Mise-en-Scene Planning 2

 In addition to the physical elements of mise-en-scène, I have been thinking about the overall visual style and atmosphere of the film. Camera framing and composition will work closely with the set and lighting to guide the audience’s attention and emotions. For example, wider shots could make my main character appear small or isolated within her environment, while closer shots could highlight her facial expressions during moments of thought or frustration. These choices will help reinforce the theme of feeling mentally distant from the world around her.

I am also considering how color and space can influence the viewer’s perception of mood. A more limited color palette in reality scenes compared to slightly more vibrant or unusual tones in imagined moments could subtly show the contrast between the two worlds. Even simple adjustments, like changing the brightness or adding slight visual distortion, can create a surreal feeling without overwhelming the story. The goal is to maintain a cohesive look that supports the narrative rather than distracting from it.
