Our Prop Planning

As a Group we have decided to think about planning the props that we would like to use in our horror opening.

We had to think about what best suited what our story line was going to be and to best fit in with our characters. 

So as an outcome to this let me explain the props that we have planned to use in within our horror opening:

 1. The Teddy Bear - We have decided to have a teddy bear which is going to be old and damaged this is going to link in with the idea about the past, which is what our story is going to be based around. The teddy bear will the resemble the idea of horror, as looking at most horrors, who include children they always include a child's toy so we decided to go with what a normal little girl would have and this is going to be a teddy. We wanted to to have the teddy bear as what the little girl is going to be holding throughout the opening and link this prop in with the out slogan of "The Past Never Let's Go"

2. Flowers - The second prop we have considered to use is some flowers, we have thought about these because in the opening we see our little girl going to visit her mum's grave, which the flowers that she is going to be holding is what she would place on her mum's grave. This would help the audience to understand that she is going to be holding and giving flowers out of sympathy, with them wondering what happened to her mum.

3. A Kitchen Knife - The final prop that we have considered for our opening is a kitchen knife. We have used this prop for the silhouette male in our opening who is going to be unseen, just to be seen as a shadow. So this knife that we are going to be including will have blood dripping at the end of the knife, which this prop will be included at the ending of our opening, this is because the camera is going to be closing in on the knife and lowering down to where the blood is dripping, with the company name "Archangels Productions" and the title of the film shall appear "Hunted". So by doing this at the end people would wonder why this strange silhouette male has a knife dripping with blood, maybe this could be a murder weapon?

The other equipment that we shall be needing is the filming schedule. This will be used to help out the directors for when they are needing to know what is happening when the filming is taking place, so they know what shots are happening and how long they are going to go on for, so needing this is a vital resource that we shall need.
