Setting of the story itself

First up is the setting in time and place of the story itself. Take the movie War of the Worlds, for instance (the most recent, 2005 version). The time setting of the movie is the current day. The place setting of the movie is mainly the eastern side of the United States of America, although there are shots from all over the world.
