Mise-en-scene refers to everything that appears within the frame of a film, including actors, lighting, décor, props, and costumes. The director arranges all of these elements to construct representations of characters. Mise-en-scene can be split into production design, which includes location, set design, costumes, props, and lighting design including color. When analyzing stills from films and television, mise-en-scene helps reveal aspects of a character's identity through elements of props, costumes, lighting, set design, and location.
