In any film that you watch there will be props used. Every film has some sort of prop whether its as simple as a phone or a broomstick in a witches film its still a prop. Below I will explain the research we did about props.
Why we research props?
We need to find out what props are available and if we can get them for when we need them to film. Also if we don't research then we don't know whether the prop will be the right one to use. As well as that if we use the correct props it shows the audience and gives them a better understanding of what we are trying to get across. If we research then we don't get the audience confused which is our overall aim.
The props we have chosen
IPhone - As a group we decided that a IPhone would be a good choice for a prop as both characters in our film are between 16 and 18 and a common stereotype that is associated with that sort of age is that they are always on their phone and don't stop using them. If someone see's you with a IPhone you would be classed as "well off" which is common wen people see Apple branded items because they are well known for being a expensive brand. As well as that we have chosen this because it is easy to access for when we need it.
TV Remote - As well as the IPhone we have also chosen the use a TV Remote as a prop. Another stereotype that people give when talking about teenagers is that they are moody and watch TV all day and we wanted to show this in our film. The TV Remote is a LG and this is a common remote that people would recognise easily when they see it.
And last of all our Official props list which will be embedded below ...
