Planning - Use Of Props

During the filming of The Final Bell we used many props our two main props being outlined below:

 The 'Gun'

     First I would like to declare:
        This is not a real gun!!

This is an airsoft pistol owned by a friend of one of the group members, The owner has a UKARA license which allows them to own said airsoft pistol. We used this prop as it is a realistic looking prop and would help add suspense and help to dramatize the trailer. While filming this with this prop the owner was on site and at no point did this prop leave the house where this was filmed ensuring it wasn't brought on to the school site where the rest of the film was shot.

The bag

This bag is owned by myself and was easily accessible for filming. This bag also fit the trailer and what we needed it for. This bag is suppose to represent a high school students bag. The bag is also a dark/bland colour therefore fitting the general feel of the film and also connoting a sad/eerie atmosphere.

 

The mask

The mask used by the character in our trailer belonged to Joe Cleveland, a member of the group. It was originally a plain black beanie to which we cut out eye holes and turned into a mask. This therefore makes it look homemade which also adds more of an atmosphere.
