Mise-En-Scene

Mise-en-scene -

Costumes: I want the protagonist to look very urban, stereotypical "chav" from the suburbs of London. Exemplifying her social class etc. 
Hoop Earrings, a go-to accessory for
a typical east-london girl.
Trainers



Make up - I don't want to confide into the stereotype of a "chav" too much because it will seem unrealistic and will make the film look like a sketch from Little Britain. This isn't a comedy. Make-up will be light, because of a dark-toned character minus the dramatic eye-shadow. The overal look seen here, short hair, light make-up and big earrings: 
Estelle.
Lighting - I want, at the beginning, of the title sequence to be dark emphasising her dull environment and living conditions as well as portraying the misery she feels. When she dreams, it becomes light and more vivid with bursting of the colours.

Props - This will allow me to help build character even further. 
A Cigarette, an underaged girl's
bestfriend.
Change, showing unwealthyness. 

A take-out coffee, this is where her dream
takes


Performance - For the protagonists performance, I want her to feel very timid and shy because she's living a not-so happy lifestyle but this will change in her dream she seems more happy and focused. 

To help portray the character of Ruby, I have chosen Red Madrell who has starred in movies similar to mine. Playing a less fortunate girl from an estate. She looks the part of this movie and from watching her movies, she also acts the part.

  • Born in 1987, although this is a little too old for the character's age I think she will still be able to adopt the younger age.
She was born in London, therefore she has experienced the life first hand.

Played in Kidulthood, Adulthood, Casualty and The Bill. These are all drama-based series focusing on mishap and disruption within a daily life.
