Mise-en-scene pt2

Settings & Props
  • Settings & Locations play an important part in film making and are not just 'backgrounds'
  • Sets are either built from scratch or a great deal of time is spent to find a setting which already exists.
  • Settings can manipulate an audience by building certain expectations and then taking a different turn.
In a science fiction film you are likely to see a setting of Space, post-apocalyptic world or dystopian setting. The props that would be used are weapons, guns. 

In a romantic comedy you are likely see a setting of an American high school or school prom. The props that would be used are likely to be alcohol and teenage essentials etc.
