Mise-en-scene analysis: 2

This boy is called Adam, like Carmen he is interested in the indie/rock scene and he loves music. He straight away fits into my genre by the tattoos on his arms, these are a sign of slight 'rebellion' but more the idea of just doing what he wants, because he likes it! I asked him to wear simple clothes of just jeans and a white T-shirt, this was to draw attention to the instruments and the idea of the music he would be involved with. He is wearing a beanie hat because I have seen many other artists dressed like this, and it just looks natural on him. I have included the guitar in this shot to show the genre of music and there are also other musical tools such as the amp and there is a microphone lead showing. Because my double page spread was about an 'at home interview' with this band, I made sure the shot was made visible that it's set in a real house, rather than a studio or made up set.

 
By doing an analysis of the mise-en-scene in my setting it gave me a chance to express the features I have used and how I have done it. I learnt that mise-en-scene is extremely important and without looking at fine details I could have given off the wrong impression or idea of what my magazine is about. Even though my aim was to have these photos look like they were taken in a home, because they actually were there are some things that I have accidentally left in the shot such as a glass, this could have been taken out to make it look slightly more professional.
