Mise-en-scene is important and acts as a code/convention to show meaning. This means that picking our costumes, how we do make-up/hair and facial expressions all play a role and give meaning. This will help the audience to recognise the conventions for the genre in our music video. As well as representing meaning, it also helps the audience to identify the importance of individuals in a music video.
As our music video is trying to give the impression of having fun through codes and conventions, we can show this through mise-en-scene including clothes and make-up,
Throughout the performance scenes we have decided to dress in a way that would be typical of most teenagers. Using brands that are popular through this age such as Ralph Lauren, Supreme, Champion will help the audience to understand the age range of the actors within the music video. This will be effective as the target audience is the people who are within this age range, so by seeing these clothing brands it will interest them as it may be something that they wear, making them more inclined to watch the music video as they may feel it is relevant to them.

During the narrative part of the music video, myself, Ryan, Lucy and Darwin will all be wearing normal clothes. These will be comfy clothes suitable for camping, including jackets with a variety of colours, hoodies, hats and jeans. Having done audience research as well, the majority have said they expect to see fashionable clothes. An example of this is a Ralph Lauren cap being worn backwards which is the current fashion and will be included in our music video. However, for our performance shots in the music video, all of the members in the band playing the instruments will be wearing clothes which are similar/of the same colour. Lucy will not be included in the shot, which will show the binary opposites as well as agree with the audience research of colour co-ordination of clothing/groups being important.
For hair we are going to have the boys styling their hair in an unruly and crazy way. This will show the 'wild side' of them as they are free which helps reinforce the music video as showing that the actors both in the narrative and performance are care free and don't care about anything so long as they are having fun.
