Mise en scène : A New Film

Mise En Scene is an expression used in film and media to describe all the aspects of the piece this includes costume, characters, props, lighting,makeup and camera angles.

I will design a new film using the Mise En Scene concept.
Film Name: Jack
Genre : Horror
Time Set : 1880
Age Rating:18

Synopsis:
A mysterious male walks the streets of New York by the name Freddie Rouge, he seduces and Murders his victims. His killings are the mirror of the infamous Jack the Ripper. Is he the same person who fled London to the safety of New York or a new killer stalking the nation?

Research:
Jack The Ripper was the the name given to an unknown murderer that hunted and killed more than 5 prostitutes in London, Whitechapel during Autumn 1888. Jack the Ripper was never found and is still considered the most famous serial killer around the world.

Setting : The type of setting that would be suitable for the film would be around the typical American wooden style buildings. With horse and carriages in the streets, steam trains leaving stations, with the smoke and ash falling from the factories.










Costume :
Men would be in bowler hats, trench and waist coats, suit, shirt and ties.
Women would be in full length dress with corsets, petticoats, etc.












Characters That Would Be Good at Their Roles :
Tobin Bell - Freddie Rouge
Jack Black - Inspector Mead
Miranda Richardson - Victim
