mise en scene
"Mise en scene" is a French term that literally means "placing on stage." It is used in film and theater to refer to the arrangement of everything that appears in the framing - actors, lighting, decor, props, costumes, etc. It can also refer to the composition of a shot, and how these elements are organized to convey a particular mood, meaning, or narrative. These elements contribute to the visual theme or storytelling of a movie, play or opera.
