Mise-en-scene.

The settings that we have used is crucial to the film plot, we have filmed in a tunnel that is surrounded by deserted land which puts the characters in a more dangerous situation as there is no one there to help them.  When they move into the tunnel the characters think that they are safe, however the tunnel is dark which we did to build tension, as you can’t see what is happening. 

Throughout the filming that we did we were unable to control the lighting because we filmed outside, and in tunnels, which did not have any lights. As it was so dark inside the tunnels we had to take a touch with us so that we were able to shine light onto the characters and were able to see, however we only made it bright enough so that the characters could be seen, it was still dark enough to create tension.     


We didn’t use any props because we wanted to make it look realistic and they would not have taken much to such a remote location as it would have been hard to get everything there. The one prop that they did use, although not actually shown in the footage is the camera that they filmed everything on, we have shown that they are holding it by the shaking that is entailed. 


The costumes that the characters had on were chosen so that they would not stand out too much, we wanted the audience to focus on the situation that was happening rather than what was the characters were wearing. We also wanted to make it look believable, and so they are wearing clothes that any normal teenager would have worn on a normal day out, in the location that they were in.
