Mise en scene

The mise en scene of our thriller follows the conventions. The lighting in the car park creates a very good atmosphere because you can only see one side of the car park, this is because lights only work on one side and the other side is completely black. There are only a few cars in the car park which gives the feeling that it’s a very derelict place. All of the graffiti on the walls suggests that no one really cares about the car park.


The clothing in the film is very generic to what type of person we are trying to portray. My character is very scruffy. He wears a coat which is too big for him and messy shoes. This portrays that he doesn’t really care about his appearance. This is also portrayed well through his smoking habit which is also a convention. The second person in the film is Sam’s brother George. He is wearing a hood and a leather jacket. The hood is usually linked with gangs and other bad types of people. It also creates a sense of mystery which is what we wanted in order to create curiosity and interest. The leather jacket is just another piece of clothing which helps to convey the message that this man means business and is possibly in a better financial position.
