Props and Costumes

Props

  • Fake Blood - This is for Evelyn at the end of the sequence, although we won't show violence in the actual sequence, the fake blood will help to create the idea that her death was horrific, violent and gruesome
  • Logs/Blankets - We'll use either logs or blankets for the group to sit around the fire
  • Fake Knife/Weapon - This is for the killer to use on the shot where they walk up to Evelyn as she crawls away
  • Cans/Plastic Cups - For the group to use in order to create the effects of a typical teenage party
  • Cameras (x3) - These will be used by the group 
  • Guitar - Evelyn uses this at the beginning of the sequence, but later gives this to an unnamed character in the background of a shot, so it doesn't seem obvious that she's walked away from the group
  • Speakers - To play music in the background of the party, like the plastic cups and cans this creates the idea of a typical teenage party
On the day we'll also have to bring something in order to make the fire, although these things won't be shown in the actual sequence

Costumes


The main characters and the extras in the background will all be wearing casual, everyday clothing such as T-shirts, jeans, shorts, etc. These costumes have the connotations that the group are just typical teenagers, and by wearing similar types of clothing each it makes sure that none of them stand out to a degree that they no longer look like they belong as part of the group. By making them look average, it makes the plot more realistic, creating the impression that their situation could happen to anyone, including the average audience member.
