If I Had To Do This Project Again, How Would I Improve Mise-en-scené?

I think our use of mise-en-scené was appropriate and all relevant to the genre of action we chose. If I had to do the opening two minutes again I would:

• Use a more realistic gun that makes a shooting sound to reduce sound editing
• Carry a gun holster for actor convenience so we do not have to re shoot several times
• Find costumes for the actors to wear that are more flexible and designed for the actions we required
• Think about the time of day we want to film and the light intensity outside
• Think about use of props in the board room scene

I think our costumes were effective and appropriate for the genre we chose. I think we need to think about lighting more carefully next time as the board room scene was lit quite darkly, and although it gave the atmosphere a feeling of seriousness, it hid the characters expressions.
