Mise En Scene


Alot of different things had to be thought about when considering the placement of props and objects within the scenes. As the particular scene takes place in the house of the criminal it needed to look like a real house and so clutter had to be realistic for a normal house, for example flower vases, clutter and pictures around the room to make it look like the scene is really lived in.

On the shots that look outside a typical British street has been created with a car on the driveway opposite the house and there is also a van placed on the driveway next to the house indicating that there is activity in the house or next door. There is also a bush placed outside the opposite house to help make the area looked lived in. Once inside the house there is clutter about the house and the kitchen area including family pictures on the windowsill and there is a flowery pattern on the wallpaper to show that the house has been lived in and the person being questioned comes from more of a middle class background with alot of disposable income.




The costumes have also been closely considered. The police detective is wearing a lanyard with her id badge in all the scenes to indicate that she is a real police officer and it is her formal identification displaying her job title and department. She is also wearing black formal clothing and has her hair tied back to show more formality. She has minimal jewellery and no facial piercings that wouldn't be allowed whilst the officer is working. It all shows that there is a distinct line between the criminal being questioned and the police officer that is questioning.
