Mise-en-scene Recreation Task

 Blaire Witch Recreation 

For the mise-en-scene task, I have chosen to recreate the 'Apology scene' from the Blair Witch Project. In my rendition of this scene, I intend to emulate the characters expressions and movements. I want to recreate this scene in the most accurate way possible. To achieve that, I will implement aspects of mise-en-scene.



Costume: the female protagonist is seen wearing a beanie. The rest of her costume is not seen as she does not show that to the camera.

 Lighting: The source of light is a flashlight directed at her face, coming from the right-hand side. There is very minimal lighting surrounding her. The use of only a key light creates dramatic shadows on her face and leaves the background dark. I will use a flashlight to achieve that same effect. 

Actors: The actress appears to be distressed and fearful. She also appears to have tears in her eyes. I will try to recreate her expressions and movements. 

Makeup: The actress does not appear to wear makeup, I will also not wear makeup.

 Props: The only prop used in this scene is a flashlight. I will use the flashlight as a prop in addition to lighting. 

Setting: This scene is set outside in the woods. Although it is no visually disclosed, the setting can be identified from the diegetic sounds. I will edit those sound into my recreation to emulate the same effect that was given in the original version.

Music Video: Common - Letter to the Free

Music Video: Common - Letter to the Free Social and cultural context Common has been involved in a project with  John Legend in which these two successful artists wrote  Glory  as the soundtrack for  Selma. Selma was a  2014 film portraying the 1965 Selma to Montgomery marches, a key moment in the Civil Rights Movement The 13th Amendment of the American Constitution was passed on January 31 1865 and it was to abolish slavery in the United States and provides that neither slavery nor involuntary servitude shall exist in the US. The Black Codes were laws in the Southern states that had an intent of restricting African American's freedom to   ensure their availability as a cheap labour force after slavery was abolished during the Civil War People suggest that the legacy of slavery is still a crucial aspect of American culture 150 years after it was abolished by the 13th Amendment. This is because a lot of sacrifices were made to reach that point. Countless fighting and lives taken res
