the mise-en-scene within our trailer and movie was fairly evident in my opinion. there includes a lot of make-up and props which our character cast use. we also had the antagonist wear a trench coat, and have a horse mask, although we did originally want a hockey mask for it, we decided to use a horse mask instead, partially because of lack of resources but also because a horse mask would add to comedic humor. this added to the sinister element of our movie, as it can be quite scary seeing a giant horse-masked killer on the loose chasing our main protagonist who is quite helpless. with any horror film the main protagonist is meant to be fierce and able to deal with the horrors of the antagonist in some way shape or form. while of course as said above our protagonist isn't able to do this and gets completely overwhelmed, however this isn't that clear in the trailer, but we did this to entice the audience further and crate a enigma, this would be similar more so of post-modern stereotypical films and performances.
the Mise-en-scene of our trailer also shows and suggests different aspects such as the dark setting of the background and the lighting putting a huge emphasis on violence, fear and negative aspects of our film, which adheres to the conventions and codes of the horror genre, as we know for a fact that horror films are usually very unpleasant, therefore our mise-en-scene show this as much as possible.
