MIse-en-scene elements (lighting)

        

The lighting of the environment matters greatly. It could help give off the mood of the situation or give information of a character. A dark room with someone in it could suggest they want to be alone with their thoughts or they do not care enough to turn them on. It may also tell the audience that the things inside the room are not important to the story.

        A bright room could show the audience that the film creators want the audience to pay attention to the room and gather information on the type of person the character is. Lighting could also give information on the character's wellbeing. For example. Light showing a clear layer of dust in a room.
