Account of props and original location

What we needed was the right clothes and then some little other things to show of the character in his house - so costime and props were important to show personality and status of ouir main character.
For example the skull that we had against the wall and the other things to show that he had travelled to Africa or somewhere exotic that brought back the evil force.

Another very important prop that we did need was the photos that had the black lines on them so we could get the continuity correct. We got are production designer Elektra to make the butterfly photos on photoshop and printed them on photographic paper, then borrowed lots of props like trays and tweezars from the science lab, and borrowed some statues from a teacher.

THE CHEMISTRY LAB WAS OUR ORIGINAL
LOCATION BUT WE DECIDED IT
LOOKED TOO MUCH LIKE A
SCHOOL, SO LOOKED FOR OTHER ROOMS.

These are the photos of our final dark room at LEITH HILL with the red head lights

We were annoyed that are shoot day changed which made the chemistry lab unavailable, but in a way this was better as we ended up shooting at are second choice which was 15 mins drive in a school minibus away. We were lucky that are school sponsored this so we didnt have to pay for transport or a driver directly, and we lent the house for free through a friend of a friend.

We used a red bulb and black bin bags to block the windows, and with props such as tray, tongs, string (for hanging photos), film negatives, projector, etc, the dark room looks very professional.

The photos on the wall shows his hobby clearly, and the souvenirs shows part of the protagonist’s personality which is like to travel around different places.

For costume, we prefer the idea of casual and a bit geeky T-shirt to show he's just a ordinary photographer, therefore evoke audiences' sympathy in this way or they would see him as an average guy.
