The Mise en scene of a film is the arrangement of everything that appears in the framing, this includes actors, lighting, décor, prop and costume, The word Mise en scene comes from French origin and means ''placing on stage''. The frame and camera work also contributes to the Mise en scene of a movie.
The image above gives an example of a particular frame that has an interesting look and feel to it, There are many things that could be seen that add to the overall effect, this is also intriguing because there is no character in the site of the viewer but only the shadow of a creature., this gives the viewer a bothersome feel that something bad may transpire. Also the form of lighting used in this frame is low key lighting, this is regularly used in thrillers and horror films because the dark shadows that are crated help to drive the plot along and subconsciously makes the audience feel uneasy.This Mise en scene is simple but very effective because the frame is not busy with too many characters props or loud costumes but strips away the layers and as a sharp and sinister connotation that adds to the overall experience
