  Multimedia Mise-en-scene Project

Throughout the process of creating my mise-en-scene project, my group and I had many activity goals to accomplish. Firstly, we had to create a description of our character by writing a short paragraph simply explaining her physical appearance, her life, and her lifestyle. In order for us to create this description, my group and I decided to plan before writing and think about the stereotypes and selection we can add to create this character. We wrote about our character named Angelina who is 28 years old and is short and chubby with curly hair, dark brown eyes, and glasses. 

We also added that she has a loving husband, has a dog, lives in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and likes to go on a nature walk. We also wrote in our description about how she loves to critique popular movies with her friends on her downtime. Secondly, we created a mood board to show pictures and objects that could describe her characteristics. And lastly, we created a visual representation of our character, her characteristics, and her lifestyle. In order for us to create this visual we decided to create a visual interactive game to show how she gets ready and goes on about her life every day.

Once we were finished with our projects, we decided to think of visual objects that we could bring that would give a stereotype to her. We decided to bring a vinyl and CDs since she loved media so much. When we had finished setting up every computer with each part of the project, we decided to place the v vinyl next to the computer with the mood board to give a more realistic view of what she likes as well. Overall, I believe my group worked really hard on constructing this project and did very well on doing so.
