The Descent: Mise-en-
scene Analysis
Sam Carpenter
Clip 3 - Hospital
Lighting
LIGHTING: The colour of Sarah in the
hospital suggests the cold loneliness,
fluorescent lighting, and an
abandoned, uninviting industrial feel
to the scene. This contrasts to the
(although dark) warm, orange glow of
the opening scene with the birthday
cake.
The green tint is in contrast to the end
of the scene where Sarah falls into
Beth’s arms, where reality kicks back
in and everything turns to a pure
white to suggest safety and a clean
environment. The green is washed
away and there are no more harsh
shadows like in the corridor-running
scene.
Location
LOCATION: The hospital at the
beginning of the clip presents a
surprise to the viewer. All of the
medical instruments and tools in and
around Sarah present a strange new
environment to the viewer, and create
an effect of imprisonment – or even
being pulled away from the warm
location with the birthday cake. In the
corridor, the white walls and lack of
people create an eerie, industrialised
and uninviting scene. The same
location was made to look so different
with the green colour tint, which
displays a great example of how
colour can change the atmosphere of
a scene.
Costume
COSTUME: Sarah’s costume remains
the same throughout the scene – the
hospital gown suggests that she is
helpless and is a patient in the
hospital. We now know that she has
had a bad accident and is in hospital
due to that. In contrast to the
hallucination scene, the gown in the
reality scene suggests that she is
safe in the hands of the hospital. The
costumes of the people around her
are typical of what would be found in
a hospital, with doctors and nurses
roaming around past Sarah and Beth
which further cements the idea that
she is back in reality.
Props
PROPS: There are two props in the
hospital sequence – the heart monitor
and the cake. The cake symbolises
Sarah’s daughter and the importance
of her daughter’s birthday party that
she never got. and when Sarah is
dreaming, she is with her daughter. It
symbolises that she could be with her
daughter if she stays asleep (dies).
The hear monitor as a prop the
breaks that dream, and displays that
Sarah is waking up and back in
‘reality’, and stops the dream. The
fact that the heart monitor is showing
0 bpm could be foreshadowing to the
predominant theme of death in the
movie.
Clip 4 - Cave
Lighting
LIGHTING: In the beginning of the
scene there is only the head torch
light and the darkness of the cave.
Later on, the lighting becomes more
effective from Holly’s camera – using
the Night Vision. However, the green
spooky tint returns. This was most
likely done for the purpose of making
sure that the audience can see the
creature and it is sure to scare them.
The green night-vision gives another
uninviting and spooky feel to the
scene, and along with the dialog
creates a very tense environment.
Location
LOCATION: The cave is extremely
frightening – the night vision allows
for the cave to be seen a lot more
comprehensively – whilst still
maintaining a dark feel. The large
rocks, big shadows, human bones
and the water create an epic and
intimidating environment.

Mise en-scene micro analysis - The Descent

  • 1. S The Descent: Mise-en- scene Analysis Sam Carpenter
  • 2. Clip 3 - Hospital
  • 3. Lighting LIGHTING: The colour of Sarah in the hospital suggests the cold loneliness, fluorescent lighting, and an abandoned, uninviting industrial feel to the scene. This contrasts to the (although dark) warm, orange glow of the opening scene with the birthday cake. The green tint is in contrast to the end of the scene where Sarah falls into Beth’s arms, where reality kicks back in and everything turns to a pure white to suggest safety and a clean environment. The green is washed away and there are no more harsh shadows like in the corridor-running scene.
  • 4. Location LOCATION: The hospital at the beginning of the clip presents a surprise to the viewer. All of the medical instruments and tools in and around Sarah present a strange new environment to the viewer, and create an effect of imprisonment – or even being pulled away from the warm location with the birthday cake. In the corridor, the white walls and lack of people create an eerie, industrialised and uninviting scene. The same location was made to look so different with the green colour tint, which displays a great example of how colour can change the atmosphere of a scene.
  • 5. Costume COSTUME: Sarah’s costume remains the same throughout the scene – the hospital gown suggests that she is helpless and is a patient in the hospital. We now know that she has had a bad accident and is in hospital due to that. In contrast to the hallucination scene, the gown in the reality scene suggests that she is safe in the hands of the hospital. The costumes of the people around her are typical of what would be found in a hospital, with doctors and nurses roaming around past Sarah and Beth which further cements the idea that she is back in reality.
  • 6. Props PROPS: There are two props in the hospital sequence – the heart monitor and the cake. The cake symbolises Sarah’s daughter and the importance of her daughter’s birthday party that she never got. and when Sarah is dreaming, she is with her daughter. It symbolises that she could be with her daughter if she stays asleep (dies). The hear monitor as a prop the breaks that dream, and displays that Sarah is waking up and back in ‘reality’, and stops the dream. The fact that the heart monitor is showing 0 bpm could be foreshadowing to the predominant theme of death in the movie.
  • 7. Clip 4 - Cave
  • 8. Lighting LIGHTING: In the beginning of the scene there is only the head torch light and the darkness of the cave. Later on, the lighting becomes more effective from Holly’s camera – using the Night Vision. However, the green spooky tint returns. This was most likely done for the purpose of making sure that the audience can see the creature and it is sure to scare them. The green night-vision gives another uninviting and spooky feel to the scene, and along with the dialog creates a very tense environment.
  • 9. Location LOCATION: The cave is extremely frightening – the night vision allows for the cave to be seen a lot more comprehensively – whilst still maintaining a dark feel. The large rocks, big shadows, human bones and the water create an epic and intimidating environment.
