Mis En Scene (miz-en-scen)- Translated as "Placing on stage". It is the arrangement of all of the visual elements of a theatrical production within the scene or stage. There are generally 4 elements:
1. Physical setting and decor
2. Staging of the action
3. The way in which the elements are framed
4. The way in which the elements are photographed

As they get closer, Zebra notices that the expression and voice of the Lion is not happy but very angry. Zebra puts on the brakes and runs away screaming "Ohhhh, Sugar, Honey, Iced, Tea!".
Work it out yourself....
