mise en scene

1. Mise-en-scene
Mise-en-scene refers to the components of a scene and their composition.
The main elements in a scene are:
● Background & Setting
● Costume and Styling
● Props
● Lights

2. Background & Setting
My setting is going to be Old Lahore, focusing on
Food Street and so my background will naturally
include streets and perhaps local passersby.

3. Costume & Style
My model is not the main focus of the magazine,
but will only be shown on the content page of my
magazine.
For that shoot, the model will be dressed in a plain
shalwar kameez. The traditional outfit and its
simplicity will help in making the personality look
more natural. To complement the look, her
makeup will also be fairly plain.

4. Props
Props are elements that physically complement
the model and are among the main components of
the magazine cover.
However, since my shoot will be focused mainly on
objects/locations etc. I won't be using any props in
specific.

5. Light
My key lighting will be natural sunlight as my
shooting area will be open. So, my shoot will take
place between 11 am and 5 pm. This will help me
experiment with a variety of different natural key
lightings to help me decide what looks best.
