Props and Costumes

Props:
 Most of the props weren't difficult to get hold of because the film is being shot in a normal house setting. The location was hard to find for a while and we didn't find a place to film until a couple of days before we planned to film. In the end we filmed it in a room in my house. This meant that the big props like a sofa, a bookcase and a lamp were already in the room. This is a list of all the props we needed: 

• Coffee table
• Wine glasses
• Sofa
• Bookcase
• Tall lamp
• Cushions
• Carpet
• Knife

The wine glasses were easy to get hold of from a shop in Banbury. The carpet took a while to find but in the end we used one that was already in the room and just washed it after as we spilt wine and fake blood on it. 


Costumes:
 The costumes were quite easy to find as they are mostly normal clothes. Jacks costume:

• Black hooded jumper
• Black coat
• Black gloves
• Dark jeans
• Grey boots

Emels Costume:

• Jeans 
• Light pink top
• White jumper
• No shoes

The clothes were normal but the items were put together to create an image for each character. Jacks costume gives connotations of dark, mysterious and dangerous. The gloves show that he is careful about giving away clues to who he is and the hood means that we can't see his face so that the audience doesn't know who he is either. Emels costume gives connotations of good and feminine. The pink top shows that she is a stereotypical female and therefore more helpless and vulnerable to being attacked, she also is wearing no shoes showing that she is at home on a normal day.

Casting

 Casting wasn't much of an issue for my group and I because there are only two characters in our film opening. We had to find a woman that could scream well and look scared, this was also quite easy as we had already chosen Emel Yildirim as she is our friend and we knew she could act quite well and that we would get along well with her while filming. 
 Casting for the male part was difficult at first as we had no idea who would make a good character. We also didn't know many men who were good actors but in the end we decided to cast Jack as the man because he had the right clothes and he doesn't say anything in the opening so acting wasn't a big part of what he had to do. 
 The look we were going for when we picked these actors/actresses was that the man would be taller than the female therefore more likely to overpower her and that he would be the dominant character out of the two. 

Final Ident

This is the final ident that we chose to use in our film opening. We took one of the old ones and made changes to it from the comments we received in our questionnaire. I think that this ident is a good one for our film opening as it reflects the genre of our film (horror). The font used was one of our two top choices for the film title but we decided that it would be more appropriate for the ident and we chose the other font for our film title.
