Mise en scene Ideas and Write up


The choice of mise-en-scene within an image adds to the effect and helps portray exactly what image the model wants it to. This can be through props, the setting and the hair and makeup collaborated with costume. Often music composers are found having images taken with their instruments and/or the equipment they use to create their music. As well as this they use things in the image such as props which relate to their particular song or album they have produced. This can be seen in the example of Katy Perry's 'California Girls' video as she connects the lyrics to the costume and wigs. Celebrities use the props and mise en scene within an image or album to make it more creative and thoughtful. This then draws the public into reading more about it or buying the produce. 
         Within my music magazine and my images I am going to use a strong scene of costume to portray the image that I want to. My main cover photo in particular to draw the reader in. Using makeup and fake eye lashes will bring the readers attention to point as this will be one of the first things they notice looking at the picture on the front cover. The DPS will be more subtle however and I will use a locational shot. This will be in order to give the reader a more relaxed feel when looking at the setting. The mise en scene is important in order to make sure the reader is enjoying the articles without going over board. The more mise en scene the more busy the page looks distracting the audience from what's important on the page.
