Mixing ideas

 

 

 

The most compatible ideas are the first two (Gang film and a chase scene) as they can easily intertwine and also provide lots of positives to enable us to reach the highest marks. It also allows us to answer evaluation questions regarding social groups. We can make the genre accessible to a large audience as it isn’t as specific as the Rom-com or Teen Drama.

Planning-Props

Prop	Where and when will the prop be obtained	Cost	Who is responsible for getting it?	Who will be using it?  Where will it be placed?	Date and shot	Who will bring the prop to the shoot?	Notes
Handbag	Taylor’s house- will be obtained on the day of the shoot.	£0	Taylor	As Taylor is playing the victim in our film. Her mum will pass her the bag at the start and then she will be holding the bag throughout the film until she is attacked and the attacker takes it off of her at the end.	17th Shot 5-Shot 24	Taylor will as it is her personal handbag.	This gives the attacker something to attack the girl for, in addition for his initiation into the gang.
Mobile phone	Taylor’s personal phone	£0	Taylor	Taylor will be using it.	17th Shot of Taylor pressing play music on her phone.	Taylor will as she will need it anyway in case of emergency.	The phone is pink which gives a stereotypical girl vibe to the character.
