Mise-En-Scene

Setting and Location:

We will be using Seaford beach to film the band performing the song, throughout the video we will be cutting a lot back and forth to this to show the song being performed by what will be our interpretation of the 'Arctic Monkeys'.

For the narrative we will be filming along around our 'Sussex Downs College' as this is really easy to do for us, as in organization and we will be able to obtain all props and actors without lots of hassle, furthermore and more importantly our target audience is youths of 17 - 20 and thats the age range of the college. We will also use New haven beach and pier as this is very Indie like and would be ideal for the genre of music we are filming.

The setting is going to be kind of black and white beach / seaside towns. We will still try and capture a modern feel to the video however we want to play to the traditional Indie culture and keep it.

Costume and make up:

We will be using minimal make up for the band as we want to try and keep them all ladish like and normal, we're not trying to create a pop celebrity look, we just want to keep it as real as possible so that our target audience can relate.

The clothes worn by the majority of the actors will be every day to day clothing. They will be jeans and a t shirt or a jumper. We will want the band to look more like rock members and the narrative to look like average people. This will suit the Indie market.

Use Of Colour


The band will be filmed in the evening on the beach we will emphasize the sunset if we manage to get it and stay in theme with the colors of the sea and the pebbles the beach. We will want to capture a rustic luck as theres lots of cast iron pylons and boats on the beach. During the college setting it will be average lighting and outside it will be daylight so we will use this to our liking.

The band members will be wearing average colors but not so much so they blend into the background, enough to stand out from the others as well.

Props

Props will be a key part of the narrative as they will be used to help tell the story to the audience and used to keep the video constantly linked and intact with the song. I'll make sure we use things like work book's, cars, appropriate clothing.

When we cant film something narrative to the song we will use a prop to connect it together to the video of the Arctic Monkeys. For example the lyrics 'She wagged English and Science' we can use Science and English books.
