Unit 1: Lesson 3 Production Design: Location, setting and mood
Today I learnt…- that the location, setting and mood can change the genre of your story. A dark, spooky genre can differ from a bright and cheerful genre because by changing the colour of the scene, you can change your genre.
- changing the mood by adding lighting and various colours and fog. It shows relationship and emotion between two people or two different points of view.
- adding swatches to change the location of your setting.
Unit 1: Lesson 4 Production Design: Characters, props and set dressings
Today I learnt…- that props can create a world for your settings to take place. The props can also change the mood and settings of your story line.

Today I learnt…
- that movement helps find the difference between whether the character is older or in a less comfortable position.
