The Mise en Scène Company (MSC) is an independent film and multimedia production company founded in 2020 by Paul S.L. Yates and Netto Fernandes.[1][2]

History and Founding

[edit]

MSC was founded by Paul S.L. Yates and Netto Fernandes, during furlough from their jobs at The Ritz London hotel amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. This downtime has been attributed as catalyzing their efforts to launch the company. Although named after the cinematic term “mise en scène,” the founders' are quoted as being inspired by "mise en place" whilst they worked at the Ritz.[1]
