Research: Set Design

A set design is a major contributor to determining how and what tone is supposed to be set for a scene. If you want a gory and intense setting, then you are going to want blood, weapons, and possibly visible internal organs. Its disgusting to think about but it doesn't have to be a horror setting. If you want a more jovial setting, then you can make everything colorful and vibrant. Moreover, how a set is designed can determine the tone and mood of the film as a whole. Honestly, that is what makes set design so important. Without it, how can the viewers get a better idea of what is going on if there is just acting and no setting.

The person who is responsible for making set designs is called the set designer. Moreover, this person doesn't do this by themselves.

Producers play a part in supplying the designers with the necessary materials needed for the scene. Moreover, the cinematographer plays the part of informing the designers on what the tone of the scene is supposed to be.
