mise-en-scene (Set and props)

 Hey blog! 

In yesterdays blog I told you guys what the main characters are going to wear. Today, I wanted to talk about what the set is going to look like and what props we decided to use to make each scene more interesting. 

Set and props-

Some locations we are going to be using are a bedroom, basketball court, kitchen, office, and gym. In each setting there will be props to help the viewers infer what might have and also just to make it feel more relatable. The props are also going to help emphasize the relevance of each setting.   

Location 1- The bedroom

This room is supposed to play as JD's room, in this room we’re going to have posters of basketball players and quotes along with jerseys of his favorite teams. On his nightstand, in the corner of each shot done in the bedroom, there will be a picture frame with a picture in it. This will have sentimental value to JD because it’s a picture of JD's father, who passed away a few years prior. 

Location 2- Basketball court

The basketball court is going to be use to film scenes of JD’s one on one training. This is where characters like the coach and some other characters will be introduced. In this location we will see his famous (terrible) jump shot. 

Location 4- Office

The office is going to be a great location because we will be able to see the relationship between JD and the coach. Here, we will learn the way he coaches and how he isn’t an easy going coach. He wants to see improvement, determination, and consistency, we will also see just how serious this coach is and how he becomes close to JD.

Location 5- Gym 

In the gym we will see how hard JD works to achieve his dream. JD wants to become as good at basketball as his dad was, after all the name calling he get from his teammates he realizes he needs to change, here is where he will make these improvements happen. This shows how JD works just as hard on the court as much as off it.
