2. Mise-en-scene
Props:
Option 1 - You have to provide props for a tense police interview between two
officers and one suspected murderer. Decide what props you would incorporate and
how the actors should be directed to use them.
Props needed:
Police uniform, Batons, Handcuffs, Spotlight, Gun, Photographs of victim, evidence
bags, Victims handbag, table, chairs.
How would actors be directed to use them:
The police officers would be wearing the police uniform while the murderer would be
handcuffed. The gun would be visible on the police officer but put away. The
spotlight would be shining into the suspected murderers face while the evidence bag
is on the table.
Location:
Can be a purpose built set or a real location
