Setting and Costume

 Today I am going to be talking about some of the mise-en-scene elements for our film opening! First will be our setting and costumes.

To start off I will be talking about the setting. Our film opening is going to take place in 2 different settings

Setting #1: 

The beach

We chose the beach as the first setting since it gives a positive introduction to our film opening which is exactly what we want. We want to first showcase all the good times the sisters had so we thought the beach would be the perfect place for this goal.

We are thinking that we are probably going to go to Fort Lauderdale beach since it is the closest to us. Fort Lauderdale is usually filled with children giving a joyous atmosphere to the beginning of our film opening which is what we are trying to convey.

Setting #2:

Bedroom

The next place would just be Meliyah's bedroom. Since Meliyah already has photos with her sister in her room we thought filming in her room would be the most realistic for this scenario.

Finally the costumes!

We have chosen to have the sisters wear white flowy dresses at the beach symbolizing their innocence and fun times they had. This will be worn when they are at the beach at the beginning of the film opening.

Then the last costume would be just casual clothing since they will be in the bedroom. Probably jeans and a top since they would be going out somwhere.

This is what we have so far! I am so excited to get the filming started soon.
