Props & Costume List

Props and Costume list

Costume/Outfits:

·         White makeup

·         White gown/dress

·         White mask

·         leather boots

·         leather tights/jacket

From watching other Horror action Movies, we have realised that these costume/Outfits are all general conventions of the genre. For example in the film, 'Scary Movies' the killer wears a white mask and does not reveal their identity.

We added the leather wear to portray the action theme of the short film. For example in the action movie, 'Kill Bill' the main character is wearing all leather with a sword in her hand. In most action films, where females are shown as the hero/survivor they are usually wearing fitting black outfits, as in our movie. This helps to show that the woman in our film, will be the hero/survivor, and also helps to portray the personality of the character.

Props:

·         Red can [Budweiser](the item that disturbs the dead and begins the chase)

·         Frisbee/ball  (symbolizes the representation of a spoof)

·         Light saver (symbolizes the representation of a spoof)

·         Lights (used when filming in the dark to give the audience a clearer view)

·         Camera and tripod for filming (to enable the movie to be at its best)

 The Red Budweiser can is used as a warning to the audience, that there might be danger. Also, we are using the Budweiser can because of the content of our opening sequence where the characters playfully imitate the budwiser advert, which is also imitated in the 'Scary Movie'.


The light saver is taken from the sci fi action film/series, 'Star Wars', this is a random convention added to the movie to symbolise the representation of a parody.
