CONSTRUCTION: PROPS

For our film, we need to consider our props before we begin shooting. As we discussed what props may be needed we realised there are many. I have collated them into a list here with a collage of props we will use:

• Three letters of victims with names and faces

• Newspaper of Oliva Blake being 'Missing'

• Radio

• Handcufs

In the making of this prop, we used Photoshop. We infused a previous newspaper article which we drew from the internet as a template:

In the editing process, we inserted our own title and re-cut the template to fit that of a newspaper article. Furthermore, we decided to insert a screenshot from one of the laboratory scenes, We believe this created a clear link between the separate scenes. 

In creating a more realistic touch to the newspaper article, we printed an A3 sized copy and tinted the colouring of the paper, using the technique of tea bags. To finish it off, we then stuck it to the front page of an actual newspaper, exceeding the appearance to that of an actual newspaper. This prop was an essential part of our visual presentation. Not only did it provide a sense of credibility and professionalism to III DAYS, but contributed to the narrative; aiding the depth of understanding of our audience.
