Mis En Scene is everything that involves before the camera and it's setting/arrangements. Mis en scene has 5 elements which are the following:
Lighting/colour
Costume, hair and make- up
Settings and props
Positioning of characters
facial expressions and body shots
Colour is also important when it comes to mis-en-scene, as colour can have ambiguous meanings. For an example the colour red can have connotations of danger and love.
An example of colour representation used in mis en scene was in mice of men, where Curley's wife was seen as promiscuous as she wanted to stand out and done this by wearing red in a seductive way alongside with bright red lipstick, she done this to attract attention to herself as she was the only women ranch.
