Mise-En-Scène

Seen a short film, or any kind of film at all, lately?

If you’re not involved in making film yourself, it’s easy not to realise just how much work goes into what you see on the screen. Everything just looks so good, like it all just happened that way. That’s the craft.

Behind every prop and costume is a designer, a stylist, an artist. Behind that moonlight streaming in through the window is a gaffer, and behind (or under, or over) every line of dialogue is a sound recordist and a boom pole. Behind every script and storyboard is a mess of writing and a pinterest moodboard. You get the vision.

So let’s see the vision, fully realised! From idea, to process, to result. A selection of featured short films will show their work on our screen, and immerse you in their craft in our curated gallery. Mise-En-Scène is a chance to connect with local creatives, to enjoy your night listening to our line up of DJs and grab a drink from the beloved Lord Gladstone below us.

See you there!
