that the actor is wearing is just a t-shirt jeans, trainers and a snapback worn backwards. The denotation is that the actors costume is what teenagers wear. The connotation of the costume is that this guy is normal, he is wearing normal clothes that every normal tennager wears, so therefor when the audience see that they will see the actor wearing normal clothes and then no that this guy looks good and he is normal. The makeup that actor has is just facial hair which suggest his age which is mid teen. 

Lighting & colour: The lighting of the image has been done naturally and artificially by using back filler lights and editing softwares. The naturally light is coming from the sun which sets the time of the day. The colour sets the emotion and atmosphere of the image. The colour filter that they have used makes the actor look like he has a mission or a obstacle that he has too overcome.      
Actor, placement & movement:

Setting & Props: The sitting of the image is set near a harbor with lost of stairs, rails and blocks which is lots of obstacles of bmx riders. The prop that they have used a BMX, a normal BMX that most people can afford. The setting and prop gives us lots of ideas of what the actor is doing here.

Placement and Movement: In the image there is no movement but there is placement. The most obvious placement is where the actor and his BMX is and how he is with his BMX. The actor is on his BMX standing while the BMX is between his legs. His hands are on the handles like he is about to start, but most importantly his his face and his eyes is looking towards the sunset, which is the icon of the image.
