Mise-en-scene
Is the arrangement of everything that appears in the framing; actors, lighting, decor, props, costume. Its called mise-en-scene, a French term that means "placing on set." The frame and camerawork also constitute the mise-en-scene of a movie.
Even though many professionals are involved in its creation, the director is the one that oversees the entire mise-en-scene and all its elements. Not just that, but during the early stages of pre-production, the director or his AD sits down with the set designers, prop masters, location managers, costume designers, and scenic artists to determine the look and feel intended.
Its the composition of a shot and everything in the frame. Things to consider would be:
Setting: location and environment where action takes place, colours used to light the action exterior/interior, time of day.
Wardrobe: importance of costume for certain characters, make up, hair.
Props: what is visible in the frame, where are they (in/out of focus).
Acting: positioning of actors, interaction with each other, casting.
Placement: how all of these things are positioned within the composition of a shot.
Effect: on the audience: mood, tension, atmosphere, emotion (patlos), implicit/explicit meaning.
