 Mise-en-scene Elements 2/20/25

    One of the mise-en-scene elements I will be incorporating in my film opening is the use of props. It is extremely important that I incorporate the use of props in my film opening because my plot has a lot of detailed specifics. That said, here is how I will incorporate them in my film opening. As I have mentioned before, my film opening revolves around baseball and two young aspiring baseball players trying to create a team.  

  When my film opens, Luca and Nora are seen playing in the infield utilizing a baseball and catching a glove. It is super important that I capture this moment because not only does it hint the genre by the comedic dialogue, yet it also gives a preview to the audience of what the movie will entail. The props of my film opening will enhance the characters.

Props are important to the characters of my film opening and to the plot. Luca and Nora are trying to reach a final goal- of receiving the golden championship ball. Both characters make flyers in an attempt to recruit new players that are interested in the same prize. This flyer is super important because it does not only foreshadow future events with the information on it, but it also just provides more detail.  

In result, including specific detailed props with meaning will further develop my storyline.
