Mise en scene example

Mise en scene
Mise en scene is the arrangement of scenery and the different properties which represent were the scene is set and shows were the place the shot is, these can be shown to set the mise en scene by the stage settings, props in the scene, use of colour, lighting and characters. 

This is a clip of Harry Potter and the deathly Hallows part 2. I choose this as I think it has used the mise en scene perfect to set the scene and to show the audience what exactly is happening. The movie starts by showing the warner Brows sign and is very dark with spooky music in the background which then goes into a shot of showing all of the scary creatures outside the school of hogwarts, at this point all of the colours used are greys and black which gives the impression that something very dark has happened. It then goes into a shot of a teacher who is facing towards the rest of the dark school, his facial expression is very blank and looks worried which also gives the impression of the negativity in the shot. The mise en scene through the shots of darkness, the background music and people looking worried has given the audience the impression of the negativity which is to come in the film.
