Mis -En -scene

The props we plan to use for our video is what will be assisting us to achieve the best possible outcome of the video

To discuss what props we are using at first, we must intervene with the theme of the movie in which we must have the description of theme for the trailer. (Gangster, drugs and criminal offence theme)

First off, in practical ways, for our main characters (the high profile drug lords) will be disguised with darkened sunglasses on. As typical as it is, we truly do think that the shades will enhance the meaning of each and every main character. It gives them definition of powerful by a distance. We understand that if eye contact was blocked throughout the scenes, it will only add to the mystery of that particular character.

As for the main protagonist of the show, Hao Zheng. An eye patch will be worn to enhance that powerful, evil theme across the lines.
Although we may not know the story behind the eye-patch, it will give Hao Zheng an aura of corruption. Most of the times, we may relate eye patches with pirates of some sort, although we may not be trying to achieve that affect, in relation, we have moderately gained a depressant atmosphere around the character.

In terms with the clothing, all high profile drug lords will be wearing the typical gangster suit in a stylish way. Suits, ties and foot wear shall moderately be dark and mysterious but also will appear ravenous at time throughout the movie. We plan to picture the drug lords with a strong bondage of fear and immortality as this would give that certain dark effect that we all have been looking for.

Other Mis-en-scene includes the main type of weapon: The Gun. It is appropriate to say that the gun adds ferocity upon the whole trailer as we understand that the weapon of killing will be the most effective upon the death scenes. The Gun is a brand image of power and force in which makes this perfect for the killing of Hao Zheng. We know that Hao Zheng is a powerful force behind all the criminals and drug lords and so, to fight fire, we must fight back with a bigger and brighter fire to which concludes to the Gun.

The knife is used within one of the assassination attempts upon the tower. Thinking with the audience, we know that most modern public regards a Knife for assassination purposes in killing terms. It is perfect for that initial scene due to the fact that the weapon is one that is silent throughout the whole movie. Although as not as fast and as effective as the Gun, the motion and the long timing increases the amount of suspense. We initially aim for that suspense effect at all times.
