Finalised Script for Our Film

We have acquired the Props!

We have now brought in all the props we need for filming. As a group we have all contributed and brought in all the props that were available: we can now see that our film will look very exciting and intriguing for the audience with the diverse range of props acquired! Here are some of the main props we will use:

 Costumes! We now have a balaclava, a number of bandannas and scarfs, army vests and even a wig. By raiding our school's drama prop room we were able to find numerous amounts of suitable props we could use in our film, for instance, the army vests, trousers and a wig. All of this clothing will be worn by the terrorist actors and will create a realistic and intimidating portrayal of these characters.

 

Here are the replica guns we will be using. These look extremely realistic and will tell the audience that these terrorists are not messing around! These props will be essential to create an exciting and thrilling conveyance of the scenes.

An extra additional prop is the terrorist banner, which I created myself! Making this banner took a long period of time: using a large white piece of cloth as a base I then outlined bold Arabic writing onto it and filled it in with a thick, black, board marker. I got the template of the Arabic writing by using Google Translate and adding the statement "I will find you and I will kill you." from here I could copy it onto the cloth. Once this was finished it looked intensely effective and I knew it would look fantastic as a prop in our film!

We also have a costume for the hostage, this is a plain white shirt which we have covered in red food colouring to give the effect of stained blood - gruesome!

Another extremely important prop - the briefcase. We have now got a silver metal briefcase to represent the sacred stainless steel object which everyone desires to have.

We also acquired other miscellaneous props such as the ransom video camera, the tools of torture and the torturers costume. The ransom video camera was a prop that was found in school - this camera was very old and didn't work, nevertheless, it worked great as a prop! The tools of torture were random tools that were available and brought in by all of us - this made up a hefty bulk of crude and sinful torture tools that we knew would look very menacing and horrific. The tortures costume consisted of an apron and dust mask - we covered the apron and dusk mask in red and brown paint to represent blood and dirt. This will create a creepy and terrifying portrayal of this character.
