                                                  Mise-en-scene:

Setting, props and costume: The scene opens with an establishment shot, featuring a school with a bike shelter. The props we used are bikes, a common way of transport particularly used by pupils getting to school. Thus, we used bikes as a prop to help highlight the setting; a school. Moreover, the character is wearing smart clothes which further illustrates that the setting is a school.

Character expression - The scene shows the protagonist being absolutely shocked and panicking over the situation. This is unequivocally, a common reaction after discovery that a cherished possession is stolen. Therefore, the characters expression is rather fitting for the scene.

 lighting - The scene is dark and the weather is overcast and the sky is mundane to look at. Thus, this sets the mood of the scene as well as epitomising that something is clearly out of the ordinary, Also, the lighting highlights the characters distraught emotions.

Make-up - There is no use of make -up.
