Props, Costume, Location & Script

We used this tri-pod in our film so we had a steady camera when we was filming. This really helped us thought out our filming period. This will also show that I have leant to use a tri-pod when filming and the use of this makes the whole opeing sequence much better to view.
This is the video camera we used when we filmed our thriller opening sequence. Everyone in the group had a go at filming a part of our opening sequence. This also show that I can now work a video camera now.
We used this prop in our film to help the killer to draw a detailed picture of Donna. This made the view think more about this few second shout in our film and I think it had a good impact on the audience opinion on our film.
We used this prop to cut out pictures of Donna and to cut peaces of string and other materials to put into our film and for them to play a big part of the killers personality.
This prop was used to stick peaces of the pictures of Donna together. This helped the film to flow better and we was able to see what the picture looked like in the first place.
We used this prop to hold some important parts of our prop pictures together so we didn't lose any and by us using this we had all the bits we needed to make our film flow though out the 3 minutes of it.
This prop was used to stick part of the picture together and for the string to be held on the photo but with out the audience knowing it wasn't really stuck. This help the group to make the film to our best ability.
We used these props to mark Donnas house on the map so the audience could see that the killers planed her capture well and that he knew it was going to be successful. This prop is very small but in our opeing sequence this small pin played a very big part and that was to stand out when it was on the screen and for the audience to know what it was as soon as they saw it.

In today’s lesson we decided to plan what props we are going to use, what costume Donna and the killer is going to wear and why (what the costume represents and how it reflects the character’s personality) as well as planning our location, script, shooting schedule and character description for our opening description. These photos above are some of the props we used to help us put our film together.

Props & Costumes

Props

Knives – We are using this prop to represent one of the pieces of weaponry that the killer is planning on using

Photographs – We will be using many photographs to show how many people the killer has killed.

Costumes

Donna (Jessica) – Will be wearing light colors to represent her innocence.

Shehabur – Will be wearing black to represent an evil and sinister demeanor.

Location

Morden Park – We will be using this location when someone driving his or her car sees the victim and when she is running away from her potential killer.

PDH/DH3 – This location will be used when the killer is laying out and planning what weaponry to use to carry out the killing of the protagonist. We will use this because it will be a good effect for our use of light and the uses of darkness and shadows.

Script

Although there is going to be no dialogue in our opening sequence we felt it was necessary to devise a script to show what sound effects and music we will be using.

Sound of cutting with a knife and the killer drawing a picture of the main character in our film. This will be use in our film to make it more real and gripping to watch.

Devised Piece of Music – We will be using a personally created piece of music so that it is original and has not been used before in previous thriller films. This will make our film more special and our own peace of music. This will also show our had work and effort we put into it.
