Mise en Scene: Our characters and settingsBY FRASER MCPHERSON

The ActorsFor our production we plan on using 6 actors; four participants, a presenter and a ‘psychologist’. For the presenter we will use on of the group members. This is because on the day of filming we don’t want to have to get too many people from Uxbridge to Harrow and back. By keeping it small it makes transporting people around easier. We plan on using a psychology teacher from school playing the part of the psychologist as she will have previous knowledge on the subject and will be willing to help

The Actors continued For our participants we plan on using four of our friends; Tom H, Joss, Tom C and Giles.

They all did GCSE drama and Joss and Tom C are doing A level drama. Tom C and Giles have acted in media productions for other schools and Tom C was in our production for AS. They are all very reliable to the point that they will arrive to an agreed location twenty minutes before the agreed time. We all have complete faith that they help us and will be professional whilst doing the production.

Location We plan on basing the documentary in a scout hut a group member goes to. This is

because it is in a very remote location and the inside of the hut is barren and plain. There are camp beds and steel containers that we can freely use as props.

Lighting We will use the lights in the hut for our lighting as they are bright and focuses well with the

camera. For when we film outside we will use natural light and unnatural light when we are filming in darker areas.

Clothes

For our production we will have our participants wear casual clothes so that they can relate to the audience better. The presenter and ‘psychologist’ will wear more formal clothing to make them look professional.
