Mise En Scene

Setting
Woods, Houses, Derelict Landscapes, Abandoned Towns,  Warehouses, anything abandoned and open.







Lighting
Digital colour correction, using filters, dark, obscene, dim lighting, flashes, shadows, ultra violet, black light. The lighting is used to add to the feel of the scary atmosphere.

 







Props

Props are needed in order to create a realistic story and narrative. In horror films props are used normally to indicate evil, death and pain. Such things like knifes, guns, ropes, masks etc. These things help in setting the film and in setting the themes and genres of a particular film. This also helps the atmosphere and ambience of the film. Propsplay a significant part in a film in helping to tell a certain story. They are also used by th as equipment used by actors. They tell a story without words and express the thoughts and feelings of the characters.





Costume


Costumes in a Horror Film are usually just normal everyday clothing in a more modern type of film. However, in an older film there would be blood, gore and dark clothing used. Sometimes white. I think that this is to show innocence in the potential victim. Also, in films the use of children also shows this too. This is then the same with Make-Up. The more modern the film the less make up it gets. However, in a more traditional Horror film there is plenty and fake blood too. This is because of the way that technology has changed over the years.

This picture is the use of masks as well as the
costume itself. You can see this as it is
an older film because of the use of the dark,
and dull clothing.
