Mise-en-scene school's essence


The concept which we tried to capture was the standardisation to which the students are subject to: the uniformity in which everyone is turned (tried to turn) into certain model student (through imposal of uniform, haircut, behaviour, etc.). This school conformity is the essence we tried to evoke in this shot, by aligning the characters in two symmetrical rows and dressing everybody equally (also the equal poses), conveying a sense of discipline and order. Being a fairly long-shot with straight angle, there was space for the spacial depth to be noticed and the sun to hit in only one of the sides of the character's faces, in order to enforce/maximise this equality, this constant conformist view of creating repeated stereotypes.
