Mise-En-Scene for Filming Areas.

     Now, after I showed you the mise-en-scene for the character, you must be wondering how I am doing my mise-en-scene for my surroundings. Nothing much to change the current surroundings to begin with, other than make it look like a party get together. Or the starting of one at least. So, today is not a day I can actually film due to the fact that I will be out and about today. That, however, does not mean that I cannot plan out what my surroundings will look like when you can see all of it. 

    For the kitchen area, it would look more cluttered and a mess of dishes and food. I plan to have streamers taped to the ceiling and garlands hung up. A lot of thing stretched out atop the ceiling. On the countertops, I plan to line certain areas with arts and crafts like the garlands were made by Mallory and over the oven, I plan to line the countertop with cooking utensils that were used to make the cake you immediately see. Obviously, right now my kitchen is not looking like a "birthday party" setting. So this is what I would plan to look like in the kitchen:

    Obviously I need to clear out a majority of the area. But, I can definitely get some of the filming in when I set up, just in case I want to put in more time (if needed).

The next area that is obviously needed to be set up is Ma's office area. For the most part, the room is already there in my setting up. Three computer screens, papers everywhere, a bit of clutter. I have to get rid of the blanket that we generally have and I would have to clutter up the extra desk a little more for it to look more used, but other than that the room is pretty good. The only issue that I may have is that my filming will be angled. In the office room, as you see, we have a treadmill that weighs quite the bit to move. So, I have to film at an angle so none of it gets into the camera.

    It definitely seems that I will be using the kitchen way more, which makes a lot of sense. Gladly, I am not complaining. Do not get me wrong, dear customer. I do like creating, but I have definitely been slightly overwhelmed as any small merchant in teaching would be. As is life, an overwhelming thing sometimes. At this point, I am just talking so I will let you go. As always, valued customer, have a good morning, good evening, and goodnight!
