CONSTRUCTION: MAKING PROPS

For our genre of film, verisimilitude is vital. We needed to have props that looked very convincing and mysterious, such as blood covered possessions that belonged to the cult. The most significant of these was an old foreign market stamp that we painted over with crimson in a patchy texture in order to emulate blood. this makes an important part of a shot in the trailer in which PI Andrews finds the mysterious object covered in blood, which gives clues to the investigation.

It ultimately enabled the film to look much more professional due to constructing our own props, and it flowed greatly in the scene in which it features rather than looking out of place.

  1. Excellent. The scene in which these props are used is most convincing: I was completely engaged when you screened it for the first time. This particular prop, covered in blood, may be a small part of the whole, but it reflects the care and creativity that you are bringing to your filming.
