Garage Scene: Mise-en-Scene Log

In this scene, we are shooting our antagonist in their garage lair surrounded by items that establish to the audience that they are a serial killer and are conventional to the psychological horror genre. The mise-en-scene needed in this scene will be:

• The killer's journal
• Photos of past victims on the garage wall
• A desk
• Tools and weapons e.g. craft knives
• Jars full of body parts and liquids

In terms of costume, the killer's identity will remain hidden from the audience, so they will wear dark/black jeans and a black hooded top with the hood up over the actor's face. This scene will be shot in low key lighting with a desk lamp and a torch to create an unsettling and anticipative atmosphere for the audience.
