Coursework planning: Final locations

FINAL LOCATION/S

Images of final locations/setting to be used:

Why are they going to be used?

For our opening, we plan to shoot very closely to the character's hands and the object's that she handles. So considering this, it is more practically orientated when thinking about our final location. All we need is to use a desk of a reasonable size, so we could fit all of the props and everything on it, but other that, the location could be anywhere. We have decided that we should film at daisy's house, (one of our group members), as it is simply closer to school. She has That way we can film right after school and everyone can get there fine. We all have appropriate 'arty' props that we can bring along as well. 

How does the setting you are planning on using, help construct a mise-en-scene?

All we need is to use a desk of a reasonable size, so we could fit all of the props on it and it'll be big enough to film everything. We want to film close up and only the hand/s of our character so our mise-en-scene (everything you see on the screen) doesn't have much in it. Ours will mostly be constructed by: the character, lighting, and the props. The locations, therefore needs to encompass these conditions to create the mise-en-scene setting. The setting we plan on using has various lighting options, from the ceiling light and coloured fairy lights, a lamp light or a iphone light. The actor in the film will be daisy and so, beforehand, we plan to paint parts of her hand so that on screen, it looks messy and the audience may guess that the rest of the room is too. This is the same as the props, because they will be strewn across the desk so this can also help add to the mise-en-scene.
