Use Of Props


In our production we have used few props due to the connotations raised by the use of many of them. The genre of our film generates a content that is not generally suitable for people under eighteen and as a result we have had to try a create suggestive scenes to create the image in the audiences mind rather than actually show the graphic detail.

We have however, decided to use a knife in a single shot but not with any reference as to how it is used in the films narrative. We are relying on the audiences prior knowledge to link the prop with the genre and then come to the conclusion as to what it may be used for. I play the individual who uses this prop in the film and just as a prior warning the scene may seem very intimidating but as a result the entire profile of the film is raised.

Other than this the film is largely dependant on the setting and narrative to tell the audience what is hapening on screen and as a result we have employed the use of a trained actor (Rafid Abdul Hussain) to play a role alongside myself to give a more proffesional appearence to the production.
