Set Design













My interpretation of of Set Design is basically the make up of a set (the place where the scene is shot) to either make it more visually attractive/ aesthetically pleasing or to covey the correct time period or overall meaning/ concept to a particular scene i.e if a scene is meant to be western styled, the set will be made up to look fairly vintage through the use of lighting colours and set props and often these stereotypical scenes include similar locations and a similar set design basis i.e the saloon, a dusty road or a gold mine.

Similar to the scene from location  the above shots shows a western styled set, with correct era props (bar a few tweaks which are core to the plot i.e the modern street lamps), buildings and climate. This adds to the immersion into the scene and the overall enjoyment of the shot.
